Today is brawl day and Laith just got done fighting his cousin.
Octavia and Miguel's faces are priceless.


Then Octavia was happy that they hugged it out.


Oh come on Miguel!
You shouldn't be horrible at cooking ... you are level 5 for goodness sake!


He wouldn't listen and everyone came to watch so I thought he was a goner.
Thankfully Octavia saved her man.


Birthday time for the twins.

Happy Birthday Paxton!


He is an art lover and dog lover now.


Happy Birthday Petra!


She is cheerful and unflirty... odd combo, lol.


Octavia and Miguel finished off the party at the park with random bush woohoo.


Octavia is level 9 vet skill.
Time to work at the clinic for that last bit of skill.


and she is done!

Also the clinic is at 4 stars!


Today is lottery day and I almost missed it because she was powering through the clinic.
Managed to grab two tickets between her and Miguel.
They didn't win though :(


The honey is coming out great quality.


After her stressful day at the clinic she needed to relax and unwind.


Her parents ghosts are always breaking shit when they come out.


Family day at the pool for fourth of July.


Cannonball


The was pretty good.
Now let's try a swan dive ...


that was ... not so good, lol.


The kiddo's are eating the BBQ mom made.


Dad is more interested in napping then hanging out.


All the kids played with sparklers when it started getting dark.





Poor Paxton got sick but managed to play with his anyway.


Petra just stood there and held hers, lol.


Everyone else actually played with theirs though.





Thanks for reading!

As the second heir vote is going up after this post I feel like it's time to check in and see how I am doing so far with keeping up on all the sections I picked for this challenge.

    1. Ongoing- one relic built, none used

Now back to the family ...

The kiddos are working on their projects for school.


This is Kendall and she is Laith's friend from school.
I think he has a crush and if he doesn't become heir this will be his wife.


Octavia is at GeekCon.
While there she took a few photos with Cos-players.


She then took a trip to space and found an alien.


It's finally time for the last set of twins to age up.

Happy Birthday Ryder!


Happy Birthday Regina!


Ryder gained the geek trait.


Regina gained the neat trait.


Octavia is level 9 in the vet skill so I think it is okay to take a break from that and work on uncovering some of these artifacts. She needs to find the whole collection ... well she doesn't but that's my goal. After uncovering the few in her inventory she has found 3 of what she needs so now the family has 4 out of 16 found.


Oh Ryder, you better not ruin that tablet.


You clean this mess up right now young man.
There are plenty of things for you to do besides make a mess.


Well, if the paint didn't ruin it the mop certainly will, lol.


Laith is doing his homework with Regina ... sort of, he is actually making his book talk.
Which I've never seen before!


Regina is getting to know grandma.


Um, Makenna, I don't think you should be spraying the cleaner on the bed while the kids are sleeping. Looks like she is angry cleaning ... I can relate, haha.


Arlo has been out half the night and couldn't make it home to sleep.
He will need a bath when he makes it back.


Octavia is back in Selvadorada to find more collectibles.


Her archaeology skill is at level 6 right now.
She finds a lot of new stuff to uncover.


Got the main treasure of the temple worth $10,000 simoleons.


Putting together a watcher relic.


Now she just needs to refine a crystal to put it inside.
That is being saved for another time.




Thanks for reading.

Makenna is here and cooking tonight.


It's fall and there is a chill in the air so why do you have Regina in the dang pool!
Her face is really cute though and she seems to be having fun.


Ahh, Miguel you are the best.


A little park fun before the weather gets really cold.
Miguel is not the best skater yet.


Laith didn't play at all.
He chatted with mom the whole time.


Why have I never seen this before?!


Spice festival time and they all enter the curry challenge.


Octavia won!


She ate Bhei Puri, which she really liked.


Miguel practiced his music for all to hear.


Octavia then ate curry again and chatted with her brother.


With that meal she has received the Spice Hound trait.


Oh no, Bella's time is up.
RIP Bella
She learned all the tricks and Octavia is maxed in her training skill.


Even though the family didn't need another dog it just doesn't feel right not having one now.
Welcome to the family Arlo.


Birthday time for Octavia.


These two couldn't wait until they got home for some birthday woo..... you know


Again with the tot in the pool on a cool day!


Ofelia doesn't seem happy about auntie Octavia putting her in there.


It is birthday time for Laith.
Happy Birthday Laith!


He gained the insider trait.




Thanks for reading!
