Generation 3 - Chapter 5

Ok, this is the chapter with the headmaster. You can't even begin to imagine what goes on when the subject of the headmaster shows up. Here begins the adventure. Leilani had been spinning up the want for Moana to be accepted into private school and for a while she had also had rejection from the private school so I held back. The house was nicely decorated, the walls had wallpaper and paintings were on the walls so I was ready when Leilani was ready. Leilani got pregnant and her main fears had to do with the pregnancy so her private school rejection fear spun out. Leilani gave the headmaster a call and invited him over and they started cleaning the house with the help of Lucy. Moana came home from school and did the majority of her homework, but was too pooped to finish it so she headed off to bed to sleep through the visit. Remington had the highest cooking skills so he was elected to cook the turkey while Leilani was chosen to greet the headmaster. Five o'clock came around and Leilani went out to the curb to wait for the headmaster. Image hosted by Photobucket.com Leilani greeted Korey Jitmakusol, but didn't make the greatest first impression. "Oh no, ma'am. I'd rather you were wearing a hat. If I come back, please wear one or else I don't want to talk to you." Image hosted by Photobucket.com Leilani thought it best to start the tour since Remington was still working on dinner. Leilani showed him the front room and then noticed Remington sitting down to eat the dinner - which he burnt by the way. So Leilani ended the tour (I didn't know that you couldn't restart it later) and got a score of 2 for the tour. They sat down to the burnt turkey dinner, which the headmaster didn't seem to like. Image hosted by Photobucket.com But they managed to hold a steady conversation. Image hosted by Photobucket.com After the meal Leilani continued to *not* impress the headmaster. Image hosted by Photobucket.com She let one rip right at the dinner table. Trust me, this is not the worst of it. The dinner, even though it was burnt, managed to get a score of 39 so Remington, also with the highest charisma points, had to work his magic on Korey. While Remington was talking and schmoozing with the headmaster, who should make her first ghostly appearance but Marisa. Image hosted by Photobucket.com Image hosted by Photobucket.com It's only been a couple days since she died, so I was a bit surprised she was there. Her first order of business was, of course, to check out her bed. Image hosted by Photobucket.com Then she kind of floated around the house almost as if she was checking to see if everything was in order. Image hosted by Photobucket.com And then as Remington thought he was doing pretty well with the headmaster, Marisa made her appearance known. I won't even tell you what happened because the pictures are better. Image hosted by Photobucket.com (Check out the PINK suit Brady is wearing in the background...sigh)Image hosted by Photobucket.com Image hosted by Photobucket.com Notice the piddle at the headmaster's feet. You would think that that would turn the headmaster away, right? I wouldn't let it because some time during the visit, Leilani spun up the private school rejection fear so I could not lose. Thank goodness for Remington and chasing the headmaster around the house and schmoozing like a mad man because with 0:38 left in the scenario, Remington scored a 60 on the scmoozing giving a total score of 101/90 getting Moana into private school. Whew! Image hosted by Photobucket.com After the headmaster left, Marisa roamed about some more, even managed to scare Moana as she got out of the shower, but I didn't get a picture of that. Here are some pictures of Marisa roaming. Image hosted by Photobucket.com Image hosted by Photobucket.com Is that an evil smile? And finally, she shows her powers of levitating a teddy bear. Image hosted by Photobucket.com Image hosted by Photobucket.com And later that night after everyone had gone to sleep as Leilani was watching tv. Image hosted by Photobucket.com Once again, a solitary Cavanaugh birth. Image hosted by Photobucket.com Image hosted by Photobucket.com Leilani and Remington's second child, a girl named Maya, came into the world. Image hosted by Photobucket.com This one looked just like her sister, but one differnce is she has the Cavanaugh eyes. Image hosted by Photobucket.com And Remington? Sleeping again. Image hosted by Photobucket.com And now we have Moana our little Private School child. Image hosted by Photobucket.com You better appreciate the hard work we had to go through to get you in, young lady!

Generation 3 - Chapter 4

Once the birthday cake was spread around and everyone had all they wanted, Brady once again tried to make a change to his looks now that he was an adult. This time he didn't like what he saw. Image hosted by Photobucket.com I barely changed it, but oh well. And now that Leilani and Brady were both adults and Leilani had already started her family with Remington, Noelle was feeling a bit crowded and decided what she really wanted to do was go to college and be the first in her family to go. So she made a quick phone call and got some scholarships and quickly enrolled and no sooner had she hung up the phone did a taxi come to take her away. Brady was sad to see her go so she walked her to the cab to say goodbye to her. Image hosted by Photobucket.com A little bit later, to comfort himself, Brady went shopping and bought some new clothes because he didn't want to be stuck in that track suit during his adult years. When the sun fell for the night as Brady was walking to the kitchen, who should appear but Image hosted by Photobucket.com good ole Tony. Our first sighting of him. I was wondering when he would make an appearance because it had been several days since he died. And the first place he went to? Image hosted by Photobucket.com He just wanted to make sure the bed he shared with Marisa was still there and he was quite happy it was. He didn't do much his first night out, he just roamed around the front yard watching out for the family as well as roaming in the back yard. And I liked this next picture because as Remington is serving dinner, you can see Tony floating by the dining room window. Image hosted by Photobucket.com Now that Brady was officially an adult, he called over Lucy to get things started between the two of them. Remember that fire fighter Marisa befriended back when Moana had her birthday? Turns out Marisa was the only one who had any relationship points with her and Marisa died before she could call her over. And we weren't going to be starting any fires to get her to come over because the family starts enough fires of their own. So Lucy is the girl for Brady. "So Lucy, do you like my new look? I called you over here to talk about our relationship. What do you think of the idea of you and me?" Image hosted by Photobucket.com Brady and Lucy didn't talk for long, only because he felt he was ready to make his move on Lucy and moved in for their first kiss. Image hosted by Photobucket.com While Brady and Lucy were busy falling in love Image hosted by Photobucket.com Leilani and Remington were in their room busy doing other things. They had decided they wanted to have another baby and they decided that tonight would be the night. Image hosted by Photobucket.com They succeeded in conceiving and Leilani woke up in the middle of the night to make herself something to eat. She had been spinning up the want to buy an expensive stereo and I thought I would test something I thought might work. I bought a stereo while in the pause mode and then when she got the aspiration boost, I sold it and got the cheaper one back. Didn't work, those points got taken away, but it was worth a shot. Surprisingly, Leilani knew about the purchase because she walked over to the radio and wished for the expensive stereo back. Image hosted by Photobucket.com The next day, Brady asked Remington to work on his portrait to be added to the family collection. When the portrait was done, Brady was happy with Remington's work. Image hosted by Photobucket.com Really, I think that Brady is happy whenever he looks at himself in any form be it in the mirror or in a picture. Remington continued to paint because he was so close to maxing out his creativity and he achieved his goal. Image hosted by Photobucket.com Brady managed to catch Lucy in the kitchen as she was working and expressed his interest in including her in the family some day. Image hosted by Photobucket.com And ever since he became an adult, he has been spinning up wants to see Meadow so I thought I would oblige so Meadow came on over. "I'm sorry, Brady, we just can't be together now that you are an adult." "I know, Meadow. I guess I just needed to get you out of my system." Image hosted by Photobucket.com When Meadow went inside, Lucy came out to see what his conversation with Meadow was about. "I just told her that I couldn't be with her anymore, and that I found a great woman who could make me happy." Image hosted by Photobucket.com Today would also be Moana's birthday and time for her to become a child. Brady was spending some last minute bonding time with Lucy so Remington took Moana over to her cake to help with her transition. Image hosted by Photobucket.com When everyone assembled around the cake to watch Moana do her thing, Moana, well, did her thing. =) Image hosted by Photobucket.com Image hosted by Photobucket.com Do you think that is painful? And now for a child Moana. Image hosted by Photobucket.com Such a cutie and she grew up well, which made her parents happy. Image hosted by Photobucket.com

Generation 3 - Chapter 3

After Moana transitioned and Marisa was taken away by the grim reaper, Leilani and Remington thought it best to focus on Moana and keep her happy. Remington took on the task of teaching Moana how to walk Image hosted by Photobucket.com and Leilani played with her to make her laugh and help her get over her grandmother's passing. Image hosted by Photobucket.com Since Remington wanted to be the one to teach Moana all her skills, Leilani let him do it because it made him happy. It was any other normal night when Remington thought he might as well get the potty training over with when a funny glitch appeared. Image hosted by Photobucket.com Image hosted by Photobucket.com Moana wasn't sitting on the potty, but she was situated inside of Remington, somehow, but she wasn't at all affected by it and was successfully potty trained. He even went on to finish teaching Moana to walk with no problems. Image hosted by Photobucket.com The next day was the same as the day before - Remington keeping Moana happy while Leilani focused on going to work and bringing in the money now that she was the money maker. Remington made sure to play with and cuddle Moana Image hosted by Photobucket.com and worked on her final skill of talking. Image hosted by Photobucket.com Moana's first word - highchair. After all that teaching, she was so tired Remington put her to bed for her nap while all the kids were coming home from school. Image hosted by Photobucket.com While Noelle worked on her homework, Brady was spending time with Ivy who he brought home from school and found himself being admired. Image hosted by Photobucket.com It was about that time that Brady felt he needed a makeover and went to the bathroom to see what he could do. Image hosted by Photobucket.com I'm just trying to do anything to not make his nose stand out so much! I might just have to deal with it because you really can't hide it. So while Brady was off in the bathroom, Ricky and Ivy are having a conversation in the living room. "Hey, Ricky, pull my finger!" Image hosted by Photobucket.com Meanwhile, Brady was *still* in the bathroom checking himself out and liking his new image. Image hosted by Photobucket.com And look who I caught out front reading the paper! Image hosted by Photobucket.com She came and left so quick that I didn't have time to get anyone out to greet her and have her stick around. And here's a cute shot I got of Remington and Moana. Image hosted by Photobucket.com And Brady, still admiring himself decides to go on the internet to brag about his new look to anyone that would listen. Could this kid love his look any more? Image hosted by Photobucket.com The next day is Brady's birthday as he transitions into adulthood, but first a birthday noogie. Image hosted by Photobucket.com And one last A+ as a teenager with no homework ever again. Image hosted by Photobucket.com And now what we've all been waiting for. Brady's birthday cake and what this awkward teenager looks like as an adult. Will his face grow into his nose? Will he look the same and be an awkward adult? But first, the typical expression associated with a birthday cake. Image hosted by Photobucket.com Image hosted by Photobucket.com And now here is the birthday boy doing what we've been waiting so long for him to do. Before the transition Image hosted by Photobucket.com Image hosted by Photobucket.com And the moment of truth, Brady is an adult. Image hosted by Photobucket.com Image hosted by Photobucket.com Well, here's hoping the next generation doesn't get his nose.
