Kessler/Year 2/Week 4/Day 6

Oh I see how it is!  It's first thing in the morning and Tanika who can never find time to actually go out with her girlfriend Alex has plenty of time to pal around the park with Stacia, whom she just met last night!  Meanwhile, Britta worked all day and is ready to go home and take a shower!  Apparently Bucktooth decided to pop up in the bathroom today..so random..LOL!

Stacia just went to bed after her long night last night.

Rasheed was working so Britta just bummed around on the computer before going to bed herself.  

Time to leave the girls for now and see where story progression takes them!  Meanwhile, Anaya Dexter has given birth to son Emmanuel.  They look like they don't know quite what to do with a baby..lol!

Kessler/Year 2/Week 4/Day 5

The sun is rising and there was a lovely pinkish glow to the frost on the house!

Britta is up and reading a book while ignoring Stacia.

It looks like both girls have earned raises!  Good job!

The work day is over.  Britta invited Rasheed over and Stacia is off to the Yellow Lab to try to meet new friends.  It looks like Tanika Bateman is here along with Brendan Hayward, Kelly Brady and Alice Dubose, who is reading a book at the bar..LOL!

Hey! Antoine Smalley is performing again tonight!  Stacia decided to stay for the show and it looks like Corinne Watt is here too!  Busy place tonight!

The Residents

Here are the households that I may check in on from time to time, but won’t be playing in rotation.  They are all housed throughout Thicket and many have roles such as stylists or coworkers of my played sims!  For the most part, I don’t do a ton to the majority of my sims except get rid of crazy hair or super crazy outfits.  I kinda like the variety of sims I get and usually let them match themselves up as well.  All of these sims aside from the Fields are pretty much as they spawned.  I did some sculpting to Tamsen Field’s face to make her look more unique and I thinned and buffed Dean really because I thought he was a clone of Randal Stark until I downloaded the cc skins and eyes I use and realized they look nothing alike!

The Baron Family:  Clayton Baron, his fiancé Monica Ernst and their new baby Tyree along with dog Snaggles, who is obviously hungry for hotdogs!

The Betancourt family: Serena and her fiancé Kirby Cho.  I’ll probably check in on them more than some of the others :)

The Cabral family: Dwayne and Betsy with daughter Rebekah and dog Scout.  They own the farm with greenhouse that I posted a picture of.  My intent is that they will sell produce and flowers from their farm or at one of the local commercial lots.

The Cannon family.  Darrel Cannon and his fiancé Tanya Schipano.  They are both stylists in Thicket.

The DeLuca’s: Dereck was a werewolf, but I didn’t want to have a ton of supernatural stuff in this play through.  Shawn, his wife, is the boss of Lynne Beckwith which is the first family up in rotation. Their daughter Mara and dog, Lady.

The Dowling’s: Nicholas and Corinna.  Nicholas is best friends with another townie Dan Waggoner.  Corinna was the first of about 5 Corine, Corina ect spawned by the game so most of them had their names changed, but it fit her so I left it!

The Field’s: Dean and Tamsen are both Drs.

The Gold family: Lyle and Randi with son Clyde and dog Sheba.

The Hastings Family:  Shad is the local detective and Rena works as a desk clerk at the spa.

The Haywood family:  Brendon Haywood is the local architectural designer and just moved in with girlfriend Hilda Winstead.

The Hillards:  Armand (Armie for short) is a chef at the Three Sirens restaurant which he owns and his wife Shelley Huey-Hillard is the highest ranking official at the City Hall.  They have just had their first child, Brett Huey Hillard.

The Holm family: Brennon, who is the brother to Quinton Holm an NPC and his wife Marcie.  They have recently adopted a kitten, Nona.

The Jacques family:  Jamie, Audrey and Donny Jacques.  Jamie is kind of the town loon.

The Pullen’s:  Joel Pullen and Kelly Fuentes-Pullen, newlyweds.  Kelly is the sister of Bryce Fuentes an NPC and they are apparently always getting together because they pop up on my sp all the time as family reunion and sharing the town gossip!

The Runyon family:  Domingo Runyon and another one of the Corinne’s I kept.  Corinne Watt.  I had moved these two single sims in together with the intention they would wind up together, but they’ve been shaking up my planned stories the past couple of days!!

The Sheldon family:  Boy do Cecil and Beverly have their hands full!  She had just given birth to baby Ferra when I finished my world testing and got the rotation set up and surprise!  she had a second baby, Ifran two days into the rotation!  I really need to get the pregnancy tuner set up so my sims aren’t cranking out kiddos every other day!

The Spaulding family:  Joel Spaulding and Shauna Watkins.  Best friends and maybe more along with master hunter Egon the cat.

The Waggoner family: Dan Waggoner (best friend of Nick Dowling) and his fiancé Michelle Torrez.  Dan is also pretty good friends with Vance McKay and Carlos Munoz who are both in the rotation.

The Wells family:  Bryon and Lisa were roommates of Norman Davies before he met Gwen.  As you can see, Lisa is fond of cats :) Mackie is the mother with kittens Dink, Elijah and Mittens

The Westmoreland family: Arthur and Bernice (who can be a little demanding) along with their cat Maggie and roommate Tanika Bateman.  Tanika is the only EA roommate I haven’t deleted as she is the girlfriend of Alexandria Newcomb and will likely play a much larger role in the play through unless sp has other plans :)
