The Carnes 2.0


Yay, finally time to start generation two! It was decided that Nicole would be the heir, so Natalie and Nadine got married and moved out. Nicole got engaged to Liam (I can never remember his last name though it won’t matter for very much longer), Nikki and Nathan aged into elder and then Nathan tragically died. Now let’s get this started!

I made a little wedding area in the park, just perfect for Nicole and Liam’s wedding!

Lol I guess I like red dresses XD

Time to get married! That ponytail really doesn’t work with a wedding dress lol. Such a pretty place for a wedding <33

They were clearly meant for each other.

 The family all came out for the wedding. Minus Erick, I don’t know what happened to him. Are he and Nadine having issues???

Exchanging rings.

 You may now…hug the bride?

 Lol it’s that sketchy bartender who was hitting on Nicole during Nadine’s wedding! He’s not happy that Nicole chose Liam and not him. That's what you get for being a creep!

 The cake has been cut!

 Nikki: All my babies are grown up and married. I wish Nathan could have been here to see Nicole get married. *sniff*

 Natalie: Darius, not in public *giggles*

Nadine, it’s not polite to stare, geez!

 It’s the case of the invisible plate!

 Feeding each other invisible cake, so cute. Or, well, it would be cute if you could actually see the cake.

 It looks like Natalie may harbour a little resentment after all.

 I think somebody’s been drinking.

 Yup, definitely been enjoying the open bar.

 Liam: I love you sweetie *goes in for a kiss*
Nicole: So drunk

 Seriously?! Why do people always die at my weddings???

Nicole: Oh I like that picture!
Nikki: yeah it really turned out well!

Nadine was really shaken up by the lady’s death.

 Weddings exhaust Nikki.

 Nicole: I know it was upsetting to see that lady died but she was old and it looked like she lived a nice, long life.

 Nicole: How’s married life going for you? Are you liking it?
Nadine: Yeah it’s nice, we’re trying to save up and buy a house right now.

Still feeling down, Nadine waved goodbye. 

 Enjoying their wedding night lol.

 It is pretty awkward to be newlyweds and living with your mother-in-law but I wanted them to stay in this house and I wanted Nikki to stay with them for the rest of her life. 

Nicole: Ugh I don’t feel very well. I guess I ate something bad. 

Nicole: Hey! I have something to tell you!
Liam: Seriously? A little privacy please!

Nicole: I’m pregnant!

 Liam: You couldn’t have waited until I was off the toilet to tell me this?

Don’t let him fool you, he really is happy he’s going to be a father.


I gave him a makeover since I wasn’t loving what he moved in wearing.

 I decided that Liam would be the one to go off and work and Nicole will stay at home with the kids. Since her Aspiration is to garden, and gardening is pretty much a full time job in this game, she can stay home and do that all day.

 One of Nikki’s tasks is to write songs, but she’ll sit there playing her guitar until she pees herself and still doesn’t finish a song. I guess it’s a game glitch? I don’t know but with the way things are going I’m just going to give up on this aspiration if she’s not going to be able to write songs.

 Ugh, I hate how weird his skintone looks. Like, with those weird lines all over it, what the heck?! I hate it, it looks horrible. I don’t know if it’s just him or if all the dark skintones are going to look like this. If all the dark skintones look so weird I may have to break down and download some default replacements because I really hate how awful it looks. None of my white sims look like that >.<

Cooking is really not her thing. 

 Nicole and Liam headed off to Granite Falls for a honeymoon and some time alone as a couple before the kids start coming.

 Lol of course he brought a book. You’re on your honeymoon dude, go have fun with your wife!

 Finding more treasures for their growing collection!

The mosquitoes were driving Nicole crazy so she learnt how to make homemade bug spray.

Nicole: Much better!

 Practicing her horseshoe game.

 Yeah she sucks at it lol

 Fresh fish for dinner? Maybe, though I wouldn’t count on it.

It’s a woodpecker!

Making friends!

 Such a tiny, old TV! I’m surprised they even have cable out in the mountains. Must be nice.

 To my shock and surprise Liam managed to actually catch something so it’s grilled fish for dinner tonight!

 A nice, quiet dinner with just the two of them!

 Nicole don’t die D:

 Nicole: Aaaahhhhhhh!
Nooo, you can’t die! Not on your honeymoon!

 Nicole: get it off get it off get it off!

Liam: Nicole, what’s going on over there? You okay honey?
Nicole: Um, yup, everything’s fine. Nothing happening over here. Heh. Owwww!

'Bout gave me a heart attack! Geez girl you gotta be more careful!

There we go, much better!

 Liam finally came over to join her, completely unaware that his wife caught on fire. At least Nicole seems no worse for the wear. 
 Liam: They were exploring the house and all of a sudden, the doors slammed shut and they realized they were locked in.
Nicole: Oh really.

She’s not very impressed by Liam’s attempt to tell a scary story.

 Liam: The lights went off and they heard the creaking of the floor as something crept closer and closer to them.

 Liam: They disappeared and nobody ever heard from them again. Though it’s said that you can see strange figures if you ever look up at the windows.
Nicole: I’m getting really sleepy, dear.

 Liam: Okay, let me put out the fire and we can go inside.
Nicole: Then we can check out the bed ;)

 ROFL, well I guess this is how you know you’re comfortable with each other.

They’re enjoying their honeymoon.

Butterflies!

 Poor thing’s having such a hard time being pregnant in the woods. She didn’t quite make it to the bathroom in time and ended up peeing herself.

 She was so embarrassed that she ran home and hid in the bathtub. And apparently tried to drown herself. Don’t do it Nicole!

 Catching fish! I haven’t done much with the fishing skill so far in TS4 but at least they’ll have fresh fish for lunch.

 Stupid flies!
 This could only mean one thing…

 Nicole’s in labour!

 Poor thing is so miserable. I wasn’t sure what to do, I was waiting to see if the game would send her home or what would happen but nothing did. I figured she probably couldn’t deliver the babies while on vacation so I ended up just sending her home. 

 As soon as they got home, this happened D:

 Liam: No, please Mr. Grim, please don’t take her! Her first grandchild is about to be born, please let her live to see this!

 Grim: No, her soul is mine! Mwuahaha!

Liam: *defeated*

Okay, you’ve got her, why are you still sticking around?

 Well that’s a bit terrifying. Especially since she’s still stuck in labour with no signs of baby.

Nicole: *is totally oblivious*

 Liam: Um, hi?

Nicole had gotten up by this time, obviously. 

Liam: Um, would you like a drink?
Grimm: No, no that’s okay.

Grim is now listed under Liam’s friends list as an acquaintance. I don’t think that’s a friend you really want to have… Or maybe it is a good thing to be friends with the Grim Reaper.

 Nicole’s labour still wasn’t progressing so I realized that I had the option to send her to the hospital (this is unrelated to the Get To Work hospital option, this was before GTW came out) so I did that.

 Confetti yay!

 And yet another girl born to the Carnes. I typically prefer playing girls for some reason but geez, this bloodline needs some boys! Her name is Brittany.


I gave her a nice girly bedroom lol

Okay, that’s it for now, thanks for reading! I’m slowly getting caught up, just one or two more posts to go! Soon GTW will make its appearance ;)

  1. I can't believe Nicole caught on fire! Really glad she didn't die. Lots of death in this one though. :(
