Partying into the night!
The oldest kid from the third generation of my legacy family, Michael (old recycled pic of him at the top for reference because I didn’t actually get any good shots of him during this party) was ready to have his birthday and join the adult world, so of course I threw A Big Family Party™. I just love them!!
I still could not decide what the heck to do about who the heir would be, but I’ve now narrowed it down to either the middle son Liam or the youngest son Sean. I’m torn because I’d have to wait a lot longer to get the next generation started if I chose Sean, but he is kind of my favourite? Decisions decisions! I also have sort of decided for my legacy, I want to alternate with each generation whether the heir marries a townie or one of my Sims. Gen 1 spouse was a townie, gen 2 spouse was a born in game Sim who was also second generation. Making sure I get some in game Sims helps with having extended families and watching traits get passed down, but keeping townies in the mix keeps some freshness! Of course I expect ACR might change things up here and there as it will - we’ll see!
Cake time for John and Wendy. I love this little face they make before they blow out the candles - thinking about their wish! The Benevolent Sim Watcher always knows what the secret wish is though - the lifetime aspiration.
Fun party for the kids and the grown-ups. I wish when you were throwing a party you could invite all household friends, not just the friends of whoever actually sets the party up. So I usually have the other household members call separately and invite over their own guests too. Valentina’s sister Serena just showed up uninvited anyways!
Nathan and Valentina get married at the community hall! I tell ya, this was like herding cats, and I realized I should have playtested it first. DJ couldn’t get to the booth! Oh well, lesson learned. And it still turned out alright!
