Chapter 1.10: Around the World in 80 Days

Last Time: Celeste left Greta in charge of the house while her and Seth had to go away. A new addition to the family--a baby boy, Brand was born. 

Celeste woke up one Friday morning to find that it was indeed time for her to grow into an elder.While it was her time she didn't want to grow up just yet--she did still have a toddler to look after--how would she have the energy.

And it wasn't just the fact she wouldn't have the energy, it was also because she hasn't even tried to fulfill her lifetime wish of reaching 10 skill points in Photography.  
Her and Seth had been so busy with the kids and did not have the funds to even think about going overseas to buy a good camera.

A present arrived the exact same day but it wasn't for Celeste it was for her kids.  It was a university pack, so her children could see if they would be illegible for possible enrollment.  This package also came at a time where Celeste had to think about choosing her heir as she was now an elder.

Greta was the first one of the children to check out the package.  She fell right into the school spirit.

She did the test and it turns out she is well fit for the Arts degree.  She was thrilled not only for her future but also because it would impress her mother who was choosing an heir soon.

Ruby also tried the test and did not score as high as Greta.  Her mother was just thrilled she did the test at all. The test woke Ruby up to how much she really wanted to to to university.  Willow was not able to do the test yet as she was still a child and was jealous that her sisters were making a good impression with her mother as she desperately wanted to be heir to the Silverset legacy.

To try and empress their mother further both teens studied like they had never studied before.

Meanwhile, the two boys of the family Seth and Brand bonded.

While Seth knew it was a slim chance that Celeste would choose Brand to be heir he still hoped she would consider him and tried to teach him some skills that she would be impressed with.

 With all of Celeste's overwhelming feelings of becoming an elder she took Seth aside and told him she really wanted to try and fulfill her lifetime wish while she still could.

Celeste told him that it would mean that they would need to go overseas and Seth understood.

He said that even though funds were tight he would love to go over to Egypt with Celeste so she could begin taking photos so she could try and fulfill her wish before she passed.

Celeste took a selfie to celebrate.

As the kids had had practice being by themselves before it wasn't a big deal when Seth and Celeste left for Egypt.  It was also a chance for Celeste to clear her head before she chose an heir.

Both where happy to be doing something different with their lives and were excited for an adventure.

They stayed at a campsite that was home to many travelers from all over the world.

While Celeste wasn't taking photos she was trying out the local customs...

...exploring the local sites...

...and checking out the natural beauty of the place.

Seth meanwhile thought more of his stomach then the wonderful world surrounding him.

 He found a local vegetable that he grew fond of and cooked up every night by the fire.

This trip allowed the two to bond more and become more happy with themselves as they grow older.

The two parents came home to rebellious Greta smashing up a snowman.

To Ruby making friends with a cute boy...

...and talking to him about her collage aspersions...

...not to mention getting close to him--as she is a great kisser.

Willow was trying her best to improve her grades--trying to impress her mother.

Celeste always knew that Brand was too young to take on the responsibility of being heir but that didn't make her love the tacker any less.

Over the never few months she watched her children at work--doing what they loved.  As the very next day she was to choose her heir.
Greta flaunted her musical skills around, Celeste was impressed with how good her daughter was at playing the piano.

Willow impressed Celeste with her writing skills--she could now type 100 words per minute.

Even though her skills were not as high as they should be Ruby was impressing her mother with how much over the last year she has changed into an ambitious women.

Celeste decided to brainstorm with her husband about her heir.

They discussed the children and what traits Celeste's heir should highlight.

Seth brought up the fact that they should be neat and tidy.

They should be artistic.  This gave Celeste ideas.

Celeste also brought up the point of looking after and developing the house further.

They shouldn't be too much of a diva or in the spotlight to much--as both Seth and Celeste were they didn't want there children to be bothered by fame.

After a few minutes it was clear to Celeste who she would leave in charge of the Silverset legacy.

Find out who Celeste has handed over her legacy too.  How will the other children take it?  Will Celeste fulfill her lifetime want before her time is out?

Back soon!

Hi guys,

I will be back soon with a post.  I have just started a new job and Univercity has also started to commence.  I think I will be back within the next two weeks, most likely when Univercity comes out.

Thank you.

Cya soon!

Chapter 1.9: Winters Bone

Last Time: Seth and Celeste had two beautiful additions to their family--Ruby, who is an excitable virtuoso and another daughter Willow, who loves and cold and has an artistic flare.  The eldest daughter, Greta became rebellious and Celeste wanted to start up her career again but she can't because--she's pregnant. 

*I have noticed that Greta has vampire teeth.  She is not a vampire but has the teeth, strange..*

Celeste and Seth discussed their options know that a new baby was on the way.  They would need to extend the house to fit another bed inside.

With the house extension they would need more then just a new bed, but new windows, doors, wallpaper--a whole lot.

They also discussed that after all they were both excited for the family edition.

Celeste told Seth the only thing she was worried about was the kids and how they will feel with a new addition to the family.

Seth suggested they just tell them and let them play more music more often.

The elder kids were told and reacted calmly.

Seth was hoping that the new baby would be a boy, he needed another male in a house with four females.

Seth and Celeste chose to have some time away from the kids to relax before he new baby came.  That meant Greta was in charge of the household.

As it was in her rebellious nature Greta invited a few friends around of a gathering.

She desided to set up some traps, whoopee cushions...

...and ink in the shower.

Neo was the first over, he had dinner at the house.  Greta whipped up a salad from them.

The next guest Aaron Clark was just a pest, he ripped one of the dinning chairs to shreds.

Greta lost it.  Her parents were gong to kill her.

She was so angry with Aaron that she threatened to hit him with a newspaper.

He retaliated and scared Greta.

But she stayed strong and hit the annoying hound.

Ruby plays make believe a lot.

She is also a gifted ghost story teller.

Some guests partied to hard.

Once Greta saw Neo pasted out on the ground and remembered the broken chair she had to send everyone home.

The party was broken up and Greta went to bed, forgetting to do one major thing.

Greta woke up early the next day to the cries of her sister up stairs.

The next day Ruby sat on Greta's whoopee cushion she planted for the party.

She wasn't impressed.

Neither was Celeste when she got home to the house in such a mess.

Greta forgot to clean up before her parents came home.  Whoops!

Seth was not thrilled either.

Greta was sent to the naughty corner everyday for the next few days.

She was sick and tired of always getting into trouble but it was in her nature.  She told Celeste how sorry she was.

Celeste thought about Greta's apology.

Celeste forgave Greta but said she has to focus more on her school work and music more to prove to her that she is trying to not be so rebellious.

And Greta did just that.  She would ask Seth to listen to her play, wanting tips to be better.

She did her homework mostly every night.

Meanwhile, Celeste was trying to focus her attention towards her other children.  Teaching them things for life, like how to walk and talk.

Seth also entertained the younger one.  Frequently playing games with them.

Then the day came where Celeste gave birth to the new baby boy of the family, Brand.  The labor was by far the easiest she had but because of her old age she was more tired after it then ever. Brand was born (to be continued).

It became Winter in the Silverset household and to celebrate they placed decorative lights upon their roof.

Willow aged up, she was now a bit of a Diva.

Her and Ruby one go on so well but now that Willow grew into a Diva they didn't get on to famously.

Once again, Celeste and Seth had to go away, this time it was a design convention in Sim City.  They left Greta in charge and gave her the opportunity to show that she has grown up.

She encouraged her two sisters to interact more together to tighten their relationship.  The built snow men together.

The turned out pretty flash.

Meanwhile, Greta was flirting with the neighbor boy Neo.

Her flirting was very aggressive.

While his parents were away Brand turned into a toddler.  He had his mothers intense eyes and his fathers face.

Will Seth and Celeste come home to a well behaved bunch of children?
