Everything happens for a reason!

Dustin screw up a job and lost all his criminal connections, prob for the best but he still did everything he could around the house to help with his mom and his brothers. School was extremely hard for him with how little time he had for homework :c His brothers however were growing up really well which was worth it for him!

Beau loves books and if asked he wants to become an author when he grows up! He is doing amazing in school, he is a perfect little gentleman! The little off feeling everyone has when they interact with him is nothing to worry about and just their imaginations and should be dismissed :^) Unbeknownst to everyone he took a part time job in the criminal career as a teen after Dustin left for college.

Oliver-Skip on the other hands is the cutest thing ever! With his fluffy little hair and his beanie that he never takes off 🥺 He is doing great at school but his true passion is music. It took a bit but they were eventually able to buy him a violin! He started working at the record store c:

Aaaand Brandi got really friendly with Nina!

Now Mary-Sue...is NOT living her best life lol. She lost her job and caught Daniel cheating, who also lost his job :') Those chance cards have been brutal to my sims oop. He spent the whole summer sleeping on the couch, writing shitty books that sold cause he is kinda famous i assume and eating cookies.

Angela I think took the situation with her parents pretty hard. Dustin barely had time for her, school was getting hard, life with her sister was... as always :\ She ended up doing most of the work around the house as Mary-Sue got a new job in business and had 0 time. Lilith on the other hand has been doing? great??? She and Dirk had their awesome date, school was a breeze, she put on them earphones and completely ignored her parents ♥ She did feel a little sorry for Angela though despite being super mean to her all the time and did her homework for her a couple times which was adorable, maybe she was thinking that you should be of some use to the one preparing your food ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Starting with my beloved Goths, Don (thankfully) fucked off the wedding, leaving Cass in aspiration failure.

Fear not however cause Alex had her back. They literally stayed there all night hanging out and then playing in the garden 🥺 it was so wholesome! They got into the habit of playing chess together, and they are besties ever since 🥺🥺🥺

And they both rolled a want to adopt a cat, so meet Virma!

And then came the post breakdown makeover ヽ(*⌒▽⌒*)ﾉ look at her 🥹

Now Dina in her angst to get that mansion got herself pregnant, but Mortimer not being an idiot moved all his fortune to Cassandra and trusted her to take care of the family's finances from now on. Still both Cass and Alex were really not happy to have Dina live with them. Like come on they used Cass' wedding everything. She showed up in her night gown and ate all the food in the back, Alex joined lmao

Then Dina took a major L when her son Vincent was born and Mortimer insisted he take her last name since it was just them sisters :) And worse of all Dina really didn't want to be a mother lmao. She rolled exactly 0 wants in relation to her kid. No worries though cause Cass was more than happy to do it! And so were Alex and Mortimer!

Also courtesy of ACR (that mod is WILD) Cass booty called Don despite being furious at him I'm interpreting this as hate sex and boom meet Valery! She has Don's sloppiness, eyes and nothing else!
