Domestic bliss

One of my gay couples, Vic Mac and Börje Strandh. They have 2 babies, Doris Mac and Love Strandh. Don't know which one Börje is feeding here.

The Curious Family: Apollo, Lux, Miley, and Lilly. Apollo is Vidcund's son.


Close up of Miley(orange) and Lilly.

It was Parents Day at the R. Cosgrove Scholarship House located at Academie Le Tour. The girls living there took a moment to take a snapshot with their visitors.

Kimmy and Matthew Hart visit their youngest daughter, Sonata, a Junior majoring in Theater. Even though her family does well financially she was awarded the Hogan Award for Athletics that allowed her to join the scholarship house. She has five older siblings including a twin that goes to the same University. Sonata instigates many wild parties in the house and is a notorious flirt.


Freshman Caroline Bishop poses with her mother, Naoimi, and her step-father Michael-Anthony. She, like Sonata is also majoring in Theater and was a recipient of the Hogan Athletics Award. Caroline is more stuious than the other ladies but maintains a robust group of friends.


Mira Cosgrove is a Sophomore in Economics and a descendant of whom the scholarship house is named after. She may or may not have recieved a scholarship but even so it doesn't matter because she is legacy. Here she is being coddled by her parents, Pryce and Adriana. Adriana actually attended Le Tour and lived in the same scholarship house and was thrilled to come back to visit. Mira is their oldest child and loves a good social gathering as well as a good game of chess.

The Adelmans: Rachel, Jonah, and their adopted daughter Penny.

Stephen and Wanda Tinker just had twin girls, Heidi and Hadley.


Raz playing with some toys right before aging up.

Brandon and Justin Kim spend some time catching up.




Belle, as the oldest grandkid in the Goth house, got lots of attention from her grandpa


Of course, once the younger siblings came, sometimes they got priority, even when it was time for Belle to grow up!

Skylar Zarubin watches his husband Derek dance with his daughter Estella (or "Sprout," as Derek calls her) and wonders how he got so lucky.

Sharla Iana is a little tired after having twins. "I came in here for something. What was it? Do I care? Where am I? I'm so tired my eyeballs want to vomit." You have a toddler behind you in the same condition and all the dog beds have dogs in them. Just put her in her crib and you can fall into bed and sleep till you wake. I promise.

Fortunately, her son Otto grew up that same evening and immediately put himself on sibling duty. "You think that's funny, do you? You just wait till you're big enough to noogy!"

Marsha "No I'm not pregnant yet please stop asking" Gavigan passes the time with her niece, Crane Hawkins, who never looks from her belly to her husband and frowns.

Ripp Grunt and Ophelia Nigmos have a small wedding consisting just of their children.

Here's some sweet family shots from the Kingdom of Arde:



Amina Gulbaer, daughter of Amin Sims and Miana Sims (neé Gulbaer), telling a story to her young cousins Jona and Raina Miana over dinner. Amina's mother died giving birth to her and her twin brother and when she was a child her father, brother, older sister and step-mother got sick with the plague and lost their lives. Since then Amina has been living with her aunt Adna - Amina and Adna are very close, as are Amina and her cousins.



Here's Rafa Gulbaer (younger brother of Miana and Adna) meeting his daughter Grea for the first time. The infant is being held by Hura Gulbaer, who is Rafa's half-sister and a very close friend of the child's mother, Magda, the youngest daughter of Gale and Magda Noil, both now deceased.



And here we have Eric Barnchild hugging his eldest son, Eric Gale, after the boy left home to build a life with his wife, Raina Miana Barnchild (neé Gulbaer).

What can I say? In a small town everyone knows each other

I have just done a reinstall of my game, as it was running a bit wonky and have spent the week changing up Maxis families.

My first 4

To start We have 3 different households featuring the Brokes.

Skip Brokes Parents, Flat and Flo Broke, and Flats brother Buck


Skip, Brandi, Dustin and Beau Broke, and Brandis parents Bob and Betty Newbie


Skips quite eccentric sister, Ruby Broke


The Goth family, Mortimer, Bella, Cassanda and Alexander

Next in my newly made maxis households is

The Pleasents, Daniel (yes he is indeed still off having affairs!) Mary-Sue, Angela and Lilith


Mary-Sues parents, Coral and Herb Oldie


The Lotharios, Nicolo, Adriana, and Don Lothario


The Calientes, Flamenco, Nighat, Nina and Dina Caliente

Here's the Mushroom family! There's single father Wood Mushroom, his eldest daughter Honey and the newborn alien, another daughter named Penny Bun.

Wanted to share the Graden family, since I'm back to playing them now that all their kids are grown up. They've just adopted two more of the orphans in my hood, and they're doing a great job as they always have. Maelyn is second generation born in game, and Bryce was a townie. They've got great-grandchildren by now!



Bryce and Maelyn on their wedding day, which I used for the cover of the Sims magazine I posted for awhile. Love that photo, wish I'd saved it without the cover text!



From the far left: Daughter Jocasta, who is holding son Marquis, then daughter Leora. The little boy is Jocasta's son Jairus, the first grandbaby. And of course, there's Bryce and Maelyn, still very much in love. This was before fourth and fifth children Shalyn and Kasmir were born. They're off at college now. Jocasta has unfortunately passed, as has Jairus, but Leora has 3 kids and Marquis has twins.



And finally, the elder Gradens, having a slow dance in their kitchen. They're so adorable. I just love them and wanted to share. :-)

Geraldine Mander plays Don't Wake the Llama with her gramma, Sally.
Those two are actually blood-related, but elsewhere in Drama Acres, families are what you make them.

Jim Spitzig hangs out with his stepson Tri Ku. He always wants to know what's going on with the boy.

Estella Zarubin hangs loose with her Aunt Bev. Of course Aunt Bev is really her aunt, and Uncle Jim is really her uncle, and their kids Tri and Dirk are her real cousins!

Because Aunt Bev is her Dadick's sister and Dadick is her real father, along with Daddy, because they got married when Estella was a baby and anybody who thinks Dadick isn't real because Daddy was the one that got abducted needs his head examined.

@littlejestersims You make me want to play a historical hood again! But I must stick with only modern....well until i get a new computer that is lol.

The Hidalgo's(well one branch of them) decided to finally get a family photo done, now that they're finally done having kids. From Left to Right is twins Nathaniel&Charlotte, twins Scarlett&Margaret, Joel, Sophie and baby Lillian.

Mother and daughter.. before she passed on :'(

awwww thats so sad!!!

I decided to take some family photos recently, I’ve been planning to take a photo of each family in my game for a while now just for development purposes but I never get round to it.

This is the Burb family. John Burb has two children with his ex-wife Jennifer – Lucy (teenager) and Adam (child with brown hair). They broke up because John wanted a large family and Jennifer wanted a career. Jennifer occasionally calls her son Adam, and has a 40/30ish relationship with him but hasn’t spoken to Lucy since she was a child. Mary Burb was also previously married, to Nathan Gavigan. She has another son Isaiah who she thinks lives with his father… but actually lives on his own since his father moved out to marry Ginger Newson. Mary also has twins Anaise and Elliot from her previous marriage. They’re 2 days older than Adam and will be growing up in a few sim days. Mary is holding Joe Burb, the newest child. They also have 2 cats, and a kitten (born this rotation just after Joe)
I’m not sure why John’s arm is snoring…


Next up is the Cooke family. Julian Cooke and Kirsten have three children together – Oldest child Peridot who follows in her mother's love of creativity and wants to own a clothing store when she's older, son Parsley - the little troublemaker who is as boyish and cheeky as they come, and newest edition baby Pearla. Julian works as a cook and Kirsten is a stay at home Mum who paints to get some extra money on the side. They have a dog named Scout which they’ve owned since he was a puppy and was their first “baby”. Here they are sitting down to watch some Tv and talking about their day.


Finally, the Goodies. Herb and Faith have two children, Son Artie and daughter Adeline. Artie had an arranged marriage to Sharla Ottomas as Artie wanted to go straight into the military as soon as possible and Sharla just wanted to get out of living in her grandma’s very crowded house – she hopes to go off to university next rotation and Artie will be placed in Strangetown when he’s 8 days from becoming an adult. Their marriage may or may not last – it’s hard to say. They’re not yet in love, but they’re getting there slowly (even though Sharla is a pleasure sim and has cheated on him with Jonah Powers. She only wears those clothes because the Goodies make her - before the marriage she wore all kinds of ravy outfits). Sharla is holding their son, Abiah. Adeline is due to get married off at some point – but I haven’t currently found a suitor so for the meantime she’s enjoying painting. Both Artie and Adeline attend private school.
Herbert and Faith have 3 dogs – the Critturs and one of their pups (now fully grown) Pepper.

Here's Calvin and the twins! I love family mealtimes:


Having fun on the new playground equipment in the front garden:


And the twins grew up again! Calvin's still a proud dad:

The Monty family
Patrizo Monty would be passing away today so I decided to take a nice family photo. Minus Romeo's illegitimate son Philip Capp, which he doesn't know about - this is the whole Monty family. A lot smaller than the Capp's
I think it's pretty obvious who almost everyone is, but in case it isn't.
Back row is Isabella Monty and husband Patrizo Monty
Their daughter Bianca Fastolfe - who ran from the family to marry Kent - a Capp, they changed their last name and no longer live in Veronaville but got in touch not too long ago and the family soon stitched things up.
In the very middle are Romeo and Mercutio Monty. Both have recently graduated university. Mercutio currently lives with his grandparents, whereas Romeo has moved down the street on his own with one of the Monty's trusty wolf-hybrid dogs Runba.
Antonio Monty - Still single, still a cook, still has 2 children. He's has an interest on Jennifer Burb but she's not interested in settling down.
On the left with the white turtle neck - Benedick Monty (One of Antonio's twins). Knowledge aspiration, with an interest in going into the family's culinary business. Currently dating Bottom Summerdream - whom is cheating on him with Romeo.
Next to him is Aemelia Fastolfe - One of Bianca's twins. She's loved by the Montys, her Capp cousins tend to make fun of her.
Next up is Egeon Fastolfe - Aemelia's twin brother. He has no interest in the Montys and sticks out like a saw thumb with his light hair, light skin and interest in wealth and money. He's most likely going to re-start the Monty/Capp feud to swear his loyalty to the Capps when he grows up.
and finally - Beatrice Monty. Family sim, dating Gavin Newson. She's just grown out of her coloured hair phase, thank god or Patrizo would've wanted her to dye it back for the photo


Patrizo died later that day, after spending his last moments watching the clouds in his favourite suit - waiting for grimmy. Who appeared just as it started to snow.

Still working on Polgannon. I got to the Nicholls house and Senara decided to invite her brother, Alan (on the left) over for dinner. This shot shows off a distinctive family feature: The Trelawney Nose

I am gong to totally spam you with the legacy I've been working on, there are a total of 128 people currently (dead and alive). Here are a few of my favourites.

Lazlo and Stella were saving up the money to have a nice wedding when they got pregnant. They thought their 1 bedroom house will do for the time being until they got enough money to build a bigger house - boy were they wrong.
Here they are with their newborn quads - Freud (blue), Einstein (green), Curie (red) and Burnell (pink)
They all have their mothers green skin, both parents black hair, and 3 of them have alien eyes - with Curie being the only one to inherit her fathers eyes


Daniel's 50th birthday
You can see the twins in the background, both are heavily pregnant. Daniel has 3 more children who aren't pictured - Geoff (child) and Caroline (toddler) with Mary-Sue, and a son Nathan with Kaylynn (he doesn't know yet) who is also a child, only a day younger than Geoff and almost identical.
In the picture you can also see Peter Ottomas (Daniel's work colleague, and Angela's "bit on the side"), Breanna Custer and Kevin Beare

Took a few photos of Cerys and her younger sister Patience playing in the garden.
They're Jacob and Jules Martin's children and they have such a cute big-sis-little-sis bond

Cerys looks like she's flying in this pic, but she's actually not... she's just further away from the tree than it looks.


Running around the garden


Cerys helps Patience up after she falls over


The following sim-year, Cerys is now old enough to help her parents rake the leaves and Patience has grown a full head of hair
