To those who have returned, welcome back to the Champagne Legacy. Again, I apologise for the long hiatus between posts. My real life is more hectic than even I can imagine, and the joys of renting are that you get poor internet connection. Anyway, for the next two weeks I’m stealing mum’s internet so the aim is to get a post a day (we’ll see how this turns out). On with the story…
** Sunday **
Not one to let a family death get in the way of skilling, the girls, Paige & Brooke, were sent to their easels to continue painting.
Again, Brooke continues to show more talent than her twin.
“Hey, I heard that!”
Selena spent the day playing guitar outside city hall, while Chace practiced chess on the computer.
Ethan spent the morning fixing the garden before heading down to City Hall to meet up with Doris Olivas. She wanted to introduce him to her little sister, Francis (really I had him spouse hunting, and I figured it wouldn’t hurt to have options).
** Monday **
Ethan woke early, or to be honest, was woken early, so he could introduce himself to his mother, Aisha. They got along quite well, and spent many sim hours passing jokes between them.
For breakfast, Paige decided to try grapes for the first time. I think she enjoyed them..
When Chace returned from work, he was sporting a nice set of pink scrubs.
Drama at the hospital Chace?
“Yes, someone stole all the linen”
…
On a positive note, Chace was also able to max athletic skill today!
As per usual, the children came home to another fundraiser being held.
Ethan was not happy as he was told to entertain his cousin, Kurt, who had aged into a YA.
Kurt aged out of some of his ‘mother’s genes’, to put it politely.
His little sister Carly, however, was not so fortunate.
Ethan, where are your manners?
“What? You said it yourself, she’s unfortunate looking”
…
Despite making that face at nearly every guest who attended, Ethan did not prevent his mother from making $30, 938 in campaign funds.
** Tuesday **
Selena was sent to the library to work on her charisma.
While at work, Chace was given a payrise. After solving the case of the missing hospital linen, he was also promoted to Triple Agent.
Ethan gardened, and the girls painted.
** Wednesday **
I see you are improving Paige..
Chace, in need of report-worthy information, was sent to rummage in his neighbour’s garbage.
Selena was promoted to Vice President, so to celebrate she threw another fundraiser.
Chace used it as an opportunity to catch up with his twin, Penn. And if you’re wondering why the computer is broken, their friendly neighbour Carrie Bradshaw broke it.
Selena wowed her guests with her amazing guitar playing.
And the guests were obviously wowed, as they donated $41, 646 to her campaign.
** Thursday **
Finally, another birthday. Thursday was Ethan’s YA birthday, so Selena threw him a birthday/fundraiser party. All of the family was invited.
Rosanna, Penn’s daughter, was one of the first to arrive.
Shea, Ashlee’s husband, arrived in all of his Elder glory.
As with all of her parties, Selena’s party was well attended.
Matt’s three children, Kurt, Carly and Teresa, attended the party. They do not seem to be the most polite family. Kurt and Teresa spent the entire party booing, pointing and laughing at Carly. I suspect it is because she is insane, but still..
Despite everything, Selena’s party managed to raise $47, 743.
More importantly, Ethan because quite the attractive YA.
** Friday **
Ethan’s first task was to sign up at the local science facility. Hooray for being a test subject.
Chace was asked to read “Keep ‘em Guessing” for work.
Selena was sent to play for tips outside the theatre. While there we spotted Shea, his son Bryce, and nephew Kurt all together. Family outing to the theatre anyone?!
The theatre’s security for the evening, Tobin Moreland, passed away. Although never meeting him before, Selena mourned him. And for some reason, I just don’t trust Kurt…
On a positive note, Selena did complete the Super Friendly Skill Challenge.
** Saturday **
I let Chace spend the day catching up with relatives. He’s worked so hard..not.
First stop was at the Crosby’s to congratulate them on a slew of birthdays. Latasha was an elder, and Bambi was a teen.
Next it was off to visit Ashlee, who had elder-fied.
Unlike Matt’s children, Ashlee’s were very friendly. Bryce cornered Chace in the bathroom to discuss law-related things.
Karissa, in the meantime, wanted to introduce Uncle Chace to her new beau, Brayden, or Branden..
Back at the legacy house, Ethan gardened, Paige worked out, and Brooke painted.
Till next time (tomorrow!!)
Happy Simming
