🌼🌷Flower Legacy Challenge🌹🌻

I wanted to play a legacy challenge with color themes like the Not So Berry Challenge, but with a flower theme! This is mostly for me to keep track of my future generations, but anyone is welcome to play!

Each generation "ends" when their heir ages into a young adult.

My globetrotter sim through the years

I was going through my screenshots and was reminded of this icon

Honestly loved the globetrotter challenge so much that Im considering doing the spellcaster section of it as well as the vampire one. Ive also been thinking about possible ways I could extend the globetrotter even more. I could have her go to university and stuff like that.

Could also redo the Mt Komorebi section with Jenn. I started the globetrotter challenge with a different sim before my computer decided to end itself along with all my tray files and saves.

Theodore's birthday party was a complete disaster. His grandmother started a huge argument and in the end, Heaven and Knox were fighting. I had to investigate and found out that Knox was flirting with another Sim and had a crush on his mother-in-law. He tried to hit on Rachel and Heaven was devastated. I had no choice but to divorce them.
