Happy Birthday to Ya!

Round 9 - May 2043

The morning that Joanna went into labor was the scariest in Brian Johnson's life!
"We've got to get to the hospital," Joanna said.
"Should we move you though? I should just call an ambulance," Brian said.
"NO! Brian just get the car!"

Happy Birthday to Ya!

Round 9 - November 2042

Only one birthday this time!

Logan Phillippine is one-year-old this winter. He is a very neat (6), active (6), and nice (7) little boy who is quite shy (3) and serious (3). He is the spitting image of his father Clarence. 

Just a kiss

Round 9 - August 2042

Last update/ Next update

Brian Johnson and Joanna King are 28 

Just a kiss on your lips in the moonlight

Just a touch of the fire burning so bright

And I don't wanna mess this thing up

I don't want to push too far

Just a shot in the dark that you just might

Be the one I've been waiting for my whole life

So baby, I'm alright with just a kiss goodnight

Brian had always wanted to live by the beach, but growing up in Englewood made that impossible. He knew how lucky he was to be WHERE he was. Fate had finally shined down upon his family after kicking them in the teeth for so long. Things were really tough after his father died and his mother struggled a lot. But now she had DeJuan and a nice house in Talum Heights, his sister was married to a doctor and had her own house on the beach and a successful boutique, and he was in a band he loved that allowed him to purchase the house he had always wanted..............

Three Lakes was a gorgeous place and Kenny couldn't wait until Kayla joined them. They were once again put up in a very nice hotel. Kenny still couldn't believe how lucky they had been so far.

Brian was going to go to jail. He couldn't believe Taesha was pregnant! And she didn't even tell him! His mother was the one to make the call. She said it was because Taesha thought he would yell at her. Well of course he was going to yell at her! Why the hell wouldn't he? And Gordon Nott was definitely a dead man. He didn't care how much his mother told him to calm down.........

Happy Birthday to Ya!

Round 6 - Fall 2036

Lots of birthdays this time!

Mindi Mason, Kayla Knowles, and Tippy Dean are all 22 this fall and are now residing in Camden Park. Mindi isn't exactly sure what she wants to do and is just delivering pizzas right now. It's a crappy job but it pays the bills! Kayla Knowles is working at LaQuest Beach Preparatory School as an art teacher and is still working on her art collection. She plans to open a gallery with her trust fund once she turns 25. Tippy Dean hopes to work in the entertainment industry but is settling for paying the bills with a few modeling gigs until she gets her big break.

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."

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.......

Cause I still have not revealed it

Cause I still get the feeling

That loving her is a game I'll always lose

I've got the brown eyed blues...

Brian never knew he could feel this way about someone. Mindi was the coolest chick he had ever met and he was so glad that he was with her. Sure, at one point all he wanted was to get laid, but things had changed and he truly cared about her now......he did enjoy woohooing with her though.......

 It seemed that everyone was all in love and crap. So Tippy decided that she was going to see what all the fuss was about. She saw Caleb Addler in the library and was instantly attracted to him.....so she asked him out......What? Was she suppose to wait on him to notice her and ask her? Men were helpless in that regard and Tippy didn't like to waste time!

Oh, she would be the oldest one in the freshman hall, but she didn't care. She had finally found what everyone else had, love...........

 Kayla really admired Orlando and Sam's relationship. Sam seemed like a good guy and the two couldn't keep their hands off of each other. They had all been talking about what they were going to do next year. It was a rule that freshman had to stay in Teder Hall but they would all be sophmores next year. They had all gotten pretty close during their time together. Sam and Orlando planned to move into one of the upper level dorms. Kayla had became friends with Tippy Dean, another art major, and they were going to get a rental house on campus. Brian and Kenny were going to do the same if they could save up the money for it. Neither guy wanted to bother his parents about it. Kayla had no idea what Tosha planned to do.....She was a bit......spacey at times!

Kenny couldn't believe that he was finally in college! It wasn't all that exciting yet, but he knew things would change soon. He and Brian had already come up with a name for their band, Mellow Metal, and were even trying to get the local campus pub to let them come and play. It would only be music as they didn't have a singer, but it was a way to get their name out there. Kenny thought it would be cool to be involved in a traveling band.....but for Brian, it was much, much more.......

She felt it some days. Felt like she was almost 50 years old. 50! Where had the time gone? It seemed like only yesterday that Kinsley was dancing on her father's toes. Now she was a grown married woman with a life of her own and Donna had remarried. She didn't know if she would find love again after Kinsley and Brian's father died. But DeJuan came along and changed all of that for her.

Fast Forward: Johnson

 Last update/ Next update

When we left Donna Johnson, she had just met DeJuan Foster and the two hit it off automatically. They began dating in secret because Donna didn't want to let her kids find out. Kinsley was old enough to understand, but she was afraid Brian wouldn't take it well. DeJuan had a child of his own, Taesha, and he didn't want her getting upset about it either.

Fast Forward: Johnson & Knowles

Last update/ Next update / Kevin & Kinsley next update

Kevin Knowles' fraternity house had grown into the party center for the Sim State campus. Everyone wanted to join and Kevin was very proud of the work he had done. He would be sad to leave the house, but graduation was around the corner and he knew that he was leaving the house in good hands with his frat brothers.

Kinsley Johnson is super excited. She is beginning her first semester at LaQuest Beach Community College, or LBCC, and her mother is taking her out to do some shopping! She's still upset that she didn't end up at the same college as her boyfriend, Kevin Knowles, but she knows that she will see him most weekends and really wanted him to have the opportunity to go to Sim State University. Besides, one of her friends from high school is also attending LBCC so she will know a familiar face. Tristen Chase is the guy who introduced Kinsley to Kevin.
