Speaking of family portraits, I realized I never posted a season’s end round-up with everyone’s pictures. So here are all the portraits from the spring rotation, a.k.a., the baby boom. “Current” portraits of the summer rotation are at the Pine Lake page.
This time my favourite is absolutely the Moonbeam/Williamson/Lee shot around the campfire, but there are plenty of very close runners-up, including the Bratfords (somehow they’re always in my top 3) and Moritzes on their truck. (Posing pets is hard, so I’m pretty proud of Bandit there!) Oh, and honourable mention for the Rubens because I really like the setting and how TikTok is watering the cat. :o)

Last time with the Swain 2 family:
- They were very poor, and all money earned went immediately into furnishing their too-big home. There was a lot of digging, painting, and vying for promotion. - Leif schmoozed the mayor for a new job as Ambassador's Intern (meaning he's switched over to the Adventure career). - Erika grew up and had a family limbo party for her birthday. - Sam and Zelda officially started dating. (He later moved in with her.) - Natasha got a job in Education. - Leif and Natasha finally got married. The wedding was a big success!
Last time at the animal shelter:
- Sophronia spent most of her time training her furry friends. - Cordelia came for a visit and the sisters talked about relationships, babies, and animals, of course. - Only one pet was adopted out (Cog the cat by Allegra Gorey) but plenty of walk-bys were scoped out for a new four-legged friend in the future. - Phronsie spent a lot of time playtesting the new fun community lots downtown and picking up new dates while she was there. - William Williamson caught her on one of these dates and blew his top. (He later apologized.) - The two small dogs had two small puppies, and then Sophronia took in the pups from the seniors home, so anticipate plenty of puppy pictures this round!
