Rowbottom P1

Makenna has moved on to a 40x30 lot in Willow Creek. This is a house that I built and put only the necessities in for her. She has roughly $1,000. I realized that I forgot to put the flamingos in her yard at first but have since corrected that. I just didn't take another photo showing it.

The Welcome Wagon had come to say hello. 

I don't think the Landgraab's appreciated how sparse Makenna's furnishings are. 

Makenna got straight into training Nika once her guests left. 

The first trick she taught her was to roll over. 

Nika picked it up quickly as she is a smart dog.

Makenna really needs some money and since I didn't see anything in the rules about making money she went to the park to fish. She only caught two fish because her skill is minimal but sold them for some extra cash.

Next on her to do was finding frogs. 

Breeding them could help bring in some fast cash.

She got lucky and found a rare one for $100.

The Humor and Hijinks Festival is in town and Makenna joined the pranksters side.

She is flashing crazy eyes at this guy and got a little too close.

Father Winter sat next to Makeena as she was trying Brochette for the first time. 

Not sure is she doesn't like the food or Father Winter???

Because the pranksters won Makenna was able to sell everything and make a nice bit of cash.

Back home I had Makenna buy the herbalism book and get a jump start on the skill. I then realized that I did not pick Outdoor Retreat as one of the bonuses to play, lol.

Makenna wanted to take Nika to the dog park for some training. Unfortunately it was during a thunderstorm and Nika was too busy watching the sky to pay attention to training.

Then lightening struck close to Makenna and she was able to claim a gem worth $160.

Before heading home Makeena begrudgingly introduced herself to a few others braving the storm at the park.

Back home the weather was great so Makenna taught Nika how to fetch.

She caught on quickly.

As Makenna was about to head of to find more collectibles Nika pee'ed and then played in the puddle.

Makenna promptly turned around and scolded Nika for playing in the puddle.

Of course she then had to give her smooches because she could never be mad at that precious face!

Hope you enjoyed!
Thanks for stopping by :)

Rowbottom's Wacky World Intro

Hello out there!

I am starting a new challenge called the Officially Wacky Boolprop Challenge. 

If you are reading this then you are most likely familiar with the challenge so I will spare you all the details. If by chance you are not aware of this challenge then click the link above for a description.

This is the founder Makenna Rowbottom and her dog Nika.

Aspiration - Big Happy Family

Traits - Outgoing, Unflirty, Cat Lover

The 3 bonuses I picked are as follows:

City Living (9 points total) -all of these begin with the first generation-

• Have at least one sim per generation attend AND participate in each festival at least once. They must engage in the activities offered and be there for most of the festival. 
• One sim per generation must visit each food truck and eat all recipes. They must earn the hidden traits of Spice Hound and Chopstick Saavy. This sim would be exempt from the Grilled Cheese bonus challenge (if you are doing both) only when eating from a food truck.

I also picked 4 Mini Challenges -eek-

2. Family Scrapbook
3. On Ley, Not the Lonely
4. Collector

I hope you all enjoy coming along with me on this new little adventure. We shall see how it goes! I am terrible at starting with no money and such. I like my sims to start out in nice big beautiful homes and then be broke, lol, so yeah it's already a challenge for me.

Thanks for checking it out!

Gen 4 Kai & Blake P2

When the house loaded up I got a notification that Kai has completed his aspiration. He now has a new of fabulously wealthy. He was also working out, like always.

Kenzie popped by for a visit and she was feeling tense so Kai helped her calm her emotions.

Tabitha called Blake for a date.

They went out to dinner and had a few drinks.

Before they left Blake proposed to Tabitha.

She said yes.

Blake invited her over and you all know what happened next.

The next morning Blake told Kai the good news.

"Bro, you really need to meet someone."

Kai decided that Blake was right. He did need to meet someone but the problem was he spent all his time at work or the gym. Then he thought the gym might be a good place to look. He could meet someone that likes to workout as much as him.

Unfortunately when he got there all the ladies were related to him. His mother, step-mother, and sisters were all there. 

He figured he could at least make some new friends while there.

Chatted up Leo before getting ready to leave. Kai wasn't feeling so good at the moment and wanted to head home.

On his way out he ran into this lady but she turned out to be a vamp and Kai ran as fast as he could away from her.

Blake had an urge to fish. He lit a bonfire before hand to keep him warm.

Kai has been promoted to Personal Trainer.

This is Ira the mail lady.

When Kai saw her out the window he decided to head out and introduce himself. She was cute and figured it wouldn't hurt to get to know her.

They watched the clouds together and talked for hours.

Kai decided to make a move.

Ira was definitely in to it.

That evening they had their first kiss.

Kai invited her to stay the night.

They enjoyed themselves.

"Yeah, so that happened."

"It was nice getting to know you."

Kai had to head off to work and Blake came out to introduce himself.

Uh oh, I think they risky woohoo'd because that is morning sickness.

Blake called up Tabitha and invited her to the Flea Market.

Blake's mother called him a little later and asked if he wanted to go with her. He told her he was already there so to head down and meet up with him and Tabitha.

That evening when Kai got home from work he invited Ira over.

He was smitten.

"Yeah so, Kai, I am pregnant and it's yours."

"I guess that means you should move in so I can take care of you."

Ira now lives with Kai and Blake.

Well I didn't see that coming when I started this file.

Hope you enjoyed!

Gen 4 Kenzie P2

Kenzie gets lonely often so I thought it would be good for her to have an animal. She seemed more like a cat person to me so she adopted a cat.

This is Xena.

Kenzie absolutely loves her.

This is a new masterpiece.

Gerard called and invited Kenzie over.

While there she met her new brother and sister.

While she was at her dad's Blake called and asked her to come over.

"Can you believe dad and Macie had two more kids!"

Then Kenzie started wishing to take a million pics

Selfie time

Can't leave out Kai in the photo fest.

She is walking home from her brother's house and unfortunately because it's the sims 4 it will load before she can go in. That is the one thing that irritates me the most about TS4. They could at least make the neighborhoods open world.

Kenzie woke up feeling sad and wanted to get it out on canvas. I actually like this painting for some reason so instead of selling it she hung up in her room.

This lighthouse painting is a masterpiece.

Kenzie thought she would try to sell some of her paintings in a yard sale. After 5 hours a few people came by to look but no one bought anything. I think it's because most of them are masterpieces and expensive. She finally gave up and just sold them all to the art gallery. 

Xena had been in heat and Kenzie felt bad for her so she adopted a male cat to be Xena's spouse. This cute guy here is Geppetto.

As soon as Kenzie put Geppetto down Xena checked him out and they mated in less than an hour, lol

Geppetto looks mighty pleased with himself, haha

Kenzie went for a late night jog. 

One of Kenzie's friends from school called and invited her to a dance party.

She ran into her dad and Stephan while there.

Oh Macie, what the hell did they game put you in!

Lol

Grimm showed up right before Kenzie left.

I don't know what got in her head but she wanted to flirt with him and ended up giving him a rose. If your grandmother could see this she would be rolling over in her grave! Don't you know he is the family enemy! Leave it to Kenzie to fall for Gimm.

This is another master piece and the painting that helped her complete her aspiration. She now has the friend of animals aspiration.

Delaine stopped by for a visit. 

She was embarrassed about something.

Kenzie looks a lot like her mother.

Xena has finally gone into labor and just in the nick of time. Geppetto is giving her some comfort during labor. I thought that was really cute.

They had one little kitty, a boy named Scotch.

Daddy is giving his little guy some love. 

Not sure how Scotch got that coloring.

He is cute though.

Hope you enjoyed!
