sim drowns, playing catch, learn to fire dance, chase by bees, combing for shells, house guest

Start up roll call: Adults 3, teens 2, kids 7, toddlers 4, pets 3.

Disaster Challenge: Sim drowns. Keep the stone for 1-2 weeks.

Elizabeth and Sarah age up and get a make over. The first one has her dads frowning lips. They both have the dads frowning eyebrows. I missed the birth picture of these two.
Twins are born.
Sims go on vacation. This is a shot of their vacation house as they arrive.

This sim walked by and my sim said HI. On their own they started playing catch and I noticed that she wasn't very good at it. In the above series of shots, she is afraid of the ball, then gets hit with it. Then she picks it up and looks at the other sim with an angry face. Then she threw it back to Killer.
Amber gets a gift from the witch doctor. Amber looks delighted.
Killer and Amber learn to hula dance from the witch doctor.

Amber gets a massage.
Amber learns to fire dance while Killer is fire dancing for tips. A local is tipping Killer.
Killer returns from a tour. During the tour a bee flew into the helicopter. I had the option to open up the window to let out the bee or to spray the bee to kill it. I picked to open up the window. When the window was opened, the bee called for help. A bunch of bees flew in the window filling up the helicopter with bees. My sim exited the tour with bees chasing him around the lot. They continued to do this for a little while.

For those who don't have BV, sims can go on tours during their vacation. Each area has three different tours to pick from. You book the tour and then a car comes and takes the sim. Sadly, you don't get to go with them, they just leave in the tour vehicle while you remain on the community lot. While on the tour, you get a pop up like chance card. Your answer can result in a good or a bad outcome. Just like chance cards there is a positive and negative for both answers. The positive can end with a gained skill, money, ... Negatives can end in loss of money, decreased needs, loss of skill, and other things I'll let you discover.

RUN KILLER RUN!
Killer sings with a ghost at the beach.

Amber combs through the sand looking for treasures and finds a crab. (oops)


OUCH!

She didn't learn anything, she is back to combing for shells. Killer is digging for treasure.
Return home. Killer ages to elder. My first elder in the challenge.
He calls over a friend he made while on vacation. I think this is the girl he was playing catch with. They talk about his vacation.

BV allows you to have a house guest for 3 days. The above sim is actually a house guest instead of invited over for a visit. Sadly, the house guest option is limited to sims at the vacation area. I was hoping to finally be able to invite grandma over for 3 days to help out with kids so the mom could go back to work. It would be nice to have grandma be the babysitter instead of the nanny.

Oh look they are hugging, how cute. Back in round one or two, Killer made friends with a sim and that sim ended up being his second wife. Could this be his fourth wife?
Carla goes for a swim.
While she is floating on her back, resting in the water, Amber (wife #3) visits the side of the pool. Amber just looks at her, but doesn't join her in the pool. (sorry Amber's head got cut off in the picture). Amber sort of looks spooky the way she just watches her. There seems to be something different about the pool.

Carla drowns.
Amber returns to the pool and returns the diving board and the steps. (snicker: Disaster card complete)
Amber changes into Carla's clothes. (hee hee)

ROLL Call: End of round 5. Killer and Amber are still happily married. Twins Elizabeth and Sarah are toddlers. Twin infant Puritan G and Thomas Hooker.

Nicole moves out with 4 toddlers. I moved her out since she is a popularity sim and Amber is a family sim. I'm going to continue to work to get Amber her 10 kid want.

Sims who went to uni this round. I used a cheat to age some of them up to teen to move them out. The lot was running really choppy after BV was d/l. With the low number of sims it runs just fine. Each house will be shrunk with kids aged to teens. I'll have a really swollen college round.
