I'm not going to delete it because I always get very attached to my sim families - even the hideous ones, LOL. But I think they have probably gotten about as ugly as they can without cheating. I am probably finished with them. <br />
<br />
Another factor in my decision to quit is that I don't enjoy playing Legacy style nearly as much as a neighborhood in rotation - like a Prosperity style challenge. I tend to get really bored with Legacies. I have only finished one - an Apocalypse challenge that I finished but never blogged.<br />
<br />
But I may one day come back and play this one again and blog it, as unlikely as it seems to me now. I just hate that I left this challenge dormant for so long with no explanation. So now I have a feeling of closure with this one.

<br />
<br />
My apologies for taking almost 3 months to update. It doesn't seem like it's been that long.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9084-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9084-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Even though getting engaged to Brittany Wendland was still in Hanley's want panel, it was time to get down to the ugly business of Generation 5. And who could be better for the ugly business than Carmen Patch? If an uglier woman is out there, we didn't find her.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9093-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9093-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Carmen prefers underwear, and Hanley prefers formalwear. This is an interesting date - one that maybe they should have at home rather than taking a chance of Hanley getting beaten by Mrs. Crumplebottom's purse full of bricks.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9096-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9096-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Hanley related the story about how his stupid brother Kermit believed that the Almighty Overseer would direct him to the toilet, if only he had faith, danced around, and waited long enough. And of course, his faith was crushed when he had that embarrassing accident that no one will ever let him live down.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9098-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9098-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Carmen was shocked that anyone could be stupid and careless enough to pee their pants.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9094-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9094-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Of course, this was the way to Carmen's heart - sharing such a personal story about his stupid brother's incontinence, Hanley dancing in his underwear while she was wearing her best dress... This was definitely romance at its best.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9109-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9109-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Hanley had become irresistible.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9111-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9111-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
And so had Carmen. Hanley finally forgot Brittany, and wanted to get engaged to Carmen. This made me happy. I like it when my sims want what I want them to want.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9119-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9119-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Carmen was more than willing to say yes to the engagement.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9124-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9124-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Then Hanley wanted to get married, so I figured they should go ahead and have a wedding.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9127-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9127-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Shortly after she arrived for the wedding, Hanley's Aunt Darcie lost her mind. It was quite entertaining.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9130-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9130-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Hanley thinks his fiancee is quite attractive - at least from the back. He looks surprised that the wedding is so soon, though - like now.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9133-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9133-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
He looked a little scared of that wedding ring, but went through with the wedding despite any jitters.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9140-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9140-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
After all, Carmen was such a beautiful woman. The only woman for him.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9145-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9145-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Except that now he wants to fall in love with Brittany again. :P He seriously rolled that want immediately after he was married.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9146-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9146-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
But I'm not about to help him with that want. It's time to make ugly babies with Carmen. That is his job.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9147-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9147-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Guess where his dad was during the ceremony. He was in the garage playing the electric guitar and just couldn't drag himself away.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9148-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9148-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
His uncle Fulton also missed the wedding. He was busy mopping up the bathroom because the toilet clogged. What a close-knit family the Thayers having become. :P<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9149-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9149-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Hanley and Carmen went and had some alone time during the wedding party.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9155-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9155-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Meanwhile, the cleanbot was preparing the nursery for Generation 5 - by spitting out garbage everywhere. <br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9156-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9156-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
It looks like it filled up the porch before it started on the nursery. Marisa is out tonight to join the party celebrate her son Hanley's big day.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9157-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9157-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
For the wedding party, Hanley's dad Garridan didn't bother with food, cake, or champagne, he just hired a bartender. <br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9158-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9158-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Marisa had some fun with the guests.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9165-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9165-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
When things settled down after the wedding, Carmen had the want to get fit, and since she was already pregnant, yoga seemed like a good idea - at least while she was still able to do it - sorta.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9171-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9171-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Carmen is a fast leaner, so it didn't take her long to get in shape. With a face like that though, does it really matter how fit you are? I'm just saying...<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9176-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9176-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
I decided to have Hanley start on his agonizingly tedious LTW of having 5 top-level business. He bought this arcade in Bluewater Village.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9192-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9192-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
So here are the highlights of the painfully-long process of getting the business to level 10. Cassandra Goth and Darren Dreamer fell in love autonomously at the arcade.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9202-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9202-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
And Hanley lost a video game to Alexander Goth. Nothing else was that interesting, even though it seemed to drag on forever. But he did get the business to level 10. One down, four to go. Ugh.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9223-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9223-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
I love the look of sheer joy on Garridan's face as he spies on Mortimer.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9221-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9221-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Garridan has locked the gate, so there's not a thing Mortimer can do to stop him now. He can only point and yell. I love how Garridan's still looking at Mortimer through the telescope while Mortimer is freaking out on the other side of the fence. Good times.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9227-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9227-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Carmen is very boring, but fairly easy to keep happy. She has all these food craving wants because she's pregnant.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9230-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9230-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
And she wants to study whenever she's not eating. At least I always know where to find her.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9238-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9238-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Orson and Petra are used to life as unneeded spares. I never know where these two are or what they're doing, but I happened to catch them becoming best friends over muffins that they baked for themselves. I guess their shared and neglect has made them close.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9245-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9245-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Since I thought that was a sweet moment, I decided to give them cakes for their birthday. They were going to celebrate their birthday on the front lawn, but then of course it rained.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9249-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9249-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
They moved the party indoors. AckBot was there, since he was the one who raised them - the closest thing they had to a loving parent.<br />
<br />

<br />
Orson grew up wanting to wear leotards every day. And not that it matters, but he's a Romance sim who wants to woohoo 20 sims.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9254-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9254-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Petra doesn't look too bad - at least not as bad as some of them have turned out. Petra is a Family sim who wants to reach her golden anniversary.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9259-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9259-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Sandy came out to haunt the Roll and Bowl. It's a popular place for the ghosts since it's close to their graves - and at ground level.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9264-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9264-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Ghosts can apparently haunt the bowling lanes, lifting the entire lane.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9280-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9280-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Rose also enjoyed scaring the customers of the bowling alley.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9286-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9286-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
I guess the townie left a pee puddle at the Roll and Bowl.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9288-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9288-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Or I thought it was the townie. It was actually Hanley that left the pee puddle. His grandma Rose scared him too. Now he is hiding in the bathroom and crying because he now has something in common with his annoying brother Kermit. Oh the shame of it! Hopefully, no one else saw.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9298-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9298-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Now that she's a teen, Petra wants a first kiss, so she decided to make a wish at the wishing well. I have no idea why she's so angry about it.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9300-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9300-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
She really looks unhappy about this kiss going into it.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9302-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9302-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
And I think this guy should be afraid to kiss her. Besides being ugly, she looks like she wants to spit in his eye.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9307-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9307-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
But he was courageous and kissed her anyway.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9309-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9309-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Apparently kissing him fulfilled her want, but didn't improve her mood. She glared at him like she absolutely despised him.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9311-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9311-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
She got even more upset to see that they were best friends <i>and </i>he had dared to fall in love with her.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9312-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9312-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
It was just too much to bear. She decided that she would noogie the floating heart off his head.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9317-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9317-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
After that, even though she still looks ready to hurt him, she wanted to go steady with him.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9318-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9318-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Which he surprisingly agreed to. She still seems very conflicted in her feelings.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9319-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9319-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
It's these funny, strange events that keep me playing Sims 2. I enjoyed this scenario so much. <br />
<br />
As much as I really enjoyed Petra as a teen, this is the last we'll be seeing of her for awhile. She and Orson are spares, so they have headed off to college to make room for ugly babies.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9322-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9322-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Carmen decided to take a short break from studying.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9326-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9326-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
She went into the bedroom and gave birth. Meet Quennell. Quennell is a baby boy, and his name means "woman battle." If he's the heir to the Thayer fortune, I suppose it's possible that women would fight over him. They won't be fighting over him for his good looks, if he turns out looking anything like his mom and dad.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9331-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9331-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Carmen, should you really be holding your newborn in that pesticide-encrusted outfit?<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9335-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9335-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
The baby was quickly handed off to be cared for by AckBot. They had to work on making another ugly little Thayer.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9351-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9351-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Little Quennell is so cute in this picture. He will most likely outgrow the cuteness as soon as he's a toddler.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9354-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9354-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
One nice thing about a Legacy house - it's big enough to play football in the kitchen. Fulton's ex-wife Tristen was there playing a game of football with his brother Garridan.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9357-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9357-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Even though her visit was drama-free, she's still really mad at Fulton, and drops by to steal the newspaper on a regular basis.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9361-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9361-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Tristen decided to learn parenting at the expense of showering and getting dressed.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/?action=view&current=9362-1.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2014/9362-1.png" /></a>
<br />
<br />
She really fears changing diapers now. I guess when she studied parenting, she realized that changing diapers was a part of being a good parent. Luckily, AckBot is there for all the unpleasant tasks.<br />
<br />
And although I have played a little beyond this point, I feel this is a good stopping place. Thank you for reading, and please stop by again for more of the UGG Legacy in the future.<br />

<br />
It's time for another update of my UGG Legacy. As you may know, Hanley won the heir poll.<br />
<br />
Hanley Thayer<br />
Generation 4<br />
Fortune/Family <br />
Scorpio 8-7-9-7-1<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-nyn2Zu8miQ4/T01etXh11ZI/AAAAAAAAAU0/Tn9vxBBKJvo/s1600/9079-2.png"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-nyn2Zu8miQ4/T01etXh11ZI/AAAAAAAAAU0/Tn9vxBBKJvo/s1600/9079-2.png" /></a><br />
<br />
I decided to go ahead and let Hanley stay at Sim State. He needs the 6 want slots.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-rDi-twywxJk/T01ZaYfKcoI/AAAAAAAAARE/ILGIcK5Fuyk/s1600/9179-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-rDi-twywxJk/T01ZaYfKcoI/AAAAAAAAARE/ILGIcK5Fuyk/s1600/9179-1.png" /></a> <br />
<br />
Because I will have to try to keep him happy for a long time. I really hate this LTW.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-YJLO5NFdzhQ/T01YcJDwP5I/AAAAAAAAAN8/JmBAr5iTeL0/s1600/9078-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-YJLO5NFdzhQ/T01YcJDwP5I/AAAAAAAAAN8/JmBAr5iTeL0/s1600/9078-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Hanley doesn't want to hear any gossip from his brother Kermit. Kermit has a really abrasive personality, I guess. I noticed that no one really likes him.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-QmGrZMFzfF4/T01Yqt0PdAI/AAAAAAAAAOU/RdIRcA6Qems/s1600/9085-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-QmGrZMFzfF4/T01Yqt0PdAI/AAAAAAAAAOU/RdIRcA6Qems/s1600/9085-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
I don't know why, but Kermit kept waiting for me to send him to the bathroom for some reason, even though no one else was in there keeping him from going. He finally gave everyone a really entertaining gossip topic for the rest of their university experience.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-uN4TVAPQa7Q/T01Ys9_YzeI/AAAAAAAAAOc/KNfr49LBkl0/s1600/9087-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-uN4TVAPQa7Q/T01Ys9_YzeI/AAAAAAAAAOc/KNfr49LBkl0/s1600/9087-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
I pretty much let all the spares be free range and do what they want. They did a lot of annoying things, like cook up lobster.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-vjplb7WiasQ/T01Yvm4qAwI/AAAAAAAAAOk/CboEjrhSPwo/s1600/9092-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-vjplb7WiasQ/T01Yvm4qAwI/AAAAAAAAAOk/CboEjrhSPwo/s1600/9092-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Hanley's cousin Mara was a bit challenged, if her outfit didn't already clue you in to that fact. She had trouble taking care of herself.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-gnVPBOLw5OA/T01YxyJ5X2I/AAAAAAAAAOs/HClriU2FzrM/s1600/9093-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-gnVPBOLw5OA/T01YxyJ5X2I/AAAAAAAAAOs/HClriU2FzrM/s1600/9093-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Iago and Hanley are discussing fashion. I'm not sure fashion is the answer. Plastic surgery, maybe...<br />
<br />
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-2QtMUVSUsos/T01Y1AlhjLI/AAAAAAAAAO0/cthkGrbBj_U/s1600/9097-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-2QtMUVSUsos/T01Y1AlhjLI/AAAAAAAAAO0/cthkGrbBj_U/s1600/9097-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Leah really doesn't like her annoying brother Kermit. She really liked to poke him. I was afraid I'd start seeing a lot of dustclouds, but it didn't get that bad. They eventually found other things to distract them.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-tt319qwU_mw/T01Y3NjwdMI/AAAAAAAAAO8/a2lJzJF1jas/s1600/9101-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-tt319qwU_mw/T01Y3NjwdMI/AAAAAAAAAO8/a2lJzJF1jas/s1600/9101-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
When the coach came around to try to make them work out, Leah had a breakdown. She was just so tired. It was at that point that I gave them better beds. Up until then, the 7 of them were taking turns sleeping in 3 single beds, and they just weren't getting enough good rest. The problem was that there was no room for more beds, and I was procrastinating rebuilding even though there was enough money.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/--4CHKfIS6ho/T06AofQgDRI/AAAAAAAAAWA/JSeTD1lejrs/s1600/9222-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/--4CHKfIS6ho/T06AofQgDRI/AAAAAAAAAWA/JSeTD1lejrs/s1600/9222-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
I eventually took the time to expand the Greek house. Then there was much more room, and everyone had their own expensive bed.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-YMd2wYFdHGM/T01Y5DqFmOI/AAAAAAAAAPE/vVzdJupNHw0/s1600/9102-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-YMd2wYFdHGM/T01Y5DqFmOI/AAAAAAAAAPE/vVzdJupNHw0/s1600/9102-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Hanley, not surprisingly, had never had a first kiss. Brittany Wendland was one of the top girls he was attracted to in TwoJeff's crystal ball. She's not that pretty, but not ugly enough for him to marry. But she will do for a first kiss.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ZWDG9Q6nPwM/T01Y7slDLxI/AAAAAAAAAPM/zB4jQPa8aeE/s1600/9105-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ZWDG9Q6nPwM/T01Y7slDLxI/AAAAAAAAAPM/zB4jQPa8aeE/s1600/9105-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
They hit it off rather quickly.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-IoeoN6dY7aw/T01Y-IAxtsI/AAAAAAAAAPU/hMis3mWUrYs/s1600/9106-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-IoeoN6dY7aw/T01Y-IAxtsI/AAAAAAAAAPU/hMis3mWUrYs/s1600/9106-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Until he started to get fresh.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-X9-ytR9t_s8/T01ZANTgQOI/AAAAAAAAAPc/ZZnppszpLNI/s1600/9119-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-X9-ytR9t_s8/T01ZANTgQOI/AAAAAAAAAPc/ZZnppszpLNI/s1600/9119-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
But she forgave him quickly. It looks like he's going to suck her lips off.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-3sFpz4KTG6o/T01ZCN9B0-I/AAAAAAAAAPk/EzURaLgsODA/s1600/9120-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-3sFpz4KTG6o/T01ZCN9B0-I/AAAAAAAAAPk/EzURaLgsODA/s1600/9120-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Somehow she can manage to look past that face and enjoy kissing him. Maybe she's far-sighted.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-tsZuFVqFSqo/T01ZEYV3T1I/AAAAAAAAAPs/K-1RVLAekqc/s1600/9121-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-tsZuFVqFSqo/T01ZEYV3T1I/AAAAAAAAAPs/K-1RVLAekqc/s1600/9121-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
I just had to share this picture of Leah. I wonder how things would have turned out if I had let her be heir. She has a great deal of potential, and an iron stomach, I guess. <br />
<br />
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-n8vTTkYyPQY/T01ZFEYEg1I/AAAAAAAAAP0/NiXMBc3u2po/s1600/9141-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-n8vTTkYyPQY/T01ZFEYEg1I/AAAAAAAAAP0/NiXMBc3u2po/s1600/9141-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Brittany Wendland brought Hanley a really nice, expensive gift.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ZdHr4Eelh3M/T01ZHGQ2FnI/AAAAAAAAAP8/AXDxraZhSs4/s1600/9142-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ZdHr4Eelh3M/T01ZHGQ2FnI/AAAAAAAAAP8/AXDxraZhSs4/s1600/9142-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Job needed a body point for his studies, so I got an exercise bike. Sims usually try to kill themselves with this thing. I'd better keep a close eye on Hanley. The others... well if I notice them killing themselves I'll try to intervene. The spares haven't been required to skill at all, but if they need a skill, I try to give them something they will want to use.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-MCd9qyM2WFY/T01ZJER1rhI/AAAAAAAAAQE/BCKTIXmJQzQ/s1600/9146-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-MCd9qyM2WFY/T01ZJER1rhI/AAAAAAAAAQE/BCKTIXmJQzQ/s1600/9146-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Hanley used the bike to get fit. I'm not sure how it worked his biceps, though.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-HM7DXEHFwCQ/T01ZLH4rXuI/AAAAAAAAAQM/Zst-5uI6xe4/s1600/9149-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-HM7DXEHFwCQ/T01ZLH4rXuI/AAAAAAAAAQM/Zst-5uI6xe4/s1600/9149-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Hanley decided to take Brittany on another date. For some reason, she felt the guy making coffee was incompetent, so she decided to help him.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-R3sgFO0Irk4/T01ZNB-ufII/AAAAAAAAAQU/8tpn2vjj5Rc/s1600/9161-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-R3sgFO0Irk4/T01ZNB-ufII/AAAAAAAAAQU/8tpn2vjj5Rc/s1600/9161-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
And with ACR's help, she decided to help Hanley in the hot tub. After that, Hanley really wanted to get engaged to Brittany. I feel kind of bad that he can't choose his own wife, but Uglacies are all about arranged marriages. Hopefully, I can find someone ugly that will make him happy - and make an even uglier generation of Thayer's - if that's even possible.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-kTXVdut8t68/T01ZSDtCSRI/AAAAAAAAAQk/9DeIxyjV0uE/s1600/9168-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-kTXVdut8t68/T01ZSDtCSRI/AAAAAAAAAQk/9DeIxyjV0uE/s1600/9168-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Mrs. Crumplebottom looked especially unhappy tonight - possibly because she arrived just a little too late to save Hanley's virtue.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-7Un7Ppp62sQ/T01ZPLfaCgI/AAAAAAAAAQc/SgyqE2eI4yU/s1600/9167-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-7Un7Ppp62sQ/T01ZPLfaCgI/AAAAAAAAAQc/SgyqE2eI4yU/s1600/9167-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Hanley took the opportunity before he went home to buy cellphones for everyone back at the house. It's getting too difficult for the 7 of them to share the same phone line.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-wB9uqgb8NEw/T01ZUJPDqEI/AAAAAAAAAQs/sQ9K4_Oe3EY/s1600/9169-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-wB9uqgb8NEw/T01ZUJPDqEI/AAAAAAAAAQs/sQ9K4_Oe3EY/s1600/9169-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
As Hanley arrived back home, he saw Frances J. Worthington III walking by, and decided to invite him in. Francis looks a little concerned, but out of the politeness that comes of good breeding, he agreed to come in and meet the people of very bad breeding..<br />
<br />
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-DS60qEpgqRU/T01ZWtTCL3I/AAAAAAAAAQ0/2eAabUmPdec/s1600/9170-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-DS60qEpgqRU/T01ZWtTCL3I/AAAAAAAAAQ0/2eAabUmPdec/s1600/9170-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
But, he was not very polite when he sat in front of the staircase doing his homework for a long time, as everyone was blocked from being able to use the stairs during that time.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/--qaepEgsWJg/T01ZZbfBwyI/AAAAAAAAAQ8/HpUFOufGND8/s1600/9178-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/--qaepEgsWJg/T01ZZbfBwyI/AAAAAAAAAQ8/HpUFOufGND8/s1600/9178-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Neron spent a little too much time on the exercise bike and before I knew it, he was in bad shape. Kermit thought it was hilarious to see his cousin passed out on the floor. Is it any wonder he's really unpopular?<br />
<br />
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-WI0jbPvrsQI/T01gHc2QZKI/AAAAAAAAAU8/nQiXmK4GGNo/s1600/9188-2.png"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-WI0jbPvrsQI/T01gHc2QZKI/AAAAAAAAAU8/nQiXmK4GGNo/s1600/9188-2.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Hanley did some more dating in order to try to find the perfect combination of attraction and ugliness. It was not an easy task. Lucy Hanby is somewhat ugly, but maybe he can do better. He finds her repulsive anyway.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-7wg4fusUmpo/T01Zf-OSYSI/AAAAAAAAARU/gHmvjhgKSnE/s1600/9197-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-7wg4fusUmpo/T01Zf-OSYSI/AAAAAAAAARU/gHmvjhgKSnE/s1600/9197-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Shelby Barrett also had potential, but he thinks she's really gross, too.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-zvY8_wSAzlY/T01gcbcfC6I/AAAAAAAAAVE/e9wlpEYjDu4/s1600/9204-2.png"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-zvY8_wSAzlY/T01gcbcfC6I/AAAAAAAAAVE/e9wlpEYjDu4/s1600/9204-2.png" /></a><br />
<br />
But, he did like the exterminator Carmen Patch. They only had one bolt, but I figured with the turn-ons, maybe that could be improved for them.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-D4nbRB3xrRc/T01ZkjJUoBI/AAAAAAAAARk/O_HGpb-rusw/s1600/9206-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-D4nbRB3xrRc/T01ZkjJUoBI/AAAAAAAAARk/O_HGpb-rusw/s1600/9206-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
I cheated and peeked at Carmen's LTW. That seems easy enough.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-2rQ8uMmulcg/T01ZmgU6VvI/AAAAAAAAARs/Ut2M6Ri4owY/s1600/9212-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-2rQ8uMmulcg/T01ZmgU6VvI/AAAAAAAAARs/Ut2M6Ri4owY/s1600/9212-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Once I fixed them up for each other, they had 2 bolts. Carmen likes blond hair and underwear. Hanley likes glasses and formalwear. It's a lot of trouble to go to, but he can like Carmen - almost as much as Brittany.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-GZlA_l6TcSk/T01Zo1Cf4QI/AAAAAAAAAR0/L4tI_-qmo_w/s1600/9214-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-GZlA_l6TcSk/T01Zo1Cf4QI/AAAAAAAAAR0/L4tI_-qmo_w/s1600/9214-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
They're going to make an interesting couple.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ArBRJlfel0s/T01ZrbWhULI/AAAAAAAAAR8/TP2nRgJioLo/s1600/9229-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ArBRJlfel0s/T01ZrbWhULI/AAAAAAAAAR8/TP2nRgJioLo/s1600/9229-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Hanley had received a remote control car as a gift from an outing he went on with a pretty girl - no need to show you her face. She was completely ineligible. ;) Mara demonstrated again that she has no sense of self-preservation. She didn't have the sense to put on warm clothes in winter, but stood outside and played with the car in her skimpy outfit for hours and hours.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-A6gNdCOjMx0/T01Zt2c0mYI/AAAAAAAAASE/QGwahE8z-y8/s1600/9230-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-A6gNdCOjMx0/T01Zt2c0mYI/AAAAAAAAASE/QGwahE8z-y8/s1600/9230-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Maybe she thought the leg-warmers would keep her warm. Once she was very blue, she finally noticed she was cold.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-zJriOqFzU2w/T01ZwUpe8XI/AAAAAAAAASM/0GSOTsuMNPU/s1600/9232-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-zJriOqFzU2w/T01ZwUpe8XI/AAAAAAAAASM/0GSOTsuMNPU/s1600/9232-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
By then she was frozen. Kermit seemed more interested in the flamingo than his frozen cousin.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-aqEAHn-DOyA/T01ZzYsjfRI/AAAAAAAAASU/JM3Yk2BGScg/s1600/9233-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-aqEAHn-DOyA/T01ZzYsjfRI/AAAAAAAAASU/JM3Yk2BGScg/s1600/9233-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
However, I sent him over with the hairdryer. She started thawing before he could start helping.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-GMnFxpLgmyI/T01Z1B5guKI/AAAAAAAAASc/QC67XzcscPQ/s1600/9234-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-GMnFxpLgmyI/T01Z1B5guKI/AAAAAAAAASc/QC67XzcscPQ/s1600/9234-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
She went directly to bed, and had some awful nightmares. A nightmare for Mara is also a nightmare for me. It looks like I need to use <a href="http://www.modthesims.info/download.php?t=456523" target="_blank">HoodChecker</a> on UnPleasantview.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-xazAnUaNH7w/T01Z3pGmxxI/AAAAAAAAASk/er84njaNmgI/s1600/9238-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-xazAnUaNH7w/T01Z3pGmxxI/AAAAAAAAASk/er84njaNmgI/s1600/9238-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
After a date with Hanley, Carmen spontaneously grabbed and kissed him. I suppose things are going better than expected. Still, it's hard for me not to regret Hanley's feelings for Brittany that will have to be put aside for the sake of Uglacy.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-xHhu8In-GoI/T01Z6KEOtsI/AAAAAAAAASs/GA0BKeqHmmM/s1600/9244-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-xHhu8In-GoI/T01Z6KEOtsI/AAAAAAAAASs/GA0BKeqHmmM/s1600/9244-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Hanley grew up in an ugly shirt. Is this is a good sign that we'll be seeing more ugly when he returns home? He graduated with a 4.0 average, not that it really matters. His siblings and cousins will stay at the Greek house for now.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-5bMRH3Onmcw/T01afJXiy-I/AAAAAAAAAUk/_FqLiHgDvPs/s1600/unpleasantview.jpg"><img border="0" height="396" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-5bMRH3Onmcw/T01afJXiy-I/AAAAAAAAAUk/_FqLiHgDvPs/s640/unpleasantview.jpg" width="600" /></a><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-tM-7t3qVVxU/T01Z_MkyaiI/AAAAAAAAAS0/a2cPIFzLJKg/s1600/9249-1.png"></a><br />
<br />
Back in UnPleasantview...<br />
<br />
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-fwm0EBkKF4g/T01aBlUTnRI/AAAAAAAAAS8/40e4k12_Swo/s1600/9250-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-fwm0EBkKF4g/T01aBlUTnRI/AAAAAAAAAS8/40e4k12_Swo/s1600/9250-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
I can't really tell if he's glad to be back home or not.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-BSzl6h3_Ihg/T01aDw0W04I/AAAAAAAAATE/fFYOZqftYeA/s1600/9252-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-BSzl6h3_Ihg/T01aDw0W04I/AAAAAAAAATE/fFYOZqftYeA/s1600/9252-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
But the home business has expanded to include Thayer's Roll and Bowl in the backyard. Hanley really enjoys skating.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-uO3UOmFU-jo/T01aGJDz-SI/AAAAAAAAATM/pgSptxAt8Jo/s1600/9253-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-uO3UOmFU-jo/T01aGJDz-SI/AAAAAAAAATM/pgSptxAt8Jo/s1600/9253-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
After all this time, Tristen is still very upset with Fulton, and regularly stalks by the house.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-73wkQHZaOSE/T01aIClUb-I/AAAAAAAAATU/79HuOHMbceo/s1600/9254-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-73wkQHZaOSE/T01aIClUb-I/AAAAAAAAATU/79HuOHMbceo/s1600/9254-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Tonight she kicked over the garbage can.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-8jJdvAV9S9w/T01aKEAB_OI/AAAAAAAAATc/7ab8SaIW0MI/s1600/9255-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-8jJdvAV9S9w/T01aKEAB_OI/AAAAAAAAATc/7ab8SaIW0MI/s1600/9255-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Even though he no longer lives there, I was happy to see Blair Bigfoot who was very nice and came and recycled the garbage for them.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-7-mwhNujSLM/T01aNWvysyI/AAAAAAAAATk/oQm98QaLsX4/s1600/9257-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-7-mwhNujSLM/T01aNWvysyI/AAAAAAAAATk/oQm98QaLsX4/s1600/9257-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
The next morning, they discovered that the hydrobot had broken and was making a huge mess in the back yard.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-N3uje3ZcRyc/T01aPxHK-QI/AAAAAAAAATs/IWN2Yc2K0nM/s1600/9258-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-N3uje3ZcRyc/T01aPxHK-QI/AAAAAAAAATs/IWN2Yc2K0nM/s1600/9258-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Apparently, it had been going on for quite some time, as there were weeds<i> everywhere</i>.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-hLvIkPul5aY/T01aSw8HCTI/AAAAAAAAAT0/XI17qPpR3NQ/s1600/9259-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-hLvIkPul5aY/T01aSw8HCTI/AAAAAAAAAT0/XI17qPpR3NQ/s1600/9259-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
So much for hydrobots being labor savers. Thankfully, the gardener should be arriving soon. He'll be very busy today.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-3WZNXJ68P08/T01aVJrZKmI/AAAAAAAAAT8/wv-QZW83PuQ/s1600/9260-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-3WZNXJ68P08/T01aVJrZKmI/AAAAAAAAAT8/wv-QZW83PuQ/s1600/9260-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
I'm not sure why, but the game camera decided to point to one of the customers, Mary-Sue Pleasant. I guess this is a commercial for Thayer's Roll and Bowl. Come on down and get fit while having fun!<br />
<br />
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-oXFI3TjS8i8/T01aWNsBokI/AAAAAAAAAUE/ZFDFIwMx3gA/s1600/9261-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-oXFI3TjS8i8/T01aWNsBokI/AAAAAAAAAUE/ZFDFIwMx3gA/s1600/9261-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
They also hired a maid, Lucy Hanby.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-OiIkxcymDWA/T01aYqFJhwI/AAAAAAAAAUM/fSBMd1qWgIA/s1600/9262-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-OiIkxcymDWA/T01aYqFJhwI/AAAAAAAAAUM/fSBMd1qWgIA/s1600/9262-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Despite swooning for her, Hanley still finds her repulsive. It doesn't make any sense, since she's not even a romance sim.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-UxxSQtoKPXY/T01aa9NwAeI/AAAAAAAAAUU/7cIo7__T7ls/s1600/9265-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-UxxSQtoKPXY/T01aa9NwAeI/AAAAAAAAAUU/7cIo7__T7ls/s1600/9265-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Hanley joins in the favorite family pastime with his Uncle Fulton.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-RMfYqoh11pM/T01acmzb5GI/AAAAAAAAAUc/hpvBGZrsl50/s1600/9267-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-RMfYqoh11pM/T01acmzb5GI/AAAAAAAAAUc/hpvBGZrsl50/s1600/9267-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
Instead of going to the Roll and Bowl and having fun like a normal person, Chester Gieke creepily hangs out in the kids' bedroom above the garage. It looks like it's time to get <a href="http://drupal.cyjon.net/node/107" target="_blank">lockable garage doors</a>.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-27cAfel8CTM/T0108wWKdOI/AAAAAAAAAVM/aPqeUbnQjAo/s1600/9019-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-27cAfel8CTM/T0108wWKdOI/AAAAAAAAAVM/aPqeUbnQjAo/s1600/9019-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
These are the family trees that are invaluable to me as I write this.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-bsZmwglS3VE/T011EQcmQzI/AAAAAAAAAVU/CFoXsDbAMuM/s1600/9021-1.png"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-bsZmwglS3VE/T011EQcmQzI/AAAAAAAAAVU/CFoXsDbAMuM/s1600/9021-1.png" /></a><br />
<br />
The number of ugly Thayer's is getting hard for me to keep straight otherwise. ;)<br />
<br />
The next chapter should bring in the 5th generation of ugly Thayers. See you soon! Thank you for reading! :)<br />

<br />
According to the poll I have here and on <a href="http://twoflowery.livejournal.com/3393.html" target="_blank">LiveJournal</a>, it looks like Hanley is the clear winner unless a lot of people come vote for Iago in the next few hours. Adding the 2 polls together, Hanley had 18 votes, and Iago had 4 votes so far. I won't move Hanley home until the results are <i>official</i>, though. Thank you to everyone who voted! :D<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=9019-3.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/9019-3.png" /></a><br />
<br />
So, welcome back to UnPleasantview. Most of the pictures in this update were taken and edited about 4 years ago, although I did <i>not </i>write about them back then (darn!), and I don't have any idea if they're even in the correct order. So I will do my best to just to remember the basics and get us caught up to where I can play again. BTW, this update is cross-posted to <a href="http://twoflowery.livejournal.com/" target="_blank">my LiveJournal</a>.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=9019-2.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/9019-2.png" /></a> <br />
<br />
But first, this is the family tree through Generation 3. I never did decide between Garridan and Fulton for Gen. 3 heir. At the end of this update, I added family trees for Fulton and Garridan. I didn't add them up here, because some of the people aren't born yet. Making the family trees kind of helped me sort everyone out in my mind, because it's a big family now with a lot of ugly kids. If you want spoilers, you can look at them at the bottom of the update.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot384ch9.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot384ch9.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot384ch9.jpg" /></a> <br />
<br />
Anyway, it looks like AckBot was doing a great job of taking care of Fulton and Tristen's twins, Mara and Neron. They're probably letting him do <i>everything</i> since he's the one growing them up.<br />
<br />

<br />
As toddlers, they don't look very ugly yet.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot004.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot004.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot004.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
It looks like some some stupid townies are paying some high prices to smustle out on the Thayer's lawn. That's how the family is now so rich and can afford to pay their really high bills. Although, it would help if the guests wouldn't block the mailbox so they could actually get to the mailbox to pay their bills.<br />
<br />

<br />
Mara grew up to be a child. She was still not that ugly yet.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot008.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot008.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot008.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Their son Neron also became a child and doesn't look that ugly yet either...<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot010.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot010.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot010.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Although his nose is a bit questionable. Time will tell.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot013.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot013.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot013.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Ackbot earned his gold gardening badge. I'm surprised he didn't automatically have the gold badge since he was created by Ackerley who was by that time a plantsim.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot016.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot016.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot016.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Garridan and Marisa's daughter Leah grew up to be a teen.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot019.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot019.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot019.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Mara wants a family. She prefers stinky, artistic types, who don't cake on clown makeup.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot020.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot020.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot020.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Yeah, she's ugly, but not quite ugly enough.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot021.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot021.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot021.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
She gets shipped off to college right away with an impressive §5000 in scholarships.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot022.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot022.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot022.jpg" /> </a><br />
<br />
Where she became a little uglier.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot024.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot024.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot024.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Garridan moved in his island girlfriend Carla. Oh my gosh, Garridan is so UGG-ly! I can't imagine kissing that face. I should have just picked him as heir.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot029.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot029.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot029.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Garridan and Carla proceeded to try to make ugly babies together.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot030.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot030.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot030.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Carla wants 20 best friends. She'll have to pick people who like her personality, because her looks aren't going to help her much.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot031.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot031.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot031.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Sandy takes out her post-mortal frustrations on Fultons's new family.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot036.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot036.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot036.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
A drama professor came over and caused some drama, leading to some marital problems for Fulton and Tristen.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot037.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot037.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot037.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Which led to some roaches from the overly-dramatic trash can kicker.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot038.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot038.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot038.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Tristen got the flu - probably from the roaches.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot039.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot039.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot039.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Neron and Mara had teen birthdays.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot040.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot040.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot040.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
While the drama professor came to steal the newspaper.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot041.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot041.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot041.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Mara didn't look that bad, but Neron's looks were worsening.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot042.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot042.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot042.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
He's still not as ugly as Iago or Hanley, though.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot043.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot043.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot043.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Mara became a Pleasure sim who likes fit guys with brown hair, but doesn't like hats.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot044.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot044.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot044.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Neron became a Romance sim, LOL. He likes hard-working girls who are athletic, but wants them to have normal hair.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot045.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot045.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot045.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
The twins are reacting a little late to the newspaper thief, but they are in sync.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot047.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot047.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot047.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Mara and Neron went right off to college.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot048.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot048.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot048.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Both of them got §3500 in scholarships.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot049.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot049.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot049.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Mara chose a hideous outfit. Her half-brother Iago welcomed her to the university with a primal yell. It's hereditary. :P<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot050.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot050.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot050.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Neron got impressively ugly in college, but according to my husband and sons, was still nothing to Iago and Hanley.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot058.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot058.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot058.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Carla decided to give birth to twins in the kitchen - in her undies, of course.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot059.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot059.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot059.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
There was a big crowd there to watch thanks to the home business.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot062.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot062.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot062.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
This is Carla and Garridan's son Orson.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot064.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot064.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot064.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
And of course there will be another... only I don't have the picture for some reason.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot065.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot065.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot065.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
But here is the picture of Orson as a bald toddler.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot067.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot067.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot067.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
And this is his twin sister Petra, finally.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot002.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot002.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot002.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
AckBot is trying to run away from what I can only assume was some kind of spontaneous combustion.<br />
<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot080.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot080.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot080.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
So he was on fire and decided to run over next the toddler.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot081.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot081.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot081.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Forutunately, Garridan found some hidden parental skills from deep down within, and he tried to save his baby girl.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot086.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot086.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot086.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Carla was also in serious danger.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot087.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot087.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot087.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Thankfully, Garridan was able to put out the fire, saving several from death, including AckBot, who is now having a breakdown.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot089.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot089.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot089.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
I guess if I were scoring this legacy I'd be unhappy right now.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot092.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot092.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot092.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Petra grew to be a child, and she looks like she has some serious mouth and jaw UGG in her future.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot095.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot095.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot095.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Orson is a little less extreme so far.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot098.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot098.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot098.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Fulton and Carla decided autonomously (and this was before ACR) to flirt or something. And this was in front of Tristen and Garridan.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot099.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot099.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot099.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
So Fulton caused problems not only for his marriage...<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot100.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot100.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot100.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
But for Garridan's relationship, too. Now there's all kinds of trouble and slapping in the Thayer house.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot102.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot102.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot102.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
After she slapped him for cheating on her, Fulton told Tristen to leave.<br />
<br />

<br />
And Garridan must have told Petra to leave too, because she left. Poor kids.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot403.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot403.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot403.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
The bitterness lasted quite awhile. To this day, Garridan is really mad at his brother for flirting with Carla. Garridan and Fulton are both in love with Carla, so I don't think bringing her back is the answer, unless I finally move out Fulton. I haven't decided yet. There really is no point in moving her back since Garridan doesn't need any more children.<br />
<br />

<br />
Fulton is still a little mad at Tristen now. I checked, and their relationship is at a 3 for daily and 3 for lifetime. They only have one bolt, and they also don't need children. Both brothers are as mean as they are ugly and only have 1 nice point each, and I just don't feel inclined to help either of them out. But they do have ACR now, so they might get lucky somehow, someday.<br />
<br />

<br />
AckBot finally fulfilled his LTW, which means he won't have to have any more aspiration failures.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot402.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot402.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot402.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Now I can just let him do whatever he wants without trying to keep him happy.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot413.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot413.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot413.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
I guess Fulton is doing a lot of drinking nowadays.<br />
<br />

<br />
Just for informational purposes, I guess I had tested aging up Petra and Orson. <br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/?action=view&current=ScreenShot477.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="ScreenShot477.jpg" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/C%2012/ScreenShot477.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
As teens, Orson doesn't look quite as bad as Petra to me.<br />
<br />

<br />
As young adults, Orson's mouth and jaw are really fat, but he's not <i>hideous</i>.<br />
<br />

<br />
Petra actually seemed to get a little less ugly with age. Anyway, despite these preview pictures, Orson and Petra are still kids and are still living at the Thayer house. According to my test, they just weren't ugly enough to be heir. That means that all that breeding was for nothing, LOL. I got the 2 ugliest kids back when Garridan and Marisa had their first son Hanley, and when Fulton and Sandy had their first son Iago. I should have stopped there. :P But I didn't, and I guess it was sorta fun to go through all that just to see what would happen.<br />
<br />

<br />
And now I'll leave you with Petra's smustle face. I should be playing the 4th generation soon.<br />
<br />

<br />
This is Fulton's pieced together family tree. I added in Tristen and Sandy. Tristen is the mother of Neron and Mara. Sandy is the mother of Iago and Job. <br />
<br />

<br />
This is Garridan's pieced together family tree. I added Carla's picture to the side. She's the mother of Orson and Petra who still live with their father. Marisa was the mother of Hanley, Kermit and Leah.Twoflowerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18044164183399754449noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2438265161573630585.post-31006318266206966582012-02-07T14:55:00.000-08:002012-02-07T14:57:14.100-08:00Ch. 11: Ugly AfflictionSometimes I surprise myself, like when I realized last night that I had already written the next chapter of the story years ago, but then didn't post it when I thought my neighborhood was gone. So, yay! I think it's pretty good for something I wrote about 4 years ago. I made some choices (killed off some sims, LOL) back then that I might not have chosen now to do now. But, in my defense, they are townies we see all the time in everyone's game, so they're always alive somewhere. Oh, and I renamed the town UnPleasantview now, which seems much more descriptive. Since this is still old stuff, the heir poll is still in effect until Valentine's Day, so please vote if you want to have your say for the future of the UGG Legacy.<br />
<br />

<br />
And so this is where the story picks up again:<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
And now we are back in the little town of Pleasantview where everything is all quaint and sweet.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/?action=view&current=ScreenShot075ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot075ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/ScreenShot075ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Yeah, right.<br />
<br />
Marisa did take the cake. But come on, anyone of normal intelligence could see that a piece of cake suspiciously suspended in a gaping mouth filled with large, pointy teeth might just be a trap. I put the blame entirely on her being a townie. Townies don't have parents to warn them about taking <s>candy</s> cake from strange<s>rs</s> plants.<br />
<br />
OK, fine, I'll just admit it: <b>I didn't like her anymore, so I killed her</b>. And I am glad I did. I'm relieved to no longer have to keep Marisa off the brink of aspiration failure. Of course, at the time of this editing, I may have let her live in a state of aspirational failure. I've changed my playing style since I played this, and I'm going for more realism and much less perfection. But what is done is done.<br />
<br />
No one mourned Marisa except Ackerley. At least Ackerley cares. He may be a mean sim by definition, but inside he isn't. He cares about everyone in his family, even his stupid daughters-in-law.<br />
<br />

<br />
Brandi and Purple Jacket Lady were just sad that there was no more cake. I would be glad to let Brandi have a piece, but it is the Legacy lot after all. <s>As it is, I will be saving the Marisa Juice for the time being to avoid any real accidents.</s> Although, since I don't really care about points anymore, Brandi can come back any time and enjoy some cake. Brandi is one of my least favorite townies - right down there with Kennedy Cox.<br />
<br />

<br />
Garridan doesn't care that his wife is dead. He and his brother Fulton have the philosophy that every problem in life can be solved by pounding your chest and letting out a primal yell. And they have just the primal faces to match.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/?action=view&current=ScreenShot078ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot078ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/ScreenShot078ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
With Marisa gone, there was room for another ugly baby in the Thayer house. I sent Sandy to have some elixir since she was too close to elder to "try for baby." Unfortunately, her aspiration was in the green and the effect backfired, aging her instantly to elder. Now I have to say here that I did <i>not </i>expect that. Seriously. But then when should it do that but when I don't want it to. Generally, if I want to age a sim up that's in green aspiration, it makes them younger. So I guess this is just an illustration of "Sim Murphy's Law of Elixir" at work.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/?action=view&current=ScreenShot079ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot079ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/ScreenShot079ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Darn you, Old Sandy. Anyway, Sandy was just like Marisa - a sim that always wanted the impossible -- like to woo-hoo 20 sims. She was always looking to fall in love with customers of the home business. It was so not going to happen. So to punish me she was always near aspiration failure as well. See the crazy look in her eye? I think she's gone senile. Yeah, that's my excuse.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/?action=view&current=ScreenShot089ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot089ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/ScreenShot089ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Old Sandy found a huge pair of scissors just suspiciously lying out in the driveway and since she was also a townie with no parents, she had never been taught not to run with scissors.<br />
<br />
Right.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/?action=view&current=ScreenShot129ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot129ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/ScreenShot129ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
That's right little Job, smile now because you're about to experience affliction.<br />
<br />

<br />
Old Sandy's scissors experiment didn't last very long, and it didn't turn out the way she'd hoped. It turns out that running with scissors is a very bad idea after all. It seems my mother was right. ;)<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/?action=view&current=ScreenShot091ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot091ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/ScreenShot091ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
I guess Grimmy has seen enough Legacies to know what's going on here. Sadly, (ha ha) no one was nearby to plead for Old Sandy's life. Life is so unfair sometimes.<br />
<br />
*"THERE IS NO JUSTICE, JUST ME."<br />
<br />
*<span style="font-size: 78%;">this is a quote from Terry Pratchett's version of Death, an anthropomorphic personification who loves kitties and speaks in all caps.</span><br />
<br />
Good point, Grimmy. ;)<br />
<br />

<br />
If you look closely, you will see that again Ackerley is the only one mourning again. Fulton is doing the chest pounding again. Fulton did not mourn Sandy's passing. He just wondered why she never came back for the woo-hoo. She went downstairs to have some elixir and never came back. I told you, didn't I?<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">OK, I'll admit I gave Old Sandy the scissors to run with, too.</span> Big shocker, right? I know I'm mean, but some sims are just too tedious to play..<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/?action=view&current=ScreenShot104ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot104ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/ScreenShot104ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
But something good came of the new vacancies in the Thayer home. There was now room for Ackerley's new creation. His name is AckBot, and he will have the same personality as his creator. This is good, because Ackerley only has a tiny sliver of life left on his life bar. Ackerley wants to ensure the future of his family. He can't live forever, but as much as he is able, he can put his heart into something that will carry on and be like him, and possibly save his posterity from incompetent idiots like his sons.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/?action=view&current=ScreenShot110ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot110ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/ScreenShot110ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
It didn't take Fulton long to find a replacement for Sandy. He's a romance sim who needs some lovin'. He knows I won't let him live out all of his annoying romance wants, so marriage is the only way he's getting, ahem, <span style="font-style: italic;">any</span>. Tristen isn't exactly hideous, but she is a bit <s>odd-looking</s> bug-eyed. I think she may have something ugly to contribute to this family.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/?action=view&current=ScreenShot116ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot116ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/ScreenShot116ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
She's a fortune sim, so it didsn't surprise me that she decided to get married in the gold Diva dress to an old, very ugly rich guy. Can we say gold digger?<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/?action=view&current=ScreenShot118ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot118ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/ScreenShot118ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Even though it wasn't an official wedding party, it was well-attended. That's a first for this family. I guess it was somewhat of a spectacle since Sandy had just passed away that afternoon.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/?action=view&current=ScreenShot121ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot121ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/ScreenShot121ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
But wait, where'd the bride go??? Did she leave Fulton at the altar?<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/?action=view&current=ScreenShot120ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot120ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/ScreenShot120ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
No, there wasn't a chance she was going to pass up this opportunity. She just decided to skip the wedding kiss to go put down that heavy date bouquet. That couldn't wait, could it Tristen?<br />
<br />

<br />
The next evening brought a guest who has become a frequent visitor in the Thayer house lately. I see that Ackerley never changed out of his polyester leisure suit from the wedding. I'm really hoping he won't be wearing that as a ghost. Never mind, if he does it will just enhance the Uglacy.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/?action=view&current=ScreenShot133ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot133ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/ScreenShot133ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Job takes his affliction of losing his grandfather in stride. Why should he get off the phone just because his grandfather is dying? What good would it do to mourn anyway? I can see that he has learned well from his father Fulton. Ironically, the mean townie Komeii seems to take it the hardest of anyone.<br />
<br />

<br />
I think Ackerley is smiling now -- not so much for the complimentary drink with the little umbrella, but at the thought of being with Rose again.<br />
<br />

<br />
Why do you need this information? I have no idea. It's just one of those things.<br />
<br />

<br />
I may not have to kill Tristen, since she has a decent Lifetime Want. Lucky for her.<br />

It didn't take AckBot long after Ackerely's death to start drinking straight from the bottle. Ackerley had put too much of his caring into AckBot's circuits, and they were overloading continually because he was dealing with idiots. Hey now, don't be upset metal man. Look at it this way: the Thayer family puts the "fun" in dysfunctional.<br />
<br />

<br />
Soon Tristen was feeling the "fun," because all the simworld needs is more ugly Thayers.<br />
<br />

<br />
She had a baby girl named Mara. Mara is Hebrew for bigger. I have no idea now what was going through my head when I chose the name. I have nothing. Let's go for bigger ugly, kid!<br />
<br />

<br />
Tristen had to wait through the slow, methodical bed-making ceremony...<br />
<br />

<br />
...before she was allowed to give birth to Neron. Neron is Spanish for stern. Again, I have no idea why I chose it. I'll blame it entirely on a caffeine-deficiency. Maybe he will have a stern expression that makes him ugly? Gee, what lameness. I should remember to pick out names when I am awake. Either that, or I need to at least write down my lame reasoning for the names.<br />
<br />

<br />
Anyway, since Fulton is a retired elder now, I have him do a lot of the gardening that Ackerley used to do. Even though he's a new father again, he has very little to do now. With the large garden, it wasn't long before he had his gold gardening badge.<br />
<br />

<br />
AckBot is the reason for all the free time. Servos are wonderful at caring for babies, whether you want them to or not. as a matter of fact, if you have a Servo, it is darn near impossible to keep them away from babies and toddlers. And they're so much more competent than nannies.<br />
<br />

<br />
Leah became a toddler, and for an Uglacy girl may have some good potential in the nose/mouth area.<br />
<br />

<br />
She definitely has the fiery red-headed personality.<br />
<br />

<br />
Ackerley made his first ghostly appearance and was very disappointed that we moved his urn to the backyard instead of tripping over it for several generations on the living room floor. How insensitive of me to move it. :P<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/?action=view&current=ScreenShot316ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot316ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/ScreenShot316ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
At least Ackerley was able to find his bed, which makes him a relatively happy ghost.<br />
<br />

<br />
And speaking of ghosts, we're getting quite a collection, thanks in part to my efforts. ;) AckBot is always wanting to see them.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/?action=view&current=ScreenShot320ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot320ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/ScreenShot320ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
I guess you could say it's his favorite hobby as far as his wants panel in concerned. <s>Maybe when Free Time comes out, ghost-chasing can be a hobby.</s> Darn you, EAxis!<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/?action=view&current=ScreenShot319ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot319ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/ScreenShot319ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
It is a bit like herding cats to get a Servo to stop cooking and doing chores long enough to focus with on ghost-chasing, though.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/?action=view&current=ScreenShot364ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot364ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/ScreenShot364ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
One day he got some extra time for ghost-chasing as Rose was still out and about in the daytime. Sometimes she works overtime at being a scary menace. I think I notice her more now than I did when she was alive.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/?action=view&current=ScreenShot360ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot360ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/ScreenShot360ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Fulton definitely noticed her this particular night.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/?action=view&current=ScreenShot362ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot362ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/ScreenShot362ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Poor guy <i>almost </i>made it. Between the townies hogging the bathroom and refusing to leave and his mother's ghost scaring him, an accident was inevitable.<br />
<br />

<br />
Getting complaints is just a part of the home business experience here at the Thayer house. Garridan looks at me with doubt, but I encourage him to go ahead. I love to do this. No, I'm not going to kill her (not that I don't want to). Yes, it is time to use influence to get the annoying woman to go away and quit complaining for a few minutes.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/?action=view&current=ScreenShot358ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot358ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/ScreenShot358ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
And what better way to do that than to suggest that she demonstrate her cleaning expertise to us.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/?action=view&current=ScreenShot359ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot359ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/ScreenShot359ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
On her way to clean the house, I can see she is scratching her head, wondering how she got herself into this mess. Heh-heh.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/?action=view&current=ScreenShot310ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot310ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/ScreenShot310ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Garridan finally taught one of his own kids to talk. Will wonders never cease? I don't think he had the desire to do so, but he did have the free time.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/?action=view&current=ScreenShot351ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot351ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/ScreenShot351ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
And now it is time to see the results of selective breeding. Please Leah, I am weary of cuteness.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/?action=view&current=ScreenShot353ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot353ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/ScreenShot353ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Meh... I'm just not sure. I still detect a bit of cuteness there. Big luscious lips are not necessarily ugly on a girl. Just look at the silly women getting injections and surgery to get big lips. Well, Leah may have a bit <i>too much</i> of a good thing. Let's hope so.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/?action=view&current=ScreenShot322ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot322ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/ScreenShot322ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
And it's now time to see what we have in our new teen line. I'm not holding my breath for facial explosions with these two.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/?action=view&current=ScreenShot327ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot327ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/ScreenShot327ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
And I was right not to hold out much hope. I'm not too surprised as these two have never shown much UGG-tential. Kermit does have his father Garridan's fashion sense, though.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/?action=view&current=ScreenShot333ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot333ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/ScreenShot333ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
When he got to college, Job was the spitting image of his Uncle Evers, another miserable failure at being ugly.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/?action=view&current=ScreenShot334ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot334ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/ScreenShot334ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Kermit is actually the uglier of the two, however not that ugly. Maybe a change of hairstyle would help -- if we were trying to make him look<i> better</i>. As it is, we never want to do that in this Legacy. We take all the ugly we can get, and we are darn grateful when we can get it.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/?action=view&current=ScreenShot371ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot371ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/ScreenShot371ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Headmaster time. Again. Garridan stares at BJ, wondering if he's on a liquid diet. It takes him forever to finish his drink. 10 points for the headmaster drinking at the bar is not going to do much for the score if he skips dinner.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/?action=view&current=ScreenShot372ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot372ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/ScreenShot372ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
It was scary, but he finally decided to eat, much to everyone's relief.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/?action=view&current=ScreenShot374ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot374ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/ScreenShot374ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
And I think it's a pretty good score, so I have to show it off. ;) I rarely get rejections for private school anymore, but something usually goes wrong which keeps the score at just barely enough to get in.<br />
<br />
Leah looks confused about the whole private school acceptance system. Obviously, it should be based on academic merit, or on the family's ability to pay tuition -- not on schmoozing, pork chops, and the quality of the bathroom fixtures. At least that's my opinion.<br />
<br />

<br />
And now for a couple of wishing well photos. Since they have too much money and too many friends, I had them wish for love.<br />
<br />
AckBot got this girl from the sky, and he poked her in the face with his big cold metal eye, which for some reason she didn't seem to mind.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/?action=view&current=ScreenShot300ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot300ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2011/ScreenShot300ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
And Garridan got this girl. Cara actually means "face" in Spanish. Speaking of faces, have you noticed that she has Meadow's face? Well, we can't have intentional pretty in this house. If I were to let Garridan date an island girl, it would be the one he dated in college - Car<span style="font-weight: bold;">L</span>a. Carla has a Bruty-type face instead of Meadow-type face.<br />

But, I have reinstalled my game, and found that the neighborhood is surprisingly still intact (I really thought that I overwrote the data), and that I can <i>indeed</i> play this once more! It's almost like a Phoenix rising from the ashes - but <i>way uglier</i>. <br />
<br />
What really helps is that AnyGameStarter will finally, <i>finally</i> work for me, opening up a whole new world of possibilities - being able to play with different amounts of cc without having to try to move a ginormous downloads folder to do it. With an Uglacy, I feel that the less cc I use the better, as it seem to really help uglify everyone and everything. It's too bad I was afraid and waited over 4 years to try reinstalling, but now - onward!<br />
<br />
I have played beyond what is currently posted, but believe me when I tell you that Hanley and Iago are the clearly the ugliest sims I was able to get from Generation 4. There is little point in putting all the possible heirs to a vote, since according to my sons and husband, these two are decidedly the ugliest.<br />

There is a 3 to 1 winner in my house so far, but I'd like to do a poll here, which is up in the left top sidebar. I'll also be putting this on LiveJournal now that I have one. Please vote and let me know which of these will be the heir so I can finally move him home from college.

Back to our story: Joe Carr is here to introduce Chapter 10.<br />
<br />
Uh, Joe?<br />
<br />
"Oh, um... what?"<br />
<br />
Just kidding, Joe. Go back to your smustling attempt. After all, it is costing you $27 an hour. Make the most of that, LOL.<br />

<br />
However, I am proud to say that my simself was the only sim I noticed who after some thought was wise enough not buy a ticket to Meadow Thayer's Uglacy. I guess I should have given myself a free pass.<br />
<br />

<br />
At least Fulton is permaplat now that he's a Hall of Famer, so I won't have to worry about him as much anymore.<br />
<br />

<br />
Not that they really need it, but the family brings in extra money sometimes doing some personal training out in the garage.<br />
<br />

<br />
"Blond Goopy" doesn't like to get personal training from Rose, though. He weeps with sadness because she got on the exercise machine to show him how to use it.<br />
<br />
Wow, sensitive...<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot042ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot042ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot042ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
This is just a random picture illustrating how annoying some of the Bon Voyage greetings can be. Back in college Garridan briefly dated a girl named Carla who was from Twikki Island. I don't remember him learning "Hang Loose", and he stinks at it, but he still feels compelled to use it on everyone. He looks like he's going to fall over. Thankfully, no one else has picked up the island greeting yet.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot159ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot159ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot159ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
What is the deal, Garridan? Remember, <span style="font-style: italic;">Hang Loose</span>, man. He doesn't want to be a personal trainer for this guy and looks miserable at the thought of it. At least he isn't crying.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot224ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot224ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot224ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Marisa reached the top of the Slacker career, the job she had when she joined the family. It really isn't that helpful as it isn't her Lifetime Want.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot286ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot286ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot286ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
And Sandy, LOL, is now a Mad Scientist. I don't know why there is champagne on the sidewalk. It was just there -- possibly to celebrate? Anyway, just like Marisa, Sandy's career was not her Lifetime Want.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot220ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot220ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot220ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
But I agree that Sandy is a bit mad.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot283ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot283ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot283ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
The home business is still what it always was, although it's getting close to 10 stars despite my mean sims' efforts to tick off the customers.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot212ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot212ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot212ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
I had no idea that this was the reporter or that she was evaluating the business. I was very surprised to get a Best of the Best award -- especially since we allegedly "know what we're doing" and actually managed to impress the woman.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot219ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot219ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot219ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Maybe the business is doing better because I've been keeping Ackerley busy with gardening. He really doesn't have much to do anymore., so it keeps him from ticking off the customers or spying on Mortimer as much.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot227ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot227ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot227ch9.jpg" /></a><span style="font-size: 180%; font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;"><br />
Except...</span><br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot228ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot228ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot228ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Now he's a plant. But thankfully he's a knowledge sim, so he doesn't mind. He's happy being a plantsim. I built him a greenhouse now and added a few grow lights there and inside the house on the main floor to keep his sunlight need satisfied better.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot282ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot282ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot282ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Of course, he makes a great personal trainer when he isn't tending his garden.<br />
<br />
"It's go time! All aboard the pain train! Hey you puny Brussels Sprout, you'd better give it all you got or you'll never be pumped with fiber and iron like me!"<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot279ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot279ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot279ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
I decided I wanted a wishing well, so I had Ackerley try to get into the Garden Club. I had no idea the Garden Club hated pink flamingos. It makes sense because flamingos are tacky, but I didn't expect that any sims actually had good taste. ;)<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot280ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot280ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot280ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Of course thanks to Ackerley's hard work they were still able to get the wishing well with no problem.<br />
<br />

<br />
Alright, here's what you've probably come to see: the teen picture of Iago and Hanley. I wasn't trying to hold out on you, it's just that I had to catch up the story. ;) I shipped them directly off to college where I'm delighted to say their faces did more exploding.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot243ch9-1.jpg" title="ScreenShot243ch9-1.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot243ch9-1.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Aspirations and turn-ons/offs in case you care.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot244ch9-1.jpg" title="ScreenShot244ch9-1.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot244ch9-1.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Yep.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot245ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot245ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot245ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
College Iago looks just like his dad Fulton to me.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=10-3.jpg" title="10-3.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/10-3.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
College Hanley looks a great deal like his father Garridan except he doesn't really have the Cro-Magnon brow. I think perhaps the large brow on Garridan actually made his face a little more balanced, LOL. It also looks like Hanley is trying to be like his Uncle Chesley with the headband.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot044ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot044ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot044ch9.jpg" style="height: 528px; width: 400px;" /></a><br />
<br />
BTW, apparently Chesley now wears a suit for his everyday outfit instead of pajamas. It's so strange to see him dressed so formally.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot294ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot294ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot294ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Garridan achieved his Lifetime Want of becoming Education Minister. Again, less micromanagement makes me happy.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot277ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot277ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot277ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Gotta love some of these chance cards when they bring in an easy $40,000. Fulton decided to "give speech" instead of "smile pretty."<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot293ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot293ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot293ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
How does all the trash get into the CleanBot? I have it to clean up bottles and plates, but when it malfunctions it spits out all kinds of stuff. I guess it's just one of the great scientific mysteries of the sim world.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot260ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot260ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot260ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Yep, now that Hanley and Iago went to college, Garridan and Marisa now have another baby boy named Kermit. Kermit is a Celtic name meaning <span style="font-style: italic;">free. </span>Let's just hope he looks like a frog. Notice that bed-making is still the traditional way for fathers in the Thayer house to welcome new babies into the world.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot253ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot253ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot253ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Fulton and Sandy also had another baby boy. Fulton also makes the bed to celebrate. Anyway, this is little Job. Job is Hebrew meaning <span style="font-style: italic;">the afflicted. </span>If you are familiar with the Old Testament you will know that Job was seriously afflicted with all sorts of troubles, and that his name is pronounced with a long "o" sound and not like the work type of "job." Let's hope little Job will be afflicted with some serious ugliness.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot261ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot261ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot261ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
What is it Fulton? What could be so frightening?<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot262ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot262ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot262ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Oh, it's just your naked wife Sandy. You are married, remember? So now just flush the toilet while she's in the shower. I'm sure she won't mind.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot266ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot266ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot266ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Oops, maybe she doesn't like being scalded with extra-hot water after all. My bad.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot273ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot273ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot273ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
As soon as she griped him out, she autonomously grabbed him for a make-out session. I guess she enjoys making up by making out. Silly romance sims. Of course, Marisa had to barge in to swoon at Fulton. Stop it, Marisa! You have your own ugly man around here somewhere.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot289ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot289ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot289ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Kermit has turned toddler and shows absolutely no desire to look like a frog.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot291ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot291ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot291ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Similarly, Job as a toddler doesn't seem to be very afflicted with ugly yet. These two kids appear to be a waste of space so far. :P<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot295ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot295ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot295ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Rose who is a Fortune sim has finally rolled a few family wants to train Kermit in his toddler skills.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot001ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot001ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot001ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
It's heart-warming to watch. I have really liked Rose. She has been a pleasant, easy to please sim who is good at taking care of herself. As a matter of fact, I love her because I could ignore her almost all the time. Too bad her life bar is so full now, because I will actually almost miss her.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot002ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot002ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot002ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Sandy and Marisa have not been so easy to keep happy, however. They are both high-maintenance - always wanting things they can't have.<br />
<br />
Sandy does not seem like the type to be a Mad Scientist, does she? I would have changed her job, but I was too lazy.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot009ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot009ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot009ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
I don't mind the $55,000 chance card, though. The answer was green this time in case you're wondering.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot010ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot010ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot010ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Speaking of green, there's a lot of it in this picture. Ackerley really loves his Rose. Come to think of it, it makes sense that her name is Rose in light of him being a plantsim.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot012ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot012ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot012ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
And now it is time to say good-bye to Rose. BTW in case you're wondering, Bill Door is the name of Death in the book Reaper Man by one of my favorite authors, Terry Pratchett.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot014ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot014ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot014ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
But Rose is excited to be going somewhere finally. She always had a vacation in her wants panel. Even though the family owns 3 vacation homes, she has only been able to go on one vacation. Poor Ackerley looks like he is wilting from sadness.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot017ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot017ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot017ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Although nothing perks up a sim like looking at a "Best of the Best" award. :P<br />

<br />
Of course the phone kept ringing during the entirety of Rose's passing moments. The phone was for her, of course. Calling back later won't make her undead, lady.<br />
<br />

<br />
And now that there is one empty space in the Thayer house, it is time for another baby.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot022ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot022ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot022ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
This time it is a contest between the two couples to see which one can fill the empty slot. ;) They are trying for baby at the exact same time.<br />
<br />
<img alt="" src="file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/Michelle%20Bowden/My%20Documents/PrintScreen%20Files/ScreenShot026ch9.jpg" /><a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot026ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot026ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot026ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
So guess who won the baby lottery?<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot020ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot020ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot020ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Ackerley gives a gift to Fulton after passing on the business perks. It is full of produce, LOL.<br />
<br />
"Son, don't tell your brother, but you have always been my favorite, and I really hope you will be heir."<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot006ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot006ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot006ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
He also passes on business perks and produce to Garridan, who appears to be afraid he is receiving a bomb.<br />
<br />
"Son, don't tell your brother, but you have always been my favorite, and I really hope you will be heir."<br />
<br />
Secretly, Ackerley thinks both his sons who are vying for heir are doofuses. He doesn't really care who is heir, he's just worried about who will care for the children when he is gone. Neither of his sons or daughters-in-law are competent parents in his opinion.<br />
<br />

<br />
Time for Kermit to become a child.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot029ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot029ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot029ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Other than wearing green, he still has no frog-like qualities.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot031ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot031ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot031ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Let's see if Job will become afflicted.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot033ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot033ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot033ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
No, he isn't very ugly yet. Darn.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot057ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot057ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot057ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
And now finally the ugly twins have aged to a ripe old age...<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot061ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot061ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot061ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Yep, still ugly - perhaps a bit more so now that they are elders.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot070ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot070ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot070ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
And now for retirement so I don't have to really care about you anymore.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot063ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot063ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot063ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Same for Garridan.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot065ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot065ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot065ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Headmaster time again, this time to get Kermit and Job in. I get so tired of doing these, but at least it usually goes well.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot069ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot069ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot069ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
And finally another baby. This time we actually got a girl. Her name is Leah, which means <span style="font-style: italic;">weary</span>. I'm getting weary of kids that aren't ugly. Please be an ugly girl, Leah.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/?action=view&current=ScreenShot071ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot071ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%2010/ScreenShot071ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Speaking of weary, this chapter is coming to a weary end. Has Marisa become weary of living, or is she just stupidly hungry for cake? Maybe she assumes that this is some early birthday cake since she is a couple of days from elder. Tune in next time when you may find out... stuff, such as how much longer this heir contest can go. You may just be surprised/more annoyed with me. ;)Twoflowerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18044164183399754449noreply@blogger.com8tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2438265161573630585.post-5397282387447785512007-12-06T00:01:00.000-08:002012-01-30T05:03:28.487-08:00Ch. 9 The Heirship Is Up in the AirI apologize for the lack of updates. My unreliable internet connection has made blogging very difficult. I finally got a modem upgrade a few days ago, and so far things are much better.<br />
<br />
Now back to the ugliness if you dare look...<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/?action=view&current=ScreenShot164ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot164ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/ScreenShot164ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Winter is a time of fertility... at least it is here at the Thayer house. Both Marisa and Sandy are expecting. I could never pick an heir for Generation 3 between Fulton and Garridan. They were just so flipping ugly -- each in his own special way. So I decided I will pick the ugliest heir of the 4th Generation. Fulton and Garridan will share the title of heir until such a time as I have decided on the ugliest of their children.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/?action=view&current=ScreenShot040.jpg" title="ScreenShot040.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/ScreenShot040.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
"Booga, Booga!" Meadow must be trying to send Fulton a message to eat more fruit.<br />
<br />
Somehow I doubt regularity is a problem for Fulton at the moment.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/?action=view&current=ScreenShot193ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot193ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/ScreenShot193ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Meadow still loves her bed. However, I'm sure Ackerley and Rose would prefer that she not walk through them like that.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/?action=view&current=ScreenShot039.jpg" title="ScreenShot039.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/ScreenShot039.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Russ is happy with his bed, even though it's not really his bed -- just an upstairs one he got away with sleeping in sometimes. But who am I to argue as long as he is a happy ghost.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/?action=view&current=ScreenShot034.jpg" title="ScreenShot034.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/ScreenShot034.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Mortimer never tires of shoving around the peeping-toms at the Thayer house. At least Ackerley doesn't cry like a little girl.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/?action=view&current=ScreenShot169ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot169ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/ScreenShot169ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
There really seems to be no reason to peep at Mortimer when we have so much skin here. Sandy loves her undies and parades them at every possible opportunity. As you can see, there's a lot of waddling parades now.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/?action=view&current=ScreenShot174ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot174ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/ScreenShot174ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Speaking of undies, Marisa is also fond of showing off hers as well. This picture is not for the faint of heart, and possibly crosses some serious boundaries of decorum. And that's not to mention that it looks physically impossible to dance like that while that pregnant.<br />
<br />
Hey, all I do is report what happens. I can only control so much of what these stupid sims decide to do.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/?action=view&current=ScreenShot175ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot175ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/ScreenShot175ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Katy sitting over there on the couch shows impressive restraint by keep her head and eyes facing forward instead of gawking at the ugly spectacle before her..<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/?action=view&current=ScreenShot176ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot176ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/ScreenShot176ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Nice. Now I see that my sims not only make lobster thermidor for themselves, but are serving complimentary lobster to the customers. Sims have no business sense whatsoever.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/?action=view&current=ScreenShot177ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot177ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/ScreenShot177ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Alvin Futa didn't seem to mind eating free lobster with 2 nearly naked ladies. As you can see, he's trying to get an even closer eyeful of Sandy's nether regions. Hey Alvin, eyes on the lobster you underage perv!<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/?action=view&current=ScreenShot008.jpg" title="ScreenShot008.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/ScreenShot008.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Pains from all that dirty dancing? I wish. But it's time for a potentially ugly addition to the Thayer family. Ackerley is trying to remember what he should do. Panicking is generally what sims do (unless they're busy making the bed), so he's doing just fine. Sometimes people want to boil water, for whatever reason, but sims don't have that option in their menus.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/?action=view&current=ScreenShot181ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot181ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/ScreenShot181ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Soon there was a whole line-up of sims who didn't know what to do, putting up their hands and looking skyward -- possibly beseeching me for an answer to the question of the meaning of life. Garridan is hiding behind his dad for safety. He's heard the stories of women in labor sometimes being violent.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/?action=view&current=ScreenShot182ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot182ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/ScreenShot182ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
"Woo-hoo, may I have your attention please? Now that everyone is present and accounted for, this meeting will now commence. First up on the agenda: This his hurts like hell! That, and I think it's here! Is anyone taking minutes? Where's Garridan? He did this to me!"<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/?action=view&current=ScreenShot183ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot183ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/ScreenShot183ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
But soon the meeting was adjourned, and Marisa was only thinking of how beautiful her baby boy Hanley is. Hanley means "of the high meadow."<br />
<br />
Have you ever seen a really ugly mutt? You know that they all start out as adorable puppies, which is why people adore puppies. It's just when they grow up that you know what they really look like. Babies in the sims are like that.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/?action=view&current=ScreenShot185ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot185ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/ScreenShot185ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/?action=view&current=ScreenShot185ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot185ch9.jpg"></a><br />
As soon as he's born, Sandy tries to swipe Hanley. Her plan is to claim him as her own so she doesn't have to go through the labor process herself.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/?action=view&current=ScreenShot187ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot187ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/ScreenShot187ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Of course, her plan didn't work. Fulton is definitely feeling a bit of hostility from Sandy. He's going to go away to a safe distance now and assume the skyward-looking position with his hands in the air.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/?action=view&current=ScreenShot189ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot189ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/ScreenShot189ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Soon Sandy's pain is over and she holds little Iago, another beautiful baby boy who is probably doomed to be at least as ugly as his parents. Iago is the villain in Shakespeare's play Othello. Let's hope he turns out to be villainously ugly.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/?action=view&current=ScreenShot195ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot195ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/ScreenShot195ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
So we finally break tradition by having a cake for Hanley's toddler birthday. Of course, it was glitchy and didn't work. Thankfully, I have the baby controller from MATY to grow up babies when they get glitched.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/?action=view&current=ScreenShot197ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot197ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/ScreenShot197ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Here is Hanley. He appears to have some major potential in the lip department.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/?action=view&current=ScreenShot199ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot199ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/ScreenShot199ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
And now let's see how Iago looks. He's already ripping his father's heart right out of his chest.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/?action=view&current=ScreenShot200ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot200ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/ScreenShot200ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
He's a little cue ball with lips. He looks like he will have big cheeks as well.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/?action=view&current=ScreenShot191ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot191ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/ScreenShot191ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Ackerley does not look pleased with me for having him retire. Poor General Thayer, I know he was upset enough over losing his helicopter ride when I made him drive his car to work. Now he will have to give up the uniform too.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/?action=view&current=ScreenShot004.jpg" title="ScreenShot004.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/ScreenShot004.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
But Ackerley is a really good grandfather just like his father Russ was. He always rolls up the toddler-training wants.<br />

Before I knew it, the twins had learned all their skills and were ready to become children.<br />

<br />
More and more I'm seeing that except for their red hair they, they look exactly like their fathers did. This doesn't help me at all, boys!<br />
<br />

<br />
Hanley looks thrilled to be getting lessons in lying from his grandpa. Hey, it least it doesn't give kids a shock. Actually, I was pretty disappointed that it doesn't. ;)<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/?action=view&current=ScreenShot211ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot211ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/ScreenShot211ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Hanley's smart milk wore off which is why he's getting extra tutoring. Iago is still extra smart, so he skills alone. Hanley is actually using the punching bag too. He is taking advantage of the extra-cool glitch that allows you to be trained on multiple career rewards at the same time.<br />
<br />
If you don't know about this, it's worth learning. If you have a very skilled sim and several career rewards, have the sim wanting to learn "ask for lesson" from the skilled sim. Then when the blue learning meter is over their head, have them "ask for lesson" again. It can be on the same career reward or a different one. They will continue learning the first thing while starting to learn another. Do this several times, and your sim will learn at a <span style="font-style: italic;">very</span> rapid rate.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/?action=view&current=ScreenShot237ch9.jpg" title="ScreenShot237ch9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%209/ScreenShot237ch9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
And now the twins do a synchronized spin into teens. Will there be an obvious uglier twin?<br />
<br />
Tune in next time to see the ugly and follow the further ugly adventures of the Thayer's UGG Legacy. Thanks for reading. :)<br />

</span><span style="font-size: 100%; line-height: 115%;">I really like Blair, but I decided to have him move in with Beverley and Phoenix to make room for the heir's spouse and future children. Sorry, Blair.<br />
<br />
So do you think I decided yet? Who do you think the heir will be?<br />

</span><span style="font-size: 100%; line-height: 115%;">Now would be a good time to show you Fulton and Garridan's Lifetime Wants. At least they both have reasonable goals. This will give them a much better chance of dying of old age. ;)</span><span style="font-size: 100%;"><br />

<br />
</span><span style="font-size: 100%; line-height: 115%;">I figured as much, but I had to try. Someday this will be a future member of the Thayer family if there's ever enough room and someone with a good aspiration & personality at the same time to initialize it.</span><span style="font-size: 100%;"><br />
<br />

<br />
</span><span style="font-size: 100%; line-height: 115%;">Sometimes the place is just overrun with complaining customers. Time to send Brandi home before she sends Rose or Garridan into aspiration failure. Rose seems glad that Brandi is mad, or maybe she's just glad that Russ doesn't take any crap from her.</span><span style="font-size: 100%;"><br />
<br />

<br />
</span><span style="font-size: 100%; line-height: 115%;">Meadow passed away, but since Fulton was on a date I missed knowing about it until it was too late to get a last picture of her. Meadow was an easy-going, pleasant sim. She was a good wife and mother. She achieved permaplat by reaching her LTW of becoming Education Minister. She was cute, had a cute voice, and loved to Smustle while making funny faces. I used to think she was a stuck-up brat, but she really grew on me. I will miss her.<br />
<br />
</span><span style="font-size: 100%;"><a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%208/?action=view&current=ScreenShot085.jpg" title="ScreenShot085.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%208/ScreenShot085.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
</span><span style="font-size: 100%; line-height: 115%;">Russ was asleep when Meadow died, and he took an aspiration hit. Thankfully he's permaplat so it doesn't matter.</span><span style="font-size: 100%;"><br />
<br />
</span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 100%;"><a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%208/?action=view&current=ScreenShot084.jpg" title="ScreenShot084.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%208/ScreenShot084.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
</span></div><span style="font-size: 100%; line-height: 115%;">Russ inherited the home business. Ackerley was Meadow's favorite child, while Beverly didn't even get a mention. Well, it's harder to keep relationships high when they don't live in the same house, and I'll admit that all the stupid "chat with" wants that only give 100 aspiration points usually go unfulfilled. Fulton and Garridan tied for Meadow's inheritance money.</span><span style="font-size: 100%;"><br />
<br />

<br />
</span><span style="font-size: 100%; line-height: 115%;">So the problem with Sandy Bruty was that I was trying to have her date the wrong brother. She and Fulton have much more in common, especially since he's a romance sim.</span><span style="font-size: 100%;"><br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%208/?action=view&current=ScreenShot087.jpg" title="ScreenShot087.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%208/ScreenShot087.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
</span><span style="font-size: 100%; line-height: 115%;">Speaking of romance sims, I like how they are able to simultaneously attract and repel other sims. Brandi Broke is swooning and gagging over Fulton at the same time.</span><span style="font-size: 100%;"><br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%208/?action=view&current=ScreenShot088.jpg" title="ScreenShot088.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%208/ScreenShot088.jpg" /></a><br />

<br />
</span><span style="font-size: 100%; line-height: 115%;">And now the time has come for Russ to join Meadow. He was a really good sim. He was a great husband and father and really easy to please. He was wonderful to Meadow, and was always the one who wanted to teach his children. He achieved permaplat status by reaching his golden anniversary. Plus, he stood his ground instead of crying when other sims tried to push him around. I will miss him.</span><span style="font-size: 100%;"><br />
<br />

<br />
</span><span style="font-size: 100%; line-height: 115%;">Ackerley inherited the home business, but then he is Russ and Meadow's only child living at home. Russ was closer to his daughter Beverly than Meadow was. Fulton and Garridan received an equal amount of inheritance from Russ, too, making this heir decision harder.</span><span style="font-size: 100%;"><br />
<br />

They will never be facing the right way again unless I keep </span><span style="font-size: 100%; line-height: 115%;">turning them that way. :P What's up with that?</span><span style="font-size: 100%;"><br />

<br />
</span><span style="font-size: 100%; line-height: 115%;">Here is the one day I let Ackerley ride in the helicopter. I'm sure he's disappointed that I make him take a car the rest of the time. As a vain sim, I'm sure he enjoys the attention the helicopter gives him, but I can't stand listening to it and watching sims be distracted with their hands over their ears.</span><span style="font-size: 100%;"><br />
<br />

<br />
</span><span style="font-size: 100%; line-height: 115%;">And here is a picture of Rose coming back from work as a tree-hugger. What does she do for 24 hours (in that skimpy outfit no less) that saves the earth and makes her so happy, yet stinky? Maybe I don't really want to know.<br />
</span><span style="font-size: 100%;"><br />

</span><span style="line-height: 115%;">Speaking of Rose, the SentryBot went haywire and tried to kill everyone starting with her.</span><span style="font-size: 100%;"><br />

<br />
</span><span style="line-height: 115%;">I think it also hurt Garridan pretty badly, although I didn’t actually see it happen. I sent him to fix it, and the next thing I knew he was lying on the bathroom floor with an orange plumbbob. Thankfully, he was was okay after some food and rest.</span><span style="font-size: 100%;"><br />

<br />
</span><span style="line-height: 115%;">Yes, Garridan thinks Carmen Patch is hot. No, I promise I didn't let him blow bubbles during Uni. He got a 4.0 and used the college clock to finish ahead of schedule. Maybe the SentryBot fried his brain, or maybe he just needs an eye exam.</span><span style="font-size: 100%;"><br />

Carmen finds his jokes hilarious. It would seem a perfect match...<o:p></o:p> <span style="line-height: 115%;">But, alas, it is not meant to be. His heart belongs to another: </span><span style="font-size: 100%;"><br />

</span><span style="line-height: 115%;">Meadow, maybe you can shed some light on this heir situation. Do you have a choice for heir?<br />
<br />
She didn't say anything or give me any kind of sign. I guess she is as undecided as I am. Dangit.<br />
<br />
It seems that the sentiments are split fairly evenly from what I can tell. I do have a favorite, but I'm not telling who. I thought about doing a poll, but I really don't feel like waiting around for a week or so to get the results. I know myself, and I have a very short attention span. A poll would throw off my groove. I would then go start a different project, and the UGG Legacy would be no more. As it is, I am making myself not go off and play anything else until I see this Legacy through. So anyway...</span><span style="font-size: 100%;"><br />

So tune in next time to see the spawn of two of the ugliest sims. Maybe things will eventually be resolved and there will be an official heir. Or maybe not.<br />

Have I mentioned how much I love the SentryBot? Gosh, I love it! I bought several tempting gnomes just so I could watch the constant zapping.<br />

<br />
Fulton reached his teens, and I must say I am impressed, or at least I was impressed until he did this to me:<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%207/?action=view&current=ScreenShot062.jpg" title="ScreenShot062.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%207/ScreenShot062.jpg" /></a></div><br />
He rolled the Pleasure aspiration. I hate trying to keep Pleasure sims happy. They're always wanting to do something pointless and/or stupid for 500 aspiration points.<br />
<br />

<br />
Meadow's face is frozen in that horrible expression again with her tooth coming through her cheek. I think it must be a frozen look of horror at the sight of her youngest grandchild. Hooray, he's grotesque!<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%207/?action=view&current=ScreenShot064.jpg" title="ScreenShot064.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%207/ScreenShot064.jpg" /></a></div><br />
At least Garridan is a Fortune sim, which is a good aspiration. It ties with Knowledge as my favorite aspiration to play because it's usually not too tedious to earn aspiration points.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%207/?action=view&current=snapshot_943a8518_9440d5b2.jpg" title="snapshot_943a8518_9440d5b2.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%207/snapshot_943a8518_9440d5b2.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
I wasted no time getting them to Uni, as they had enough scholarship money to pay their fair share of the rent. Fulton and Garridan moved into a rental house with their brother Evers and their sister Darcie. As you can see, the young adult stage is even uglier than the teen stage. Hooray again!<br />
<br />
Evers actually looks really decent again when you put him next to his little brothers.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%207/?action=view&current=snapshot_943a8518_d440d5d8.jpg" title="snapshot_943a8518_d440d5d8.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%207/snapshot_943a8518_d440d5d8.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Here is a better, er closer view of Fulton so you can really see the damage. I'm so pleased with how both the twins turned out. Fulton definitely gives Gage Uglacy a run for his money. They could be brothers.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%207/?action=view&current=ScreenShot069.jpg" title="ScreenShot069.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%207/ScreenShot069.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
The twins are not only the ugliest so far, but they're the meanest. They're always hurting each other playing "punch me-punch you" and when playing catch. I am <span style="font-style: italic;">loving</span> Garridan's look in this picture.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%207/?action=view&current=ScreenShot066.jpg" title="ScreenShot066.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%207/ScreenShot066.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
The Gen. 3 Thayer family invited over Uncle Chesley who is the placeholder at the UGG Greek house so that they can ask him to join. Evers was friends with Uncle Chesley and was invited to join right away. Evers invited the others over to the Greek house and asked them to pledge, and then he just kept inviting them back until they could be moved in.<br />
<br />

<br />
The twins' big sister Darcie isn't pretty, but she hasn't begun to approach the degree of ugly that her twin brothers did. However, this guy is one I can keep in mind if I get a female heir.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%207/?action=view&current=ScreenShot070.jpg" title="ScreenShot070.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%207/ScreenShot070.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Darcie fell in love with Skylar. For now Darcie and Evers will be joint placeholders for the Greek house, but eventually I may let her marry Skylar.<br />
<br />

<br />
Fulton broke the computer and got a lecture from his perfectionist big brother Evers.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%207/?action=view&current=ScreenShot052.jpg" title="ScreenShot052.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%207/ScreenShot052.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Since it broke at night and they needed the computer for term papers, I had Fulton fix it. He does have a few mechanical points. He was successful, but I can't say whether it was because the llama dude was cheering him on or in spite of it.<br />
<br />

<br />
Another regular visitor was Bubble Tester Dude. He came by once to test the quality of their bubbles. He only visited once, but I'm pretty sure he never left, and was still there after the twins graduated. I'm sure he'll still be there when their children go to University providing his valuable service in quality testing. It isn't like it matters that much anyway, since my sims aren't allowed to blow bubbles unless it gives them aspiration points or they sneak away to the bubble blower. I only keep the stupid thing so they'll stop clogging their wants panel with "buy a bubble blower."<br />

<br />
Looking for Godzilla?<br />
<br />
Garridan just likes to make this face. He doesn't have to have a reason.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%207/?action=view&current=ScreenShot002.jpg" title="ScreenShot002.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%207/ScreenShot002.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Poor Garridan fell victim to all the free pizza at the Greek house. Now he'll have to work out.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%207/?action=view&current=ScreenShot030.jpg" title="ScreenShot030.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%207/ScreenShot030.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Our former placeholder Uncle Chesley was finally allowed to graduate. He has a large nose, but other than that he had too much Meadow in him to have competed with his brother Ackerley who ended up being Gen. 2 heir.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%207/?action=view&current=ScreenShot032.jpg" title="ScreenShot032.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%207/ScreenShot032.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Chesley had the laid-back island attitude about life. Life is a pajama party for him, as that's what he wore to most Uni activities when he wasn't wearing his Hawaiian headband and bowling shirt. I think this is the first time I've seen a sim go home in pajamas. He's going to move in with his sister Beverly.<br />
<br />

<br />
Of all sims, Fulton got Heather Huffington for a date, and they actually had chemistry. It's mind-boggling.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%207/?action=view&current=ScreenShot011.jpg" title="ScreenShot011.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%207/ScreenShot011.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
On their second date, he got his first kiss from her. What is she thinking?<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%207/?action=view&current=ScreenShot001.jpg" title="ScreenShot001.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%207/ScreenShot001.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">At the end of Fulton's sophomore year I decided to re-roll his aspiration, and he got Romance. To me, that is just as bad as Pleasure, but it does make him even more like Gage. I guess Gage must be his role model.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%207/?action=view&current=ScreenShot013.jpg" title="ScreenShot013.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%207/ScreenShot013.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Of course Heather has no hope of joining the Legacy for more reasons than I care to list, even if she did have money.</div></div><br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%207/?action=view&current=ScreenShot017.jpg" title="ScreenShot017.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%207/ScreenShot017.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
This has to be one of my favorite pictures so far in this Legacy. I did edit the picture from a large screenshot, but I promise that is what she said and the look she made when Fulton asked her about her skills.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%207/?action=view&current=ScreenShot018.jpg" title="ScreenShot018.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%207/ScreenShot018.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Fulton doesn't care one iota about her money or her skills, and he figures there's at least one more thing that she's good at besides kissing.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%207/?action=view&current=ScreenShot023.jpg" title="ScreenShot023.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%207/ScreenShot023.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
And he really wants to take things to the next level. Oh, but too bad for him. I'm not inclined to let him have his way with her. I know, I'm so mean.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%207/?action=view&current=6-3.jpg" title="6-3.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%207/6-3.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
For $5000, Garridan was able to get a blind date with a Twikki Islander named Carla Reamon.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%207/?action=view&current=ScreenShot071.jpg" title="ScreenShot071.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%207/ScreenShot071.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
She looks as if she may meet the qualifications. (ugly) They had good chemistry and a good date. Sadly, when she was invited to come as a houseguest to visit, my game was on triple speed and she didn't get greeted.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%207/?action=view&current=ScreenShot078.jpg" title="ScreenShot078.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%207/ScreenShot078.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
I tried to make it up to Garridan by having him invite over Sandy Bruty. He had a 90 daily relationship with her, but it still wasn't enough for her. It's a good thing he didn't ask her on a date.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%207/?action=view&current=ScreenShot075.jpg" title="ScreenShot075.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%207/ScreenShot075.jpg" /></a><br />

That's right, he is finished at University.<br />
<br />

<br />
And here is Garridan, also graduated and ready to go home. Evers and Darcie will stay at the Greek house until the next generation arrives.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%207/?action=view&current=ScreenShot077.jpg" title="ScreenShot077.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%207/ScreenShot077.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
And here they are back home. I'm not really sure what Garridan's deal is with the kimono, but whatever. He can wear what he wants.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%207/?action=view&current=ScreenShot079.jpg" title="ScreenShot079.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%207/ScreenShot079.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
One of the first things they do is set fire to the kitchen, but they're more concerned about countertop space at the moment.<br />
<br />
And so do you think I'm any closer to making a decision about the heir? I will have to decide sometime, won't I? Tune in next time to see what my solution will be.<br />

<br />
I really like the astronaut uniform, although I only got to see it for one day this time. Ackerley got promoted to General on his second day in the military. To celebrate, I've decided to have the family go on a vacation.<br />
<br />
Ahh, who am I kidding? I want to let Meadow and Russ have a little more time together before they die.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%206/snapshot_7437364a_b43fa3cd.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
The twins finished their homework right after school so they wouldn't have to worry about it when they got home from vacation. Now they're making up for their loss of fun. Wow, look at those faces! I am loving these two. I have a feeling it will be very hard to choose an heir this generation.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<br />
<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%206/ScreenShot034.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Meadow is packed and ready to go to Three Lakes. She's been waiting her whole life for this kind of experience. She and Russ were dirt poor when they got married, and they have been busy working and raising children and granchildren ever since.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%206/ScreenShot035.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Rose got home just as the rest of the family were leaving. I was concerned the she would be left behind and miss out on the vacation.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%206/ScreenShot036.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
On a positive note, Rose is now an Ecological Guru which also fulfilled her Lifetime Want of Earning $100,000.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%206/ScreenShot037.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Rose did get left behind on the home lot, as she had no option of getting into the shuttle. Fortunately, she somehow caught up with them at Three Lakes where the family owns this cabin called Villa di Simoleon. It was a nice cabin, but it did need some work when they first arrived. It was smaller than they thought it would be, but the twins were perfectly fine sleeping in beds the living room.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%206/ScreenShot038.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
The first thing Meadow did was head straight for the hammock and stayed there.<br />
<br />
Seeing Meadow with one eye shut reminded me of a little rhyme I learned as a kid:<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-style: italic;">"Birdie, birdie in the sky</span><br />
<span style="font-style: italic;">Why'd you do that in my eye?</span><br />
<span style="font-style: italic;">I'm a big girl I don't cry.</span><br />
<span style="font-style: italic;">Aren't you glad that cows don't fly?"</span></div><br />
Although I doubt Meadow got hit in the eye by anything like that or I don't think she'd be smiling right now.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%206/snapshot_7437364a_743fa863.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
She wouldn't get out of the hammock until I made her. I wondered why everyone else was just lined up waiting to walk to Lumber Mill Range. They were all waiting for her to get out of the hammock. I guess they didn't want her to get lost.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%206/ScreenShot039.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Of course it had to rain a lot at Three Lakes. What's a vacation without a lot of rain?<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%206/6-1.jpg" /></a></div><br />
The Thayers had a positive attitude despite the rain, although I have no idea what Garridan is unwinding from.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%206/ScreenShot040.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Log-rolling and slap dancing at any time are not what I would consider fun, but it's also raining. Even though it's crazy, sims just can't get enough of these activities at Three Lakes.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%206/snapshot_7437364a_f44030e6.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Home cooking at the cabin is cheaper and definitely more satisfying. Thank goodness they invested in their own vacation home instead of staying in a hotel or camping.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%206/ScreenShot046.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Rose shares her "fragrance" with Fulton by cutting the cheese across the table while he's eating. Classy.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%206/ScreenShot044.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Lightning started this fire, but according to firefighter Mitch Lawson, they should be more careful next time. I can't think of how they could be more careful unless they chopped down all the trees.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%206/snapshot_7437364a_34409893.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
The adults hired a Nanny to watch the twins while they went to Smooth Rock Spa, since there really wouldn't have been anything interesting for the kids to do there. They all learned Deep Tissue Massage and got in the hot springs.<br />
<br />
Taylor looks grateful that the client is face down for the massage.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%206/snapshot_7437364a_343faa89.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Ackereley never tires of admiring himself, even on vacation. I have no idea why he wore his General uniform on vacation. Maybe he was hoping to impress the locals. You, know I'll bet that's why he wanted to go into the military in the first place. After all, he is a Knowledge sim, so it really didn't make much sense at the time he rolled up the want. It's that he's a <span style="font-style: italic;">vain sim</span>, and he thinks the uniform makes him look especially good. An inordinate amount of his free time is spent gazing into his hand-held mirror. He carries it with him everywhere he goes.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%206/snapshot_7437364a_94409835.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Meadow and Russ decided to try out the sauna's romantic possibilities. I'm somewhat confused at how they managed public woohoo in there without apparently moving. I would think that when the fog cleared, they would at least be sitting next to each other. So much for cuddling.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%206/ScreenShot049.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Sadly, I overestimated Meadow's bladder capacity on one of their family outings. Hey, she should know to go before leaving the house. But I am sorry I didn't get her home faster. I don't think anyone else saw her, so her secret is safe with me... and the whole internet.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%206/ScreenShot041-1.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Oh yeah, I nearly forgot to mention the tour they took that ended in a swarm of angry bees chasing them. Apparently, I'm not very good at these vacation chance cards.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%206/ScreenShot048.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Ackerley found a map to a hidden burrow and went in search of Bigfoot. As a knowledge sim, he had a strong desire to see if the legends were true. As you can see, he found him and danced with him to make friends with him. Everyone else in the family was <span style="font-style: italic;">afraid</span> they might meet Bigfoot, so they didn't volunteer to come along on his quest. Knowledge sims never fear the unknown, but embrace it no matter how smelly and hairy it may be.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%206/snapshot_7437364a_d44035f8.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Too bad we can't breed Bigfoot into the UGG Legacy, but I suppose that would would make it even more disturbing.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%206/ScreenShot045.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Staying at Three Lakes was the closest thing to a honeymoon that Ackerley and Rose had experienced.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%206/7d4fbeaa.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
The family bought a few tents just for the experience of tent-camping, and for other recreational activities. I had no idea how little privacy they would have at their own vacation home. The Bobble-Head Girl girl came running up to the tent when Ackerley and Rose were in there "wrestling" and was very offended about the tent activities. I guess she must have been walking by, because I had never seen her before.<br />
<br />
Garridan told the girl not to worry because his parents were just wrestling and that he didn't think they were hurting each other. She just walked away in disgust after that. Garridan was curious, wondering which of his parents had won the match. He heard them wrestle at home on their bed sometimes, but when he asked them when he could try it they told him he would understand wrestling when he was a grown-up and changed the subject. He asked his grandpa Russ too, who just laughed at him and told him he would learn about wrestling when he hit puberty. He didn't know who this Puberty guy was, but he hoped he would teach him to wrestle someday because it sounded like fun.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%206/snapshot_7437364a_7440a61b.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Ackerley never tires of making lobster thermidor. I guess he doesn't concern himself with the cost, so it's a good thing that they can afford it or I'd have to start locking him out of the kitchen and leaving out Jello for him.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%206/ScreenShot050.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Almost before they (or I) knew it, they were home again. I wish I had taken more pictures of the vacation, but I think they had a good time. As you can see, Ackerley brought home a friend named Blair. I don't know if the rest of the family was as thrilled as he was, but there are advantages to having a Bigfoot live with you. They have all their skills and badges, so they can make quite a bit of money and are great as business employees. However, they may make up for that in the volume of food they consume.<br />
<br />
As you can see, Blair wants to be a Space Pirate. Well, why not? He's certainly got a look about him that is intimidating enough.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%206/snapshot_7437364a_5440b515.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Also, the people at work send gifts home with him every day. Maybe they are afraid and want to stay on his good side. I have read that Bigfoot can go nuts if he gets hungry or bored, although I have yet to see that happen personally.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%206/ScreenShot057.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Anyway, I make sure Blair gets plenty of long baths. He won't take them on his own. I look at it as an opportunity to distract him from eating for a few minutes.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%206/snapshot_7437364a_5440d175.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
I sense that Ackerley is not having fun. I think Meadow should slap him for looking at her that way. Meadow started a home business venue, and she is passing along a couple of connections perks to him. I cancel and restart the process frequently which seems to make the progress bar jump ahead faster.<br />
<br />
The point of the home business is not really money, although it is nice. The point is to earn all the connections perks. Once they know every sim in the whole neighborhood, they will have a much easier time finding future mates that meet the legacy "requirements." (as ugly as possible)<br />
<br />
<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%206/ScreenShot054.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
People are in the yard trying to decide whether or not they are willing to hang out at the Thayer house. It's the most popular hangout in all of Pleasantview now. People come from all over town to slap dance, steal gnomes and eat meals cooked by Bigfoot, not to mention complain about dirty plates and get zapped by the SentryBot. I have actually seen sims gain positive star points after getting zapped and before running off the lot. The whole Thayer-house experience sounds like a blast, doesn't it? Oh, and now the whole town does the chest pound gesture and can slap dance. :P<br />
<br />

<br />
Garridan is on his way off the lot to go steal back their gnomes. With the home business, it has become a full-time occupation to steal back gnomes, even with the SentryBot zapping them. Why do sims look so sinister when they're going to retrieve their own property? And why can't they leave the lot to steal <span style="font-style: italic;">other people's</span> gnomes? It seems only fair.<br />
<br />

<br />
Now <span style="font-style: italic;">this </span>was a trip. Ackerley started spying on Mortimer before dark. Mortimer has been here at the Thayer house the whole time, and I didn't notice myself until he just walked out of the garage. I can see why Ackerley is confused. That would explain why Mortimer hasn't run over and slapped him yet. So now I wonder what this means... Does Mortimer have an evil/less evil twin? Does he have a clone? <span style="font-weight: bold;">The truth is out there...</span><br />
<br />
Tune in next time to see what happens when Fulton and Garridan hit their teens/YA years. I don't think you will be disappointed.Twoflowerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18044164183399754449noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2438265161573630585.post-54760629868126998562007-11-10T00:15:00.000-08:002012-01-30T05:00:42.457-08:00Ch. 5: Who said twinzrcute?<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%205/snapshot_7437364a_b43a7aaa.jpg" /></a><br />

Seeing Marsha Bruenig always brings up feelings of dread in me. Sooner or later every simmer is doomed to countless calls from Marsha or some similar sim-stalker in their game who is determined to be BFFs with everyone. Fortunately, she has not yet met anyone in the Thayer family, but it is inevitable, isn't it? I think she's circling the block. I'm not looking forward to the day when one of the sim kids brings her home as a "friend" from school. I don't think I'm just going to tolerate her this time around. Most of the Thayer kids are Scorpios with 1 nice point, so I'm pretty sure they can make enemies with her if she gets annoying. Angry sim kids don't kick over the trash can, do they?<br />
<br />

<br />
Darcie thought about being ugly as a child, but she's not that bad-looking as a teen. A new hairstyle, some makeup, and a non-Bruty shirt would go a long way for her. Bummer.<br />
<br />

<br />
I went ahead and sent her to college right away, because the Legacy house is <span style="font-style: italic;">full</span>. I don't want any more babies this generation, but I need less sims to micromanage. She looks a little uglier as a YA than a teen, but I just won't really know who to choose as the heir until they all get to college and I can compare them. All the ugly traits tend to be subtler on sim females, although her mother Rose is an exception.<br />

<br />
Meadow will never outgrow her love of the Smustle. What a goofball.<br />
<br />

<br />
Glowing twins in matching jammies -- a cute coincidence. Cute, but I don't want to see cute anymore. Cute is for other sims. Bring on the ugly!<br />
<br />
<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%205/snapshot_7437364a_f43a89b1.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Fulton is developing some real UGG-potential in the nose/mouth region. Way to uglify, kid!<br />
<br />
<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%205/snapshot_7437364a_b43a8a19.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Garridan looks similarly blessed/cursed. Good job, Garridan. *hides*<br />
<br />

<br />
Besides being ugly, these twins have something else in common...<br />
<br />
<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%205/snapshot_7437364a_143ad30b.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
They <span style="font-style: italic;">absolutely love</span> jumping on beds. I have never seen sim kids jump on beds as much as these two do. Since Seasons is out, I have to constantly occupy them with other stuff to do so they don't overheat and burst into flames. I know they can't, it's just that I would prefer they burned to death than get taken by the Social Worker. At least they could be resurrected if they burst into flames. As soon as I am not paying attention to them and they get a moment of free time, I hear their hysterical laughing and "ka-thunk, ka-thunk, ka-thunk..."<br />
<br />
<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%205/snapshot_7437364a_343ad4d8.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
It's never to soon to start thinking about future ugly spouses. Sandy Bruty is always a popular Uglacy choice. Garridan doesn't agree, but what does he know -- he's only 7 years old. That and he's bounced so much that I'm sure he and his brother have brain damage.<br />
<br />

<br />
Weekends were made for the Smustle at the Thayer house. They invite friends and family over, and it seems like all they do is eat and Smustle. Once it starts, it goes on for hours. It makes for some really green-funky guests.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%205/a0f9f08d.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Does there seem to be something amiss in this picture? I'm curious to know what you think. Keep in mind I have no CC, and I have not ever played with the Ottomans.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%205/snapshot_7437364a_d43adcbc.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
I decided it was time for Meadow to enjoy her last days without having to work. Actually, I just want to let her go "free range" so <span style="font-style: italic;">I</span> can enjoy her last days. I get tired of micromanaging sims so that they can be ready for work every day. Even taking her numerous vacation days seems to be too much to think about. It's just too hard to cancel out that carpool. ;)<br />
<br />

<br />
Ackerley is still looking for future UGG spouses for his boys. He called the exterminator, even though they had no bugs, to meet Carmen Patch who kinda looks like one. He thinks she's really hot, LOL. She does look an <span style="font-style: italic;">awful</span> lot like she could be Rose's twin sister.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%205/snapshot_7437364a_743ade94.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
I let Meadow have a couple of sips of elixir so she and Russ can be the same age again. He gained about 6 days from his Greek house glitch. Honestly, I just wasn't ready to let her go yet. I never liked her as a teen townie. She has been a real aspiration-killer in the past for some of my sims. (turning down stuff like first kisses, going steady and pledging to a Greek house) But she has made up for it by being a really fun founder. She's a little ditsy, but has a good personality. I have come to like her quite a bit.<br />
<br />

<br />
I let Russ retire as well. Of course, this means that he and Meadow will hang all over each other for their remaining days -- that is when they're not Smustling, peeing or napping.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%205/snapshot_7437364a_343ae1d4.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">Fulton got fat, so I had him work out. It reminds me of the motto, "I may be FAT, but you're UGLY...and I can DIET!" In his case, he's also ugly. The poor kid may as well not be ugly <span style="font-style: italic;">and</span> fat.</div><br />

<br />
I'm just making sure Darcie has a chance to meet Beverly's Economics professor. I played Beverly's house long enough to invite them both over and introduce them, just in case Darcie is the heiress.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%205/snapshot_7437364a_143afb4d.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
I thought this was cute with them all synchronized and heading out to the bus in their school uniforms.<br />
<br />

<br />
I have no hope for you to be ugly, kid. Just grow up already and get out.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%205/snapshot_7437364a_543afdf2.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Evers is still not bad-looking , especially standing next to his parents.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%205/snapshot_943a8518_143aff03.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Evers' genetics<span style="font-style: italic;"> finally</span> caught up with him. He's not exactly UGG-ugly, but he's definitely not a cutie anymore either.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%205/snapshot_7437364a_743b2b76.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Fulton's workouts finally paid off. Now he can go back to being just plain ugly.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%205/snapshot_7437364a_943b2e1c.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Ackerley rolled up a want to go into the military, so I decided to let him since Meadow and Russ have both retired. Because of his 4.0 in college and his maxed skills, he was able to start as a Commander, and was promoted his first day to Astronaut.<br />
<br />

In the next update the Thayers take a vacation to their cabin, Villa di Simoleon, at Three Lakes. Maybe they will meet some ugly locals and vacationers.Twoflowerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18044164183399754449noreply@blogger.com11tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2438265161573630585.post-23438484763165812062007-11-07T21:17:00.000-08:002012-01-30T04:59:58.395-08:00Ch. 4: A Rose By Any Other Name...<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_b439a019.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_b439a019.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/snapshot_7437364a_b439a019.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
A Rose by any other name... would make more sense, as roses are supposed to be pretty, and this one definitely isn't. As you can see, Ackerley is the Generation 2 heir (a big surprise I'm sure, as I really built up a lot of doubt in that last chapter), and he has kissed and made up with Rose. Rose has moved in with $3000.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />

<br />
Beverly has moved back home temporarily, and I figured why not make her happy even though I'm bitterly disappointed in her for not being ugly. The matchmaker Madame Fuchs got her full $5000 this time, so she set Beverly up with Phoenix. They have two bolts, so there is no need to look further.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_5439a3ab.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_5439a3ab.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/snapshot_7437364a_5439a3ab.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
It didn't take long to for Ackerley to propose to Rose. Beauty is definitely in the eye of the beholder. They have two bolts for each other.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_d439a4e1.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_d439a4e1.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/snapshot_7437364a_d439a4e1.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Rose did not get along well with her future sister-in-law, but Beverly was going to move out soon, so I didn't even try to make them get along.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_d439a6c1.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_d439a6c1.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/snapshot_7437364a_d439a6c1.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Ackerley and Rose took a little, ahem, purple hearts spin in the car and heard the sound of a lullaby. I doubt it was the radio.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_b439adb5.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_b439adb5.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/snapshot_7437364a_b439adb5.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Love was definitely getting nauseatingly thick in the air with another engagement between Beverly and Phoenix.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_1439ae06.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_1439ae06.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/snapshot_7437364a_1439ae06.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
I just plopped a wedding arch on the front lawn and got started on weddings. Only 3 sims attended the wedding of Beverly and Phoenix, although I guess I won't count Laura since she was only there on one of her scheduled rounds to kick over the trash can.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_f439ae2b.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_f439ae2b.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/snapshot_7437364a_f439ae2b.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Phoenix said he was this rich: $$$, but he was not a rich sim according to the game. I think he only had $7000, so he must be either delusional or a liar. He certainly got the benefit of marrying Beverly, though, as she actually is a rich sim.<br />
<br />
Shortly thereafter, they moved out and bought the house behind Don Lothario.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_7439afda.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_7439afda.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/snapshot_7437364a_7439afda.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Ackerley and Rose had no guests at their ceremony, but I guess I can see why. Weddings are supposed to be beautiful.<br />
<br />

<br />
I am regretting all the cooking skill points I allowed Ackerley to acquire.<br />
<br />

Because he loves to cook Lobster Thermidor, but he burns it more often than not. Of course, I don't ever try to stop him from eating his burnt lobster no matter how much he gags on it.<br />

<br />
I can't wait to see what kind of genetic mutations we get to see in Generation 3.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_1439bd4b.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_1439bd4b.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/snapshot_7437364a_1439bd4b.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
For some weird reason, Rose feels the need to change into this hairstyle when pregnant. I didn't set it up that way, and it doesn't show up in her portrait that way either. She goes back to the ponytail when she gives birth. She does look a little less ape-like with shorter hair. I could change to this style for her permanently, but ugliness is the goal. Why try to detract from the perfection that is Rose?<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_1439be68-1.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_1439be68-1.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/snapshot_7437364a_1439be68-1.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
The firstborn of Gen. 3 is a baby girl named Darcie. Darcie means "from the stronghold or dark one." Well, Rose is a dark one, sorta. Darcie doesn't even want to look at her mother in case the ugly is contagious.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_b439f67b-1.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_b439f67b-1.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/snapshot_7437364a_b439f67b-1.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
As a toddler, Darcie looks like a little boy with her haircut. She avoids eye contact with her father, too. She seems to be the only sim so far who realizes this is an Uglacy. Ackerley carries on the tradition of his father by teaching most of the toddler skills to his children.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_5439fc7f-1.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_5439fc7f-1.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/snapshot_7437364a_5439fc7f-1.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Nanny Calista has been with the family since Ackerley was born. She and Russ don't get along at all. They <span style="font-style: italic;">hate</span> each other.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_9439fc8a-2.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_9439fc8a-2.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/snapshot_7437364a_9439fc8a-2.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Every time she comes to the house they poke, slap and shove each other. All they need is Curly, and they could be the Three Stooges. Thankfully, Russ isn't very nice and doesn't feel the need go weep like a little girl when the nanny pokes him. When I get tired of the daily drama, I send Russ to take a nap.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_d439ff1e-1.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_d439ff1e-1.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/snapshot_7437364a_d439ff1e-1.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Time for another (hopefully ugly) baby.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_5439ff75-1.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_5439ff75-1.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/snapshot_7437364a_5439ff75-1.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
This is a baby boy named Evers. Evers means "wild boar." Let's hope he lives up to his name. Please be ugly, kiddo.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_543a04dd-1.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_543a04dd-1.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/snapshot_7437364a_543a04dd-1.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Darcie has more UGG-potential than her Aunt Beverly did, but time will tell.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_143a076d-1.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_143a076d-1.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/snapshot_7437364a_143a076d-1.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
She also got the family clean genes. She is a Scorpio (10-6-10-3-5)<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_d43a1032-1.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_d43a1032-1.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/snapshot_7437364a_d43a1032-1.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Come on, kid. You can do it!<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_543a1053-1.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_543a1053-1.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/snapshot_7437364a_543a1053-1.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Evers looks nothing like a wild boar yet, although his mother still does. He's also a Scorpio (9-8-9-3-1).<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_d43a143d-1.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_d43a143d-1.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/snapshot_7437364a_d43a143d-1.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Ackerley teaches Evers to talk while Rose realizes she is pregnant again.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_b43a1a2e-1.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_b43a1a2e-1.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/snapshot_7437364a_b43a1a2e-1.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Ackerley achieved his LTW to become a Media Magnate. Did you wonder what in the heck a media magnate is? I did. I looked up magnate in the dictionary and got this definition: <span style="font-weight: bold;">magnate</span><span class="sense_content"><b style="font-weight: bold;">:</b><span style="font-weight: bold;"> a person of rank, power, influence, or distinction often in a specified area</span>. </span>I also spent a few seconds on Google, and the only names I recognized were Oprah and Ted Turner. That's where my curiosity ran out.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_143a1c6b-1.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_143a1c6b-1.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/snapshot_7437364a_143a1c6b-1.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Rose goes into labor while Russ shows his concern for her pain by concentrating on his cheesecake.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_743a1c98.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_743a1c98.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/snapshot_7437364a_743a1c98.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
This baby boy is named Fulton. Fulton means "from a field." It seemed close enough to "meadow" to me, and she is the grandmother.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_143a1cea.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_143a1cea.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/snapshot_7437364a_143a1cea.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
And his cheesecake twin is named Garridan. Garridan means "you hid." I hope the ugliness will make someone want to hide. I know it's a big stretch, but work with me.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_b43a4229.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_b43a4229.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/snapshot_7437364a_b43a4229.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
I know what this may look like, but I assure you that Beverly is not mean enough to be doing the joy buzzer prank on Darcie, she's just meeting her niece for the first time. They get along quite well.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_543a72b8.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_543a72b8.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/snapshot_7437364a_543a72b8.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Stinkin' cute toddler Evers grows up.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_543a72da.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_543a72da.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/snapshot_7437364a_543a72da.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Into a stinkin' cute, un-boarlike child in pink jammies. Stupid Evers.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_343a7372.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_343a7372.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/snapshot_7437364a_343a7372.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Fulton is less cute, and hopefully won't outgrow it. He is a Scorpio (9-7-9-8-1).<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_f43a73e1.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_f43a73e1.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/snapshot_7437364a_f43a73e1.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Garridan is also odd-looking, but I'm not ready to hide from him yet. Garridan is yet another Scorpio (8-7-8-7-1). That means that every one of the 3rd Generation kids are Scorpios like Ackerley.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/?action=view&current=ScreenShot020.jpg" title="ScreenShot020.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/ScreenShot020.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Acklerley got this chance card.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/?action=view&current=ScreenShot006.jpg" title="ScreenShot006.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/ScreenShot006.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
And I can never make myself choose Ignore, so...<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_143a79b5.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_143a79b5.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%204/snapshot_7437364a_143a79b5.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Poor Ackerley looks sad after the loss of his job as a Media Magnate (whatever the heck that is, it's still unclear to me). I don't really care that he got fired because he is already permaplat, and if he stays home full-time I can get rid of Nanny Calista for awhile.<br />
<br />
And so here I will leave you... until next time, folk(s). I may be a bit presumptuous in assuming I have more than one reader. You can insert your own clever cliff-hanger here:Twoflowerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18044164183399754449noreply@blogger.com9tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2438265161573630585.post-85593526875863969182007-11-07T13:15:00.000-08:002012-01-30T04:59:24.284-08:00Ch. 3 Gen. 2 Teens and College<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_14390786.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_14390786.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/snapshot_7437364a_14390786.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Once I was able to pry Ackerley out of the picture, I was able to see that Beverly is still not UGG-worthy as a teen. She has a bit of a large nose and an odd chin, but is a normal decent-looking teen.<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/?action=view&current=ScreenShot010.jpg" title="ScreenShot010.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/ScreenShot010.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
She rolled the Fortune aspiration with a Lifetime Want of Earning $100,000. Her turn-ons are blond hair and high body skills, and her turn-off is brown hair.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_f4391328.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_f4391328.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/snapshot_7437364a_f4391328.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Chesley got the pink jammies. He fits right in in the pink house, and matches the nursery. As you can see, Russ still enjoys teaching toddler skills.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_f43915fa.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_f43915fa.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/snapshot_7437364a_f43915fa.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
This was a surprise, as it always is. I was glad Beverly was able to get the Extraterrestrial Reparations Grant. It looks like Meadow was concerned that the aliens would do violence toward her daughter. I know it's a bad pun, but it's one my husband is fond of using when referring to movies with too much "violins."<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_f43916d2.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_f43916d2.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/snapshot_7437364a_f43916d2.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
I always think it's strange that Knowledge sims react negatively this way to abduction since they always want it to happen again. Maybe it's a sort of roller coaster experience for them. You're dying to get off the thing, but as soon as you do, you want to get back on.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_d439205c.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_d439205c.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/snapshot_7437364a_d439205c.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Interesting conversation topic, and Russ seems to be glad to reminisce with her about their first woo-hoo.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_b4392085.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_b4392085.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/snapshot_7437364a_b4392085.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
And now it's time for Russ to become an elder, While Meadow does a mind-meld on Chesley.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_143920a1.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_143920a1.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/snapshot_7437364a_143920a1.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Russ doesn't improve that much with age as far as his looks go.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_54392103.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_54392103.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/snapshot_7437364a_54392103.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Russ seems a bit depressed to be over the hill, and not even the sight of a sparkly, levitating toddler can snap him out of his funk.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_1439210e.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_1439210e.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/snapshot_7437364a_1439210e.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Chesley, stop being cute, darnit. You'll never be UGG-worthy, will you?<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/?action=view&current=snapshot_74392444_3439245d.jpg" title="snapshot_74392444_3439245d.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/snapshot_74392444_3439245d.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Here are Beverly and Ackerley at University. Beverly is still a failure when it comes to the UGG Legacy. I would be really depressed by her if Ackerley didn't get uglier with each transition.<br />
<br />
Since they had plenty of scholarship money, I had them rent 80 Crumplebottom Drive and turn it into a Greek house. I let them choose the majors they rolled a want for, so Beverley became an Economics major, while Ackerley became a Mathematics major.<br />
<br />

<br />
Ackerley loves to primp just like his father Russ. It's so funny to watch him.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/?action=view&current=snapshot_74392444_9439261a.jpg" title="snapshot_74392444_9439261a.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/snapshot_74392444_9439261a.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Ackerley met an interesting friend his first day of college. Usually the streaker takes off quickly, but this one hung around a long time. It was somewhat disturbing.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/?action=view&current=snapshot_74392444_f4392658.jpg" title="snapshot_74392444_f4392658.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/snapshot_74392444_f4392658.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
He even liked playing kicky ball in the buff. Yikes.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/?action=view&current=snapshot_74392444_34392bbb.jpg" title="snapshot_74392444_34392bbb.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/snapshot_74392444_34392bbb.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Ackerley used the college directory to meet a couple of girls I thought were the most UGG-worthy and become friends with them. He invited Laura and Rose over to see if he had chemistry with either of them.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/?action=view&current=snapshot_74392444_94392c47.jpg" title="snapshot_74392444_94392c47.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/snapshot_74392444_94392c47.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
After checking out both girls, he realized he had two bolts for Rose and asked her on a date.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/?action=view&current=snapshot_74392444_d4392c99.jpg" title="snapshot_74392444_d4392c99.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/snapshot_74392444_d4392c99.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
That instantly angered Laura who felt she had been cheated on, although I have no idea why since I was completely unaware of any crush between them. Now he had a really bad date with Rose and both girls were mad at him.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_9439ba7d.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_9439ba7d.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/snapshot_7437364a_9439ba7d.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Rose sent him this lovely card in the mail. She is even scarier-looking when she's angry. Laura just decided to kick over his trash, over and over again. Given a choice, I think I prefer the card actually.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_74393a99.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_74393a99.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/snapshot_7437364a_74393a99.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Back at the main house...</span><br />
<br />
Meadow finally filled up her empty head and reached her LTW of becoming Education Minister.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_34393af2.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_34393af2.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/snapshot_7437364a_34393af2.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
And became an elder the same evening. What a day! But wait, there's more.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_b4393b67.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_b4393b67.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/snapshot_7437364a_b4393b67.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
I then had Russ call to throw an anniversary party, and he was able to achieve his LTW of reaching his golden anniversary.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_d4393b7e.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_d4393b7e.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/snapshot_7437364a_d4393b7e.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
And then I realized that Meadow's second LTW was to reach her golden anniversary.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_34393c8d.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_34393c8d.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/snapshot_7437364a_34393c8d.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
It was a somewhat wild and disturbing party, as you can see, but it was an experiment to see if the same tactics work for anniversary party scores as they do for wedding parties. I suppose getting Meadow and Russ dressed again would have been a nice touch.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_14393cf9.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_14393cf9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/snapshot_7437364a_14393cf9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
But was quite easily a Roof Raiser.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_143993ba.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_143993ba.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/snapshot_7437364a_143993ba.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Teen Chesley is not as cute as he was as a kid, but is by no means ugly. In my disappointment, I forgot to take a screenshot of his aspiration and turn-ons. Oh well. Chesley rolled knowledge with the Lifetime Want of Maxing All Skills. His turn-ons are black hair and high charisma, and his turn-off is jewelry.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/?action=view&current=snapshot_74392444_b4399851.jpg" title="snapshot_74392444_b4399851.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/snapshot_74392444_b4399851.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
This was a weird glitch. Russ was visiting his kids at the UGG Greek house when he got too cold outside talking to his buddy the mailman, Pao. He came inside to the bathroom and aged himself back to adult, adding himself to the list of playable sims. It was weird. I had to age him back to adult with the age sims cheat and unselect him with the testing cheats, but he did leave and go back home. Unfortunately, he started all over again at 54 days old and will live forever. *sigh*<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/?action=view&current=snapshot_74392444_14399dab.jpg" title="snapshot_74392444_14399dab.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/snapshot_74392444_14399dab.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
So who will be the UGG Legacy heir? Will it be Ackerley?<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/?action=view&current=snapshot_74392444_74399dfd.jpg" title="snapshot_74392444_74399dfd.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/snapshot_74392444_74399dfd.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Or will it be Beverly? (as if)<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/?action=view&current=snapshot_743994ef_743994f0.jpg" title="snapshot_743994ef_743994f0.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%203/snapshot_743994ef_743994f0.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Or will it be Chesley, who grew up to be the Hawaiian bowling enthusiast? (yeah, right) He has placeholder written all over him. Do you really have any doubts who the heir will be? Tune in next time to confirm your suspicions.Twoflowerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18044164183399754449noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2438265161573630585.post-3517092790107702622007-11-06T08:20:00.000-08:002012-01-30T04:58:20.445-08:00Ch. 2: Spawn of Meadow<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_54375a26.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_54375a26.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/snapshot_7437364a_54375a26.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
I decided Meadow needed a little makeup to make her look older than 14. Without any custom content, this will have to do.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_74375cc7.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_74375cc7.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/snapshot_7437364a_74375cc7.jpg" /></a><br />

<br />
Russ does a lot of primping. Either he doesn't realize he's ugly, or he's very proud to be ugly. He's definitely proud to be Meadow's husband, because her reputation precedes her. She is definitely one of the hottest sims in the neighborhood, especially since the disappearancce of Bella Goth.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_94375e86.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_94375e86.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/snapshot_7437364a_94375e86.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Meadow got stuck with the ugly gray maternity shirt. Why couldn't they get choices like with other clothes? I don't really know what she's doing just sitting here. Contemplating the joys of motherhood? Getting in touch with her inner sim?<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_143760c6.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_143760c6.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/snapshot_7437364a_143760c6.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
I guess she may just be tired. I wonder how sims breathe in their food like that. I usually put a stereo in the dining room so they will wake up and finish eating.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_f437629c.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_f437629c.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/snapshot_7437364a_f437629c.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Look, she has rings like Saturn!<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_b437669e.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_b437669e.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/snapshot_7437364a_b437669e.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
And finally, she gives birth to a red-headed son. His name is Ackerley, which means "from the oak-tree meadow." Since it had the word "meadow" in it, I decided it would be a good name for him.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_f437cf86.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_f437cf86.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/snapshot_7437364a_f437cf86.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
What's wrong, Meadow? Even though she just gave birth, she is ready to have more babies.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_3437d51b.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_3437d51b.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/snapshot_7437364a_3437d51b.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Let's see if Ackerley looks like his dad...<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_1437d532.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_1437d532.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/snapshot_7437364a_1437d532.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
He's not too bad yet, but maybe he has UGG-potential. You never really know how sims will turn out.<br />
<br />
Ackerley is a Scorpio (9-8-9-3-1) with a very similar personality to his dad's, only he has just one nice point.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_d437d8c6.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_d437d8c6.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/snapshot_7437364a_d437d8c6.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Russ is a good dad, who always rolls up wants to teach his kids their toddler skills.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_f438be0d.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_f438be0d.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/snapshot_7437364a_f438be0d.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Awww... he's actually kind of cute. Let's see what childhood does to his face. Maybe it will explode. We can only hope.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_1438be58.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_1438be58.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/snapshot_7437364a_1438be58.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Hmmmm... not an explosion, but he's not as cute as he was, which is a good thing for the UGG Legacy.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_9438be97.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_9438be97.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/snapshot_7437364a_9438be97.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Right away he started zipping around the house, cleaning everything. I love it when sim kids do that. I have never seen that happen in real life, though. Maybe other people's kids love cleaning.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_5438cfce.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_5438cfce.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/snapshot_7437364a_5438cfce.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Ackerley and Chandler Platz do not get along at all. That's good, though. Now Chandler won't be calling him on the phone for the rest of his life.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_1438d413.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_1438d413.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/snapshot_7437364a_1438d413.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
I let Meadow have her wish for another baby. She chose the bathroom to gave birth, which is always such a great room for photos, right?<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_3438d450.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_3438d450.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/snapshot_7437364a_3438d450.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
And here we have baby Beverly, another redhead. Beverly means "beaver meadow." I wonder how many parents knew before naming their daughters that.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_f438d654.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_f438d654.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/snapshot_7437364a_f438d654.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Russ was in the living room for Beverly's birth having sympathetic labor pains.<br />
<br />

<br />
Let's see what happens to Beverly's face when Russ toddlerifies her...<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_3438de9a.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_3438de9a.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/snapshot_7437364a_3438de9a.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
She is kind of ugly. It's hard to say if it's the baldness or if she's just plain ugly. Time will tell.<br />
<br />
Beverly is an Aries (9-8-4-3-4).<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_b438e22f.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_b438e22f.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/snapshot_7437364a_b438e22f.jpg" /></a><br />
Ackerley grew up alone by the trash can. What a nice simmer I am. I just prefer to get it over with and not mess with cakes and parties.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_d438e24b.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_d438e24b.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/snapshot_7437364a_d438e24b.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
He's definitely getting quite a large mouth, so there is hope for ugliness.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/?action=view&current=ScreenShot007.jpg" title="ScreenShot007.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/ScreenShot007.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Ackerley rolled knowledge and has a Lifetime Want of becoming a Media Magnate. His is turned on by jewelry and athletic sims, and turned off by custom hair.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_1438e7a0.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_1438e7a0.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/snapshot_7437364a_1438e7a0.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Beverly decided to fall asleep with her head in the potty. I hope for her sake the bowl is empty.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_7438ea0d.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_7438ea0d.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/snapshot_7437364a_7438ea0d.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
And here is the moment of truth. I have high hopes that she will stay ugly.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_f438ea25.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_f438ea25.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/snapshot_7437364a_f438ea25.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Darn you, cuteness! My hopes have been cruelly dashed. Why can't she stay ugly?<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_f438ebe0.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_f438ebe0.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/snapshot_7437364a_f438ebe0.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Beverly does the same thing Ackerley did when she grows up. She also has the "scrubbing bubbles" and loves to clean.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_7438ee7d.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_7438ee7d.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/snapshot_7437364a_7438ee7d.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Ackerley brought Destry Wade home from school one day. Destry has some serious potential for a future UGG Legacy spouse! I will keep him in mind if we ever get an ugly girl.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_f438fcb7.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_f438fcb7.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/snapshot_7437364a_f438fcb7.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
And last but not least, another redheaded baby boy Chesley was born in the garage. He has Meadow's skin tone and eyes. Chesley means "camp meadow."<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_7438fe46.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_7438fe46.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/snapshot_7437364a_7438fe46.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Russ reached the top of the criminal career track, becoming a Criminal Mastermind. I could have given him a different job, but this one seemed so fitting since he started out as a burglar.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_1438ff3e.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_1438ff3e.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/snapshot_7437364a_1438ff3e.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
I forgot to take pictures of the progress building the house, but here it is in its finished state. It's very pink, but I assume that pink is Meadow's favorite color. Everything that can be should be pink.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_7438ffe9.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_7438ffe9.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/snapshot_7437364a_7438ffe9.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Russ is off to work in his, ahem, work uniform. If only real criminal masterminds wore that they would be so much easier for the police to spot.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_143902c1.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_143902c1.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/snapshot_7437364a_143902c1.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Ackerley is a chess cheater. I guess that's because of his one nice point. At least Meadow is bright enough to catch him some of the time.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_143906d7.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_143906d7.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/snapshot_7437364a_143906d7.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Time to grow up little Chesley...<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_143906ff.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_143906ff.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/snapshot_7437364a_143906ff.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
And he's cute too. *sobs* He definitely takes more after Meadow in his looks than the other two children. His personality is Aries (7-10-9-3-2).<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_d4390746.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_d4390746.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/snapshot_7437364a_d4390746.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Speaking of cuties, it's time for Beverly to become a teen.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_b4390753.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_b4390753.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/snapshot_7437364a_b4390753.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Of course, Ackerley chose that moment to hog the spotlight...<br />
<br />
<a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/?action=view&current=snapshot_7437364a_1439076f.jpg" title="snapshot_7437364a_1439076f.jpg"><img border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%202/snapshot_7437364a_1439076f.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
And he refused to move. Is this some passive-aggressive sim sibling rivalry? Is she still cute, or did her father's genetics finally explode her face? Tune in next time to see teen Beverly.<span id="flock-breadcrumb"><br />

I probably should have cloned Meadow instead of just growing her up. I did get rid of her skills, so as not to cheat too much. The only advantage she ended up with over a CAS sim was a few friends. She lost the pink UGG boots and grew up in this evening gown. Since she doesn't really look any older, maybe she thought it would help her seem more mature.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%201/snapshot_7437364a_b4373bab.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%201/snapshot_7437364a_b4373bab.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px;" /></a><br />
<br />
Her house is nothing to be excited about, but I just started her off in her future master bedroom with a few necessities. A two-story farmhouse is what it will eventually be.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%201/snapshot_7437364a_94373d02.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%201/snapshot_7437364a_94373d02.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px;" /></a><br />
<br />
Meadow seems surprised to discover that books contain helpful information. She must have been too busy dating Legacy teens when she was in school to notice. Now she has a great deal of catching up to do. Her Lifetime Want is to become Education Minister. It certainly is a lofty goal for such an empty head as hers, but she is a self-confident sim. She can accomplish anything she sets her mind to.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%201/snapshot_7437364a_94373e34.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%201/snapshot_7437364a_94373e34.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px;" /></a><br />
<br />
After a few minutes of study, however, it became clear that building skills is boring. Dating is much more fun, especially since she can now get married and have babies. Yes, Meadow is a family sim. Jill Fuchs is the local con artist known as the Matchmaker. I love to see her choices when you pay her the minimum amount. It's almost like a game, or maybe a gameshow. Let's see what Meadow gets for $10...<br />
<br />
<a href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%201/snapshot_7437364a_74373eb9-1.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%201/snapshot_7437364a_74373eb9-1.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px;" /></a><br />
<br />
Contestant #1 is Mr. Korey Jitmakusol, a private school headmaster. He's somewhat ugly, but I'm not sure if he is ugly enough for this challenge. But before I rule him out, let's see if there's any chemistry...<br />
<br />
<a href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%201/snapshot_7437364a_34373ef7.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%201/snapshot_7437364a_34373ef7.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px;" /></a><br />
<br />
Not only is there zero chemistry, but Mr. Jitmakusol demands to know why Meadow skipped school today and threatens her with detention. Yes, the Matchmaker sure knows how to work her magic. She just chooses not to for less than $5000.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%201/snapshot_7437364a_94374094.jpg" /></a><br />
<br />
Contestant #2 is Neil LeTourneau. There is no chemistry with Neil either, plus he is way too attractive. Also, I wonder if he is in any way related to Brandi LeTourneau. I hate Brandi. We must move on...<br />
<br />
<a href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%201/snapshot_7437364a_1437411f.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%201/snapshot_7437364a_1437411f.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px;" /></a><br />
<br />
Contestant #3 is Abhijeet Deppiesse, who also has no chemistry with Meadow and is not quite ugly enough. Well, that's all we have time for today, folks. No lovely, er <span style="font-style: italic;">ugly </span>parting gifts for Meadow this time. Tune in next time to see what new tricks the Matchmaker has up her puffed sleeves.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/snapshot_7437364a_d437434a.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/snapshot_7437364a_d437434a.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px;" /></a><br />
<br />
The next day Meadow took a job in the military in order to begin paying the bills. It isn't what she really wants to do, but it will pay pretty well until she can find a job in the education field.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%201/snapshot_7437364a_b43743d0.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%201/snapshot_7437364a_b43743d0.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px;" /></a><br />
<br />
In order to make more money in the military, she needs some body skill points. However, pink sweats are not the regulation PT uniform.<br />
<br />
You're out of uniform, Private Thayer! Now, drop and give me 20!<br />
<br />
<a href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%201/snapshot_7437364a_543745ce-1.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%201/snapshot_7437364a_543745ce-1.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px;" /></a><br />
<br />
After all that work and working out, it's time for some fun, and what could possibly be more fun than the Smustle? So what if if makes you look certifiably insane.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%201/snapshot_7437364a_543746f5.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%201/snapshot_7437364a_543746f5.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px;" /></a><br />
<br />
The matchmaker is back, which means that we now have...<br />
<br />
Contestant #4! Yes, it's Russ Bear, one of Pleasantview's most notorious criminals. I'm sure that Madame Fuchs thinks he is suitable punishment considering how little Meadow pays her for her matchmaking services.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%201/snapshot_7437364a_74374737-1.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%201/snapshot_7437364a_74374737-1.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px;" /></a><br />
<br />
But for whatever reason, Meadow finds Russ quite attractive. Since I doubt there is an uglier sim in all of Pleasantview or the surrounding area, she can have him. Russ is the perfect match for the UGG Legacy. Yay, Russ Bear!<br />
<br />
<a href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%201/snapshot_7437364a_5437489b.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%201/snapshot_7437364a_5437489b.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px;" /></a><br />
<br />
Awww... or Ewww..., you decide.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%201/snapshot_7437364a_143748a3.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/Ch%201/snapshot_7437364a_143748a3.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px;" /></a><br />
<br />
But wait, is Meadow already having second thoughts about Russ? Has she noticed that he is hideous?<br />
<br />

Nah, that's just her face frozen in "funky dance mode." That tooth stuck through her cheek is pretty scary -- it's the first time I've seen that glitch, and I hope it's the last time. It's going to get ugly enough in this Legacy without that.<br />

And so the whirlwind courtship begins: They kiss in the rain.. How romantic... *cough*<br />

<br />
While painful to watch, the face-sucking continued inside the house as well. It was their first date, a dream date no less, and they were in love. One thing led to another until it became inevitable...<br />

Instant Engagement...<br />

<br />
Instant Wedding...<br />

<br />
And look, they have wallpaper! Russ brought in a much-needed $8000, which helps to decorate and add on to the house.<br />
<br />
Oh, and also some instant woohoo.<br />

Soon there were spinning purple hearts and the sound of a lullaby. Generation 2 is... spawned. Let the UGG-liness begin.Twoflowerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18044164183399754449noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2438265161573630585.post-24142041431307248932007-11-05T13:34:00.000-08:002007-11-09T04:18:16.290-08:00Intro: Another New Legacy (because I can't start too many)<a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v135/2flower/Meadow%20Thayer%20UGG%20Legacy/meadow_ugg_title.gif" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket" border="0" /></a><br /><br />My UGG Legacy is an "Uglacy", an idea started by the brilliant Candi020765 who wrote the must-read Uglacy and Prettacy Legacy stories. In 10 generations I would like to see how ugly I can get Meadow's descendants to be. Love her or hate her, if you play The Sims 2, chances are she has broken the heart of at least one of your teen sims. Hopefully I will be able to breed in the worst Maxis/EAaxis-template traits and by generation 10 you will really be able to say, "UGG!"<br /><br />My wonderful husband just bought me a brand new computer (Dell Inspiron 530 if you care to know), so I have not yet cluttered it up with a ton of custom content. I'm thinking for this legacy I will leave out most of the CC, since it is an Uglacy. It would seem contradictory to add pretty face replacement templates, skins, eyes, hair, clothes -- you get the idea.Twoflowerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18044164183399754449noreply@blogger.com0
