Differences

Round 5 - Spring 2036 - Mini-Update
Last update/ Next update
Celeste and Satitu Oros are 25, Starema Orionious is 125

My whole life has changed, since you came in
I knew back then
You were that special one, I'm so in love
So deep in love
You made my life complete, you are so sweet
No one competes
Glad you came into my life, You blind me with you love
With you I have no sight

Celeste was simply in love with the new house she and Satitu had purchased. It was located in Lorrington and was big enough for the two of them and Starema. There was even room for a kid or two..........

Good Riddance (Time of Your Life) - 2036

Round 5 - Spring 2036 - LBU
Last update/ Next update/ Kayla, Tippy, Mindi/ Kenny, Brian, Slade
Kenny Coners, Brian Johnson, Slade Willis, Kayla Knowles, Tippy Dean, Casey Addler, and Mindi Mason are 21, Taesha Foster and Gordon Nott are 19

Another turning point, a fork stuck in the road
Time grabs you by the wrist, directs you where to do
So make the best of this test, and don't ask why
It's not a question, but a lesson learned in time
It's something unpredictable, but in the end is right
I hope you had the time of your life....

"Dude, why are you still wearing that? Aren't you hot?" Brian asked.
"We're about to graduate, do you realize that? I may not take this thing off until after graduation!"
"You look like the Grim Reaper! Go take that off! Not cool, man. Not cool."

Time

Round 5 - Spring 2036
Last update/ Next update
Christian and Alana Brown are 39, Christa is 10, Aidan and Hayden are 2

So for a while now, I've kept in mind
Cuz what they say is true
That you are of the essence, down to the very last second
And I'm so glad, that I've grown, to respect you.
Time waits for nothing,
And everything is going to take it's time.......

Alana was waaay past tired and the day was just beginning! It was hell running after two toddler boys and trying to come up with new recipes for her restaurant. She loved being a mother more than anything, but it was beginning to wear her down.......

Overjoyed

Round 5 - Winter 2035
Last update/ Next update
Joe Carr is 40, Ariel is 34, Kayden is 6, Javion is 4

And though you don't believe that they do
They do come true
For did my dreams
Come true when I looked at you
And maybe too if you would believe
You too might be
Overjoyed, over loved, over me

Ariel and Joe decided that it was time that they had a family trip out together. Since they were still paying off the loan on their house, they couldn't really take a big vacation. So they decided to take the boys to the new National History Center downtown. It would be fun for them and also educational.

Round 5 - Winter 2035


Tessa was out laying on the beach when her water broke. It had been an unseasonably warm winter and she was enjoying it.......but baby de Muse was ready to enter the world....

Round 5 - Winter 2035
Last update/ Next update
Keisha and Tanner Knowles are 47, Kali Knowles is 8 (Kevin and Kinsley Knowles are 29, Ryan is 3, Ricki is 2, Kayla is 21, Tabitha Coners is 45, Terrence is 44, Imani is 8)

Where's your gavel? Your jury?
What's my offense this time?
You're not a judge but if you're going to judge me
Then sentence me to another life....

It was the very beginning of winter and Tanner was trying to find new ways to relax. There was a counterfit ring going on around LaQuest and his vice squad duties had doubled. To say he was stressed was an understatement! So he had taken up bug collecting. Keisha couldn't understand it and refused to take part in it, but he and Kali had developed a bond over their bug hunting expeditions.

LaQuest Beach Schools

I couldn't use the high school I downloaded by Simagroop because the lag was just too bad with all my students on it so I just decided to download two smaller schools and keep the high school separate from the elementary school. The elementary school is this lot from modthesims. The high school is this lot from thesimsresource. I had to knock down a few walls and redecorate them quite a bit, but I'm pretty pleased with the results. So here they are:

The Light

Round 5 - Fall 2035 - LBU
Last update/ Next update
Taesha Foster and Gordon Nott are 19, Kayla Knowles, Kenny Coners, Brian Johnson, Mindi Mason, Tippy Dean, Casey Addler, Slade Willis are 21 (Tabitha Coners is 45, Terrence is 44, Keisha and Tanner Knowles are 47)

So I pray more than anything, friends we'll stay
As we begin to lay this foundation for a family
Love ain't simple, why can't it be?
Anything worth having you work at annually
Granted we've known each other for some time
It don't take a whole day to recognize sunshine

Taesha and Gordon were really getting along very well. More than she would have ever thought possible. She never really paid him much attention when he would come over to her house to play video games. It was funny how you could overlook something so easily.......

Round 5 - Fall 2035


Tessa was still finding it hard to believe that she was pregnant! She only had a few months to go before she gave birth and she was getting a little nervous........

Don't Change

Round 5 - Fall 2035
Last update/ Next update
Donna Foster is 51, DeJuan is 48 (Ryan Knowles is 3, Ricki is 2, Kevin is 29)

I'll love you when your hair turns gray
I'll still love you if you gain a little weight
The way I feel for you will always be the same
Just as long as your love don't change


Donna was suffering from empty nest syndrome. It was bad enough when Brian went off to college, but now that Taesha was gone too, Donna found herself missing having them around. Brian had already decided that he and his bandmates were going to rent an apartment together after graduation and Taesha still had two more years to go. She didn't know what she was suppose to do with herself now......

Heaven

Round 5 - Fall 2035
Last update/ Next update
Kevin and Kinsley Knowles are 29, Ryan is 3, Ricki is 2 (Keisha Knowles is 47)

I've never lived my days like this
I wake up in the morning, she greets me with a kiss
The Lord has gifted me with such happiness
Said it feels like heaven, ooohhhh heaven
I got heaven right here on Earth....

Ryan and Ricki were the best kids that anyone could ask for........well, they were sometimes! In those few quite hours when they would play together with no problems, Kinsley couldn't love them anymore........
