Our two teen girls in the house. Both smart AND beautiful--look out, guys of Strangetown! 

Green, reading, so he can be just like his daddy. 

Ice with his killer smile, picking the money trees. 

Orchid jumping into the pool. "Look at meeeee!" 

Green sleeping. Very cute. 

A weird broken object which I can't identify. Maybe one of the ghosts did this? I had someone clean it up, whatever it was. 

We'll close this update with some more random shots. Here's Sky in an invisible Energizer. 

They spend hours in the hot tub, innocently of course, just talking, although Darren will be glad when Orchid officially becomes an adult! 

Orchid is trying to work on a relationship of her own, getting to know the gardener, Darren Wood, a little better. 

Orchid talks to Justine Smith at the party: "So, you're dating my brother, Denim, right? You better not break his heart!" 

After a dip in the pool, Sky has a piece of her birthday cake. 

Here's a side shot of Sky in her new clothes. (I have no idea why these pictures always happen in the bathroom!) 

Sky is MUCH happier after a change of clothes. She is a very pretty alien teen, and is looking forward to Neville Subject's birthday to happen, so she can go for that first kiss! 

She feels like she looks pretty hot, too! There's her happy father behind the cake. I think he must have picked out her birthday outfit. Grey IS pretty clueless about such things. 

Sky, despite her hideously unmatching clothes, feels pretty good about her decision to follow in the family's footsteps and go after Knowledge in her life! (I rolled ANOTHER natural two!) 

We'll find out soon! 

Here she wonders what her aspiration will be. Will she follow the route her dad, uncle, and cousins took and become a Knowledge Sim, or aspire for something completely different? 

But we've gotten a little ahead of ourselves! Here is Sky at her party before blowing out the candles. 

Or when he started talking to a volleyball with a face painted on it during Sky's birthday party. The family thinks they'll wait until Cyan starts feeling a little better before having parties again. 

However, his family worries about him a little when he "fixes" an invisible piano. 

For whatever reason, this treatment worked and Cyan was able to go about his normal life again. 

. . . and made him cluck like a chicken. 

He helped Cyan out of his catatonic state . . .  

Luckily, a therapist dropped by, seemingly out of nowhere. 

He made a horrible decision at work and now everyone in the community hates him, costing Cyan TWO charisma points! Losing his hard earned skills was just too much for the fragile Cyan, especially with Ice now not only having been given an alien baby before him, but now being more perfectly skilled than him!
