The Klein family fifteen sim days later

The Hayashi family over the years
and my only self-made super rich family without cheats and net worth of +200k simoleons

(sorry for bad quality pics, for some reason I didn't bother to screenshot them and only used the Snapshot tool from the game)

(Yeah, I know it's a bit early with Xmas-theme, but right now my low-CC game is either Halloween or Xmas, take your pick - I'm just pretending they're early birds with their Xmas cards )

An updated photo of my 10-children family. Two of those children are elders now! One of them is long dead, and another is still forever single.

I had to take the photo at a higher angle because some of the kids' faces would not be on frame properly, but I still like it

The latest family photo of the only playable sims currently in my hood. They might well be the family i've stuck with the longest in all my years of playing and I'm so happy about it. Framing these photos and placing them in sims homes really helps keep me motivated with how sweet it is to see the family changing in the pictures.



Only a few sims missing; my founder's spouse, Oscar and a son, Richard from the third gen, he became a vampire(another thing I've rarely done) and then ended up dying pretty quickly thanks to me testing out some supe mods. Richard had a son who was already living with grandparents prior to his death, the pleasure/romance vamp did not make for a doting father. Oh and the wedding couple have two new daughters already in addition to Olivia (from Emilio's prev marriage), one adopted child and one newborn.

For some tea: Maria and Lee were married for 26 years, but the second their daughter (Silvia) went off to college, Maria decided to kick her secondary romance butt into gear and, well, her affairs got caught. While I hoped for reconciliation, that was not apparently in Lee's interest though Maria wished for it a bit. It's been 8 years and they're quite amiable now.... unlike Maria with her niece Laura. I haven't a clue what went on between them when Laura was still a teen but they cannot be in the same lot without seeking each other out to fight. Thankfully there are many niblings and grandbabies to distract them with now lmao.

Are those a collage of photobooth pictures?

Kind of It's the photobooth/loading screen poses and I took the photos myself. Then I made the collage and printed it out with the university camera.

@Justpetro : Just to prove that I am seriously thinking of entering your contest, here is Josh Anderson, who has just moved into a new house at 153 Bond Street, Monopolis by Veronaville, with his wife Monica and his daughter Fiona. For the avoidance of doubt (in view of his long hair etc.) that's Josh on the right. He's thinking that Bond Street might be a good location for a small manufacturing and retail business.

The house is of course a new-build in the Veronavillesque style by Jones & Moltke Ltd, the same firm that he intends to engage to build his new shop.

The prominent building in the background is the Shaftesbury Club, Monopolis's own sumptuous nightclub, that can save residents having to take a trip downtown..

Very cool, @AndrewGloria Hope to see you entering.

My daughter has been playing Sims recently, here is the family she plays:

Her simself, and her husband.
Her simself is actually a CAS pacifier roll created from mine & hubs simselves but it does surprisingly look a lot like her. She modeled her husband after her "crush" (they're 6, but insist they're going to get married one day ) - I hate simselves in my game unless the person explicitly asks for one, so he's just face 2. I gave him a recessive blonde gene just to make the offspring more interesting since her simself is basically face 2 with slight modifications.


and their 6 children;
Oldest son Adam, then Dave (blue shirt), Elden (stripe jumper), Tim (green jumper) and twins Sarah (redhead) and Cassie (blonde, but naturally redhead)

Everybody has such beautiful families .

Me and my daughter had so much fun with her family, that my son also wanted a go... So here he is. I also gave him a wife


also me and my husbands simselves, as elders. Turns out I made my simself so long ago I hadn't yet downloaded the fixed face templates


I used Sim blender to link my daughters simself to the family, together we have nine grandchildren
In order: Adam, Dave, Elden, Tim, Sarah
Next row: Cassie, Poppy, Sally & Rosie (originally named "Duck Baby" by my son)


One big family photo

One on the way? I noticed the empty picture frame.

Did you get any kittens?

Daughter adopted 2 kittens, Socks and Stephanie - They've since grown into adult cats. She keeps asking if we can marry the cats to make them have kittens.

Spare picture frame is because daughter wants to try out the adoption mechanisms on the game, so eventually they'll be a grandkid #10 but for now she's wanting kittens.

Kittens are cuter anyway. XD

Giuseppi Renni and his family. Giuseppi (red checker shirt), his wife Olivia (green suit), their two adult children Francis (red dress shirt) and Penelope (red sweater). Francis' wife Katherine (pink sun dress) and their child Bebe (yellow/green overalls). Penelope's husband Dennis (green checker shirt) and their child Drake (dark blue top).

Giuseppi and Olivia are elders in the shot currently, but for chronological reasons will be dead of old age at the start of the gameplay. This family is made for my Old Town 2049 project...

The Flores family celebrating their daughter's engagement with baked Alaska (and toasts!). Happy couple Becky Flores (pink top) and Lainey Barthalet (white top) are visiting Nick, Sylvia and Caroline at Flores' vacation home in Twikkii Island. Caroline for whatever reason has to discuss breakfast food with Lainey.

In my ongoing effort to get the hang of poses, here's some snapshots of my college-bound households:

Lola, Chloe, and Pascal


Vidcund and Erin


Lyla and Circe

The couple caressing hands are the lovely hosts to this family dinner. She invited her father, her cousin and his family, and her younger cousin (the brother of the other). Her mother recently passed away but the mother's ghost was a former Broadway star and too much of an attention seeking diva to be allowed to stay haunting the home and was promptly moved to the family mausoleum. Oh and the couple has twin toddlers off in the corner, eating their mush.

Gerard Paton, Nancy Philippine, and her little brother Scot join me in wishing a Very Happy New Year to you all, and of course to all your Sims!

Having had to visit them yesterday to check some details when replying to Pinkdynamite's Story Dilemma post, I decided to spend some quality time with them on New Year's Day. Young Scot is asking, if it's only juice that they're drinking like Maxis say, why can't he have a glass too?
