Here's Why You Should Try Out Simblr.cc

“Well looks like we’re done moving in boxes.” Gracie smiled “I know, it’s crazy.” She looked over at her sister and ran her fingers through her hair. “I can’t believe my baby sister is all grown up. And moving into Nana’s old house. It feels so surreal,” she looked around at the old place. “But remember I am always here for you. That’s the nice part of Sam and I only being thirty minutes away. And you know your my permanent babysitter now right?” “I wouldn’t have it any other way Hope,” Gracie smiled. “And thank you.” “Let’s take a picture for Mom okay? Mmmmm lets be cute.” She handed her phone to her husband Sam who began clicking away. “Now lets be dramatic models” The sisters stilled for a minute until they began laughing as Gracie’s cat Willow began meowing loudly at their feet. “We’ve got to get back my Love,” Sam said as he hugged Gracie. “I know I know.” Hope teased as she looked lovingly at Gracie. “Promise you’ll visit?” “I promise,” Gracie said, pinky out as she pulled Hope in for one more hug. “Love you sissy!” Hope yelled as they pulled out of the driveway. “Love you too!”

Hylewood Round 1 -Atwood

Part Two

While William focuses on his political career at City Hall, the girls are enjoying summer break. Thanks to @misspats3 better playdates mod the neighbor Amy Miller called and asked if her son Devon could come play with the girls. Amy is naturally shy so she and Sarah didn't gain much friendship, but Devon and Jessica hit it off.

Charlotte on the other hand has the loner trait so she preferred to swing on the swings, read, and run her bake sale (maybe a future baker or entrepreneur?)

Pretty soon Jessica was wanting to become best friends with Devon and I just love these two.

Sarah is the school teacher so she decided to study some skills online to prep for fall. And next thing ya know I see William is home and these two are autonomously giving each other back rubs. They are so in love.

I’m happy to report another friend came all the way to Winchester to visit me! Matt! He was supposed to come to help me pick apples but instead, he just hid behind his little camera. Oh well. Glad for the company even if it was just me picking apples. My plan is to send him lots of pictures of apple pie later to get  back at him.

This week I’ve been playing and doing some testing with the Keaton family in Sunset Valley. Decided to use my dk-sims cute wallpapers and some of the new dinosaur prints I made with Poster Loader for the nursery. 

Hey Guys!  Wanted to start sharing my recent save. I’m playing rotationally in the beautiful Hylewood by @nilxis! This is my first rotation since finishing doing some of my own builds and I’m excited to share a mix of gameplay, story, and occasionally posed photos. 

Atwood Family Bio:

Hello from Hylewood’s oldest family line, William Atwood’s great grandfather helped discover and found this Island and they have been helping the Island grow ever since. William is in the political career trying to make his way up to mayor. His wife Sarah is the local teacher and they have two beautiful daughters Charlotte (left) and Jessica (right). 

One of the wealthiest families on the Island, William is a perfectionist who deeply cares about appearances. He makes sure his daughters are well behaved straight A+ students, while his wife helps brings out the family’s gentler nurturing side. William is perfectly happy with how life is going, but his wife Sarah thinks that maybe they have room in the family for one more. 

The lovely Andram @andramsimming and Jamie @simmingaroundtheworld have created something AMAZING! This is being used in Hylewood ASAP. Thank you lovelies!

Ahhh Matt...Gracie’s next boyfriend but not end game poor girl. Loved using some base sims for these gorgeous sims

“Can I sit here?” Gracie’s timid voice squeaked as she asked. She cleared her throat.

“Yeah, totally!” The girl in the Hawaiian print shirt smiled openly. “But you have to promise not to judge me for this plate of dessert.”

Gracie giggled as she sat down, “Deal.”

“So are you new here?”

Gracie brushed at the wisps of hair threatening to stick to the sweat on her forehead. “Yeah, I just recently moved to Appaloosa Plains for a teaching job. I’m a little anxious…” Gracie trailed off as a muscular man approached. It took her all of three seconds to know he was one good looking guy.

“Oh this is Matt,” the girl pointed.

“Hey” he waved with one hand.

“Oh and I’m Nicole!” The girl said apologetically.

Matt across his plate towards Gracie “and remember it’s Nicole, not Nicki, otherwise she’ll hate you forever and probably hurt you” he winked.

Nicole rolled her eyes “That’s only half true, I just hate the nickname Nicki”

“Got it” Gracie said. She found conversation came easily and before she knew it Matt and Nicole felt more like long lost friends than recent acquaintances.

“Any one else want seconds on dessert?”

“Me!” Both girls replied and giggled. They got up and waited in the buffet line, with Matt also grabbing a variety of other left overs.

“Uhm Matt, why are you giving that old lady a death glare?”

“Because she’s eating the last piece of key lime pie” He pouted, turning his puppy dog eyes on the girls.

“Well I can help with that, I made it so how about you guys come over soon and I’ll make you some?”

“Yes!” “Great”

I guess moms recipe was a success, Gracie thought.

——————- A big thanks to Frankie @simplyimaginarypeople whose sims from the SSFF challenge I used as a base for Nicole and to @plumblobs whose base sim Jack I used to make Matt.

~  S U M M E R ~ “Hey guys, just wanted to share some progress on my house reno. The floor plan of the down stairs has completely changed to make it more open concept, removing walls that separates the kitchen from the living space and putting up walls to create a new guest bedroom, half bath, and laundry room. Kitchen is still a wip but please enjoy my summer living room. I’m currently loving these white and blue wildflower pillows!”

As a surprise for Nellie, Frank invited her closest friends over for the weekend to throw her a bridal shower. He knew she was finding the idea of getting married without her family or friends difficult to bear. Nevertheless, it was a sacrifice they had to make to keep the farm a float and to savor a small honeymoon to France.

One phone call to Anna Leigh who was dubbed the ‘mother’ of the group - due to her wisdom, ability to organise and multitask like no one else - and the girls left their busy lives and came together at the old farmhouse in the midst of ancient trees and sprawling wildflowers. Vesper left her insta-worthy adventures, Roxie left her beautiful young family and sweet Gracie left behind her new teaching career; all to be with their friend who needed them.

It was Vesper’s idea to host the morning tea outdoors where Frank proposed to Nellie. Anna Leigh - culinary goddess - baked magic and brewed the most delightful tea. Gracie sneakily ran around picking the flowers that adorned the table. Roxie distracted Nellie with tales of her children and then blindfolded her and led her to the morning tea.

The day flew by in a heartbeat and before they knew it, their time together was drawing to an end. Frank, who had become quite the camera man that day, took one last photo. That photo became a keepsake of their weekend together and the memories they shared.

A huge thank you from the bottom of my heart to the amazing simblrs who trusted me with their beautiful simmies. These amazing people are @kevinvoncrastenburg, @silverowlblog, @simsdeogloria and @velvetpxl. I told you that I was a slow poke and I thank you for your patience and faith in me. I hope I’ve done you and your simmies proud. @simblrsimplyforfun
