Chapter 1 Part 2 (Text)

As soon as I stepped off the train, my ears were filled with a high pitch noise. It took me a minute to actually hear it. “ADDDDDELINE! ADELINE! I AM SOOOOOOO EXCITED TO SEE YOU! OVER HERE! I’M OVER HERE!!! Oh, Ruth-Anne, grab Tommy will you!?? Don’t let him run away! ADELINE, DARLING!” I rolled my eyes, I hadn’t seen Aunt Claire since my father’s funeral but she had not changed at all. I started taking one step forward when I felt someone grab my arm, “You didn’t tell me your Aunt was Crazy Claire! I love your aunt! I babysit for her! So glad to know YOU’RE the one that is causing me to not have a job this summer; you’re nice. Good luck with Ruth-Anne, though! Bye!” Marilyn said before she ran off towards Shaun and two other guys. Before I had a chance to comprehend what she had just said, I had a three year old attached to my leg and my aunt smothering me with a hug, still screaming. This was going to be a long summer.

Aunt Claire’s house wasn’t far from the train station but from the woods surrounding her house, you would think it was miles away from civilization. She told me it was actually within walking distance of everything while still being hidden from everyone. “It makes for a peaceful life of people staying out of my business!” Aunt Claire had explained to me as she had huffed and puffed up the front porch steps. “You look ready to pop, Aunt Claire! Are you due this month?!” I asked her, I hadn’t even known she was pregnant again. “No. I’m having twins. I’m not due for another two months! Luckily it is the beginning of August that the babies will be due; you’ll still be here!” She excitedly explained to me. I didn’t think she should be carrying the bags for me but figured it was her 3^rd pregnancy, she should know her lifting limits by now.

Yay!!

I really didn't think anyone would take the time to read my story. It makes me feel happy! Lol. I am going to post a sims version of the story with the words and all that and a normal version with just text. Maybe I'll somehow get other people reading it? People that aren't in the sims. And so that people that may not like it broken up by the pictures can scroll through and look at the pictures then go back and read it all without being broken up...

Also, any help with figuring out a name for the story would be incredible! I have no idea what to call it!? Hehe. (:

First attempt at a story TEXT ONLY Chapter 1 Part 1

 “You are going to your Aunt Claire’s for the summer.” It was not a question, it was not a suggestion. It was a statement; a command. When my mom decided I was going to do something, I was going to do it. There was no questioning it. No challenging it. I was being forced to spend the last summer of my high school years at my Aunt Claire’s in the middle of nowhere. Just what every high school senior wants. I sighed. Dare I ask why? Just as I opened my mouth to do so she continued. “I need this summer to myself. I don’t want to worry about where you are, who you are with and what you are doing. Claire will take care of you and make sure you don’t get into trouble this summer.” She said. Oh, please. I thought, It’s not as if you didn’t spend last summer by yourself or with some new guy drinking the day (and night, for that matter) away. I’m the one usually watching you. It was at that moment that I realized she was sending me away so she could have freedom, so that she wouldn’t have to come home to me asleep in the living room. Waking up to ask her where she was and who the guy hanging all over her was. All the while wondering how long he would last.

This is my first attempt at a story. I apologize for my horrible picture taking skills. Any advice is more than welcome!!!

Legacy Pictures and whatnot.

I updated the family tree. It has 30something sims in it! Only 4 sims aren't family and are just in a relationship with someone and one sim is a simbot and not related at all! 

You can see the family tree here!

Recently I downloaded Twallan's Story Progression Mod. Which I now don't think I could live without.. I get so much news from the extended legacy family so I don't need to occasionally switch to them and see what is going on! 

I also finally potty trained Sirious, the heir, today! And finished all his twins learnings as well. So I should be ready and able to pick his next trait!

Samantha and the babysitter. He denied her her first kiss.. D: She wants to be BFFs with him. So I guess I'll make that happen then get them to date. Maybe it'll work better then.

I thought this was just incredibly cool. I never knew that Simbots could do that! Then again, I have very little experience with Simbots! That's Cora.

Simself and some favorite pictures.

Below is a picture of my boyfriend's and my simselves flirting it up...In the middle of the street.

Legacy!

So I just made my first ever legacy family tree on familyecho.com...
Check it out.. I may be adding more pictures if I remember to take some..

Redsticks Legacy!
