Last time at the Snowe house, Eustacia and Geraldine had birthdays; Thierry worked on his parenting skills; Lucy finished her second novel; and Virginia opened her art gallery on Main Street.

(I tried out a sharpen filter this around. I don't know, what do you guys think?)



Geraldine's bunny is kind of creepy-looking, but it also sort of reminds me of my favorite stuffed animal growing up... Oh well, she doesn't seem to mind!





There's new produce in at Lucy's Garage, which the customers are pleased to see, but the grocery side of things is keeping Lucy from making much headway on her first car restoration. The upside is, at least she looks cute in her coveralls!



Back at the house, Eustacia spends some quality time with a newly de-Thierry-faced Geraldine. In the background, you can see she's sneakily stuffed some pillows into her bed in preparation for her night's plans...


Girls' night with Ramona!


Thierry is completely fooled by her little ruse. Either that or he's just distracted by the sudden lack of his face on Geraldine. Hey, at least I let her keep your eyes! Don't get greedy.



Alas, as with Penelope before her, the town's teen patrol catches up to Eustacia as well. (Seriously, guys, you spend all your resources on this when you've got a master burglar still on the loose? Where are your priorities?)


Thierry gives her his best talking-to, but is it just me, or does she not look all that chastened?


What-EVER, Dad. God, you're so lame! *flounce*



After a long night at the garage, Lucy settles in for a bath, and Virginia utterly fails at cooking something other than grilled cheese. :(





Lucy is the only playful sim in the house, with 8 points to everyone else's 3, so sometimes it's up to her to make the conversations fun. Even if she's the only one who lols.


Wim continues to be much more successful in his romantic endeavors than his older brother.


Candles!


And how did our teenaged Yves turn out?


O.o Maybe he just needs a better haircut? 



Poor Yves-- he's got a total TS3 pudding face! Who is responsible for this? >:(





Eustacia lends a hand at her mom's gallery. In addition to working the register, she mans the espresso bar for hours. But just like krolowa_francji, I can't get anyone to order a drink. :(


Thierry decides to celebrate Geraldine's birthday while all the ladies are away at the gallery. Which, on the one hand, is a little bit inconsiderate, but on the other, does make for a calmer and less hectic celebration.


Geraldine's stats are 7/3/10/3/7. This is a very shy family. Lucy is the only one of them who has more than 3 Outgoing points, and she only has 4!




Yves just wanted to give his little sis a birthday hug, but she does not want! I think she's just cranky 'cause he woke her up from her nap.


Gurrrrl, I know the feeling.


But he makes it up to her with a hi-larious bedtime story.


Hmm, possible ancestor responsible for pudding face?


The kids' room gets rearranged once again, and Eustacia claims the far corner for her own.


Thierry's family sim instincts seem to have finally taken hold. Good for you, Thierry.


Ummmmmmmm.......... 


Thierry: "Hello, children of mine."


Thierry: "Daughter." *still noting distinct lack of Thierry-face*


Geraldine: "Father, do not be mad. Can you not simply enjoy my lovely bone structure and still very Thierry-ish features?"




Virginia: "PLUS FRIENDS."


Knowledge sims! (Yves rolled knowledge just like his sister.)




Virginia shares her love for grilled cheese with her youngest, redheadiest child.


Pudding and sisters. :|





Town driver, Alvin Macarevich, which is an excellent name. I've always wondered what he does after hours...


Thierry: making even poison ivy look suave.

That'll do it for this round! Up next is another peek at the Castaway kids!
