Maggie had grown into a beautiful young lady, with long red hair she had worked years to grow.

Now that the kids were all growing up and moving out, Richard decided he could pursue his painting career.

Elisabeth was gaining levels quickly in her career as well.

Mathias was still calling Maggie.  After their last date, and the fact that EVERY single time they were together she was bored out of her mind...she finally got smart and realized good looks and attraction just weren’t enough.  (I kid you not, every time they were together her fun counter would plummet!  It was so weird!)

Soon Maggie had saved up enough money to buy a home near her parents’ with the money she had earned and they had matched.  They threw in a little extra as well to help her get started.

Maggie absolutely loved her new place.  It was very cozy and just perfect for her.  She enjoyed the peace and quiet, but soon started feeling lonely.

Her parents had tried to give her some space, but when she started sounding lonely, they showed up more often to spend the day with her.

They were literally just down the street from her new house!

Elisabeth loved chatting with Maggie about her new place.  They were so close now that they weren’t living together.  If they didn’t visit in person, they were always on the phone talking to each other.

Maggie loved hanging out with her siblings and parents.  She invited everyone to the Ruins one evening to hang out and dance with the local DJ.

There were even several ghosts present, including Maggie’s great grandmother Anastasia.

Derek was still hanging around the house.  He would send sly smiles in Maggie’s direction and she would giggle and blush. They hadn’t had any more alone time together, but she kept thinking about it.  Thoughts of Ridge kept invading her at random times though.  And she would dream of Mathias...he was so hot!  She needed to make a decision soon.

Derek asked Maggie out on a date one evening, just the two of them and some quiet time to talk and see where things would go.

Things went very well.  She went home incredibly happy.  Derek was just so interesting...and she definitely had a school girl crush on him.  He really enjoyed her company as well.  But was it enough?  The chemistry and infatuation was there, but was there love?

Maggie figured it was only fair that she give all 3 boys a fair chance.  So her next date was with Mathias.  To the swimming pool...where she could enjoy that muscular body of his.  Suspiciously, her mother showed up at the same time.

Their date hit legendary status much more quickly...there was a lot of chemistry between them.  But....

All Mathias ever did was talk about himself and sports and video games.  I mean seriously...how could someone so good looking be so BORING?!

Before her date with Ridge, whom Maggie couldn’t stop thinking about, it was time for birthdays all around.  Maggie and the boys would now be young adults.  Maggie’s hair had grown quite long.

It seemed that Ridge also couldn’t keep Maggie out of his mind.  So, to the 3rd and final date to help her make  her decision.

Ridge & Maggie met at the local diner.  He was such a gentleman, opening doors for her, waiting for her to sit down first, even gave her a rose after they ate.  He was so in love with her, and she felt herself falling more and more in love with him.

Richard’s mother invited him over for her Elder birthday.  He hadn’t been to see his step-siblings in a while so he went with two purposes rather than one.

His mother was finally looking like a grandma.  She had appeared so young for so long!  Must have been that bright red hair.

Or maybe her youth had something to do with the new baby and 2 youngsters in her household!  Richard had fun hanging out with his step-siblings.

Ridge and Maggie were hanging out more.  He was really into her, and showed it through lots of attention and sweet little gestures.

When she gave him their first kiss, he was on cloud 9!!

Things got a bit complicated one day when Mathias came over while Ridge was there.  She and Mathias hadn’t kissed yet, but it was still a bit awkward.

Ridge must have been feeling quite possessive because he swooped Maggie up into a big kiss right in front of Mathias!

Mathias took Maggie out on a date one weekend to The Bluffs.  She decided to kiss him too, to see if there was anything more than just butterflies when she was around him.  He was sooooo HOT!!!

Before their date was over, Ridge called Maggie to see if she wanted to meet up with him.

When Maggie showed up to see Ridge, one of her worse nightmares came true!!  She was almost completely naked!!!  Quickly she got dressed, before her father, who also showed up at the same place/same time, would see!

Ridge didn’t seem to notice at all.

Maggie never had really been interested in any of the boys at school.  So when 3 new families with boys her age moved into town, she was hoping there might be some possibilities among them.

First, she met Ridge Everest.  He was really sweet and very much into her.  They talked a lot!

Next, she met Mathias Hair.  His family lived in a really cool house that was decorated with a mix of modern and traditional.  He loved to talk about himself though.  And was way into sports and gaming.  But he was so cute!!

Derek Blazedell moved right next door to her house.  He was so mature.  He talked about things he had done and seen that Maggie had only dreamed of!  Her sister, Abbey, was quite smitten with him too though...in fact she would invite him over after school rather frequently.

Maggie became quite infatuated with Derek.  Since he lived so close, he came over a lot and they would hang out and chat while staring at the clouds and stars.  Derek told Maggie about all sorts of adventures he had been on.

When she couldn’t see them in person, Maggie would spend her evenings on the phone chatting with the boys.

Maggie was a bit fascinated by ghosts.  So when Ridge invited her to a local “Ghost Night”, she HAD to go.  Of course the cute boy had nothing to do with that.  There were so many interested ghosts floating about that had lived in the area.  And a few that seemed to be able to double themselves...which was odd.

TOWNIE NEWS

So remember how one of my rotation couples (Vincent & Makenna Perez-Marks) had triplets after autonomous risky woohoo?  Well, it seems they couldn’t keep their hands off of each other even after 5 kids, and had another one!

The Day of the Dead, or Dios de los Muertos, was in full swing in my sims’ world.

Elizabeth had been promoted far enough in her Athletic career that it was time for her to choose a specialty.  She went with professional athlete.

Richard & Elisabeth both celebrated their adult birthdays...singing at the top of their lungs to each other.

Christopher celebrated his Young Adult birthday, hugged his family and went out to start his career and find a home of his own.  Richard made him promise to come visit often.

The whole family was a bit glum after Christopher moved out, the Platinum kids were growing up *sniff*.

The triplets all finished their aspirations and aged up to teens.

Here are photos of everyone after their birthdays (and skin makeovers...still not sure I’m going to keep these exact ones):

Richard

Elisabeth

Christopher

Trevor (looks exactly like Richard, so can’t use him as my heir...)

Abbey (pretty sure I’m going to choose between her and Maggie for my heir).

Lilly

In other news...

The first EVER gay marriages in my sims game.  I felt bad for Carson...he was married twice before Gary, both women those times, and he must have been miserable.  Also, found it funny...Yosef Hensley (if anyone remembers)...was dating Charlotte Alley when they were teens.  They were promised to each other.  The moment I aged them up to adults, Charlotte married someone else!!!  Yosef never married, and I thought it was a broken heart, but come to find out...he wasn’t even into women!  Paolo has been married twice before in my game as well, both times with women...had 4 children total.

And I leave you with a couple of blooper photos lol

Elisabeth wasn’t the only moody one around.  Her Aunt Jayleen Alley-Drink would go stomping by almost every day.  At least she was getting exercise!  But I don’t think she was enjoying being old.  (She has the insane trait, FYI).

Richard was becoming quite talented in his paintings.  He was bringing in a lot of money and had started creating a few masterpieces.  Maggie demanded this one be hung in her bedroom.

Grandma Jools Alley would come by to visit, and loved it when she’d help her with her homework.  (If you recall a while back...Jools was showing signs of being pregnant, but never had a baby.  She’s aged up to elder and STILL appears to be pregnant, and still no baby!)

Soon it was time for Johnathon’s birthday!  He became a teenager with an immediate hatred of children. That marked him off my list as a possible heir right then.  I don’t want to ever play another heir with the hates children trait!

At least his mother enjoyed spending time with him a lot more now!

At least her 3 older children were now teens!  They could help with the new one on the way!  Time for baby #4!!

Hmmmm...why doesn’t Richard look happy?  Another child in the house!!

Maybe because Elisabeth gave birth to TRIPLETS!!!!  WHAT?!?!

It had become tradition for the Platinum kids to do their homework together in the backyard.

Johnathan was obsessed with learning as much as he could about everything.

Maggie was really picking up some creative skills.  At school she was taking a cooking class and a music class as well.

Maggie also found out there was a local neighborhood challenge for the Day of the Dead.  She could ask participants for sugar skulls to add to her collection.

There were so many bright and colorful costumes around town!  Maggie wanted one for herself!

One evening...I noticed Elisabeth getting into bed with a rather large tummy....  WHAT?!  When did this happen?!

The Bachelor of Newcrest by Meeshelby Season 1 ~ Episode 3 The Search for Love Begins

Our Bachelor, Lance Curtis, was enjoying getting to know the mansion in the couple of days he had to himself before the women would arrive.

Mostly, Lance would spend his time playing the guitar, and learning love songs. He also enjoyed mixing drinks, and especially cooking dishes. In fact, his plan was to cook every meal during his time here.

Soon, it was time for the women to begin arriving! Lance was quite nervous, and tried to calm his nerves by strumming more on the guitar.

Heather Howell was the first girl to arrive at the mansion.

Lance went to the front gate to greet her. He was there before she arrived. When they first laid eyes on one another, their expressions were ones of nervous excitement.

However, after the immediate pleasantries, they gave each other a big hug (autonomously) and it broke the ice right away.

For the next several minutes they chatted non stop about many different things. Heather told Lance that she enjoyed running and being active in general, but had a tendency to fall on her face on occasion. Lance laughed at all her jokes and she listened avidly as he talked about his love of music and food.

Heather explained that she was looking for her soul mate and hoped that maybe this time together would show if they would be a match. They both felt an immediate connection and were excited to see if it was more than just first meeting jitters.

Heather started into the mansion to wait until Lance was finished meeting the other girls, but he chased her down and chatted a little while longer, not quite ready to let her go.

After he finally let her go, Lance had a HUGE cheesy grin on his face! He knew he wanted to get to know her more.

The next girl to arrive at the mansion was Maya Greene.

When she entered the gate, they smiled shyly at one another and introduced themselves.

Their introduction was full of awkward silence, and small giggles.

Finally, Lance broke the silence with some jokes and she politely laughed.

That broke the ice and Maya began telling Lance all about her love of gardening. They connected over their mutual love of food!

When Maya finally went into the mansion, they both had a pleasant smile on their faces.

The 3rd model to arrive, was Katherine Akins.

Their mutual attraction to one another was immediately apparent.

Katherine was quite the talker, so Lance listened avidly while she talked about her love of music and food. Lance smiled quite widely, thinking they had a lot in common!
