For Leisure Day, I got Velma & family a swimming pool and a hot tub, so they could throw a pool party. Their backyard is on the tiny side, so I didn't do any fancy decking around it or anything like that. Just, whatever your expectations may be here? Lower them.
The stupid cop who never, ever apprehends Velma's burglar invited herself. The other hat-wearer here is their mailperson.
Felix's boss, Ericka Berge. They're best friends. Ericka has sent several letters indicating she'd be up for more than that, but too bad, granny, he's taken.
The house has done a 180 from "the mail is full of letters and presents from would-be suitors for Velma," to, well, this.
Her own mother!
Maybe Vivienne isn't really a man-stealer, but her daughter has all the makings of one.
Back to the party! This guy who looks familiar also invited himself. I don't think either Velma or Felix has ever met him. EA Story Progression must be tired of him not having any friends. Come on in and make yourself at home then, Gunnar.
As the guests said their goodbyes, Velma and Felix relaxed in the hot tub.
Undine spent most of the party working on her sculpting--she had wishes to! It's not that I'm mean. (Much.) She ended the day with her first-ever painting, the classic pink monster one.
In four generations of this goofy family, I think this has been my most successful Leisure Day ever. Usually they're kind of disasters, to be out-disastered only by Snowflake Day. Great job, guys.
Ericka Berge is the major of my little village, but in my game she is also constantly preggers so I made her look a little bit more motherly I guess? The type that always has whatever you need in her handbag and also gifts everyone woolen mittens she knitted when she was stressed. But I also tried to make her look more sassy srs bsn lady who gets shit done, because she totz does. Her posse is made entirely out of chicks and if that doesn’t help with getting things done then I don’t know what does.
Simon Adamsson is Ericka’s other half and they basically got married right after I plopped them down in my game. I like Simon because I didn’t have to mess around with his face much since he wasn’t a bad egg to begin with. Just needed a little squishing down and his mouth widened, plus a little darker eyebrows. He looks like a worrier now (thanks to his new eyebrows) which he should be with the amount of babies they are popping! Like gosh dude, wrap it up already, Ainali cannot sustain this kind of population growth! Why won’t anyone think of the planet!?
