So, here we are with all the goals complete except for our heir. The last few days always seem to drag by for me, so hopefully this post doesn't drag by too.
Brynn: "Aw thanks mom.. I'm trying to sleep here!"
A nice family meal.
Group gardening with Dad.
Brynn doing her homework. She almost always completes her extra credit, too. The focusing lamps are strong in this house!
Whenever Brynn is doing her homework, I try to speed it up with dad helping her out. Leaves more time for her to keep her needs up.
Hollie apparently thought she had more time to get to bed, and passed out.
Christian out on the dark porch, using the new treadmill.
Oh, no... Hollie!
I've never seen an alien grave before.. Have you? Very cool. It just occurred to me that Hollie spent her entire life in disguise. Because she wasn't controllable, she never once came out of disguise so we could see what she really looked like!
Look who else is an elder!
Apparently leftovers aren't good enough for Brynn. She even managed to not set herself on fire.
And yes, she even ate a serving of her "grilled friuts". I put the rest away for her.
Wait.. what? Leave sugar skull offering?? Umm.. Okay..
Let's try it.
... Interesting ...
.. so I go hunting around the neighborhood.. and find this colorful teen.
Turns out you have to be friends to get the skull.. so Christian makes nice with Conner (the dressed up teen).
Success!
What?
A new collection. Interesting. Must be a holiday thing. I won't have time to get all of them on this house, but we can get a couple. Later on I find out that the gravestone offering doesn't work every time, which is a bummer.
Aha! Finally! Real proof that someone used the pool! And even better, she didn't drown. 🙂 *happy dance*
Well, look who's visiting.
The family is back together again. At least temporarily.
Yay for Brynn!!
Since working out is too dangerous, this is what Christian is reduced to... working on Logic. I have him play a few games with Brynn when she's not busy, too.
Wonder what she's doing on the computer?
... I had no idea they could do that autonomously... Clearly they can't get their postcards and stuff.. but still very interesting.
What a pretty dress! We got another skull out of this teen.
Family breakfast... while Brynn is SUPPOSED to be in school.
So, since she's home, we make her work on the garden with is. I like this size of garden, because the free services daily gardener can keep up with it without Christian having to do anything other than harvest and sell the proceeds.
Woohoo!
Wait.. that's an achievement? Hahaha! Nice one, EA.
Bye Hollie. I just wanted to get a shot of her "poofing".. don't mind the walls cutaway.
Look who else is a day of the dead teen? Remember the kid that Brynn used to invite over after school? Yep! That's Drake all grown up. We invite him over for a group swimming party. He and Brynn seem to get along well. Which is good for Brynn.. maybe she has love prospects!
Helping Brynn with homework so she doesn't spend so much time on it, since she's already at the "A" level.
Welcome back, Hollie!
I guess even Grimm catches logs out of the pond... too funny.
And... it's that time!
Now time to double-check on the rest of our goals:
The house is definitely worth more than 40k, and has two bedrooms one bathroom as required.
Our five unique essences: Inspired, Playful, Energized, Confident, and Flirty.
Christian's final skill tally. We got both the required fishing and gardening, as well as handiness.
Angling Ace completed.
Leftover cash and final mood.
Where Christian ended up. I cut that one close!
And lastly, the house is uploaded under #thrallsdrifter and #drifterchallenge. I even remembered to do this before leaving the house this time!

Aww, RIP Hollie 🙁 That whole sugar skull thing is really cool! I've never seen the woohoo with a ghost achievement lol. I'm wondering if the penpal thing (autonomously) is new. It happened to me for the first time last week. Congratulations on finishing house 003!!
Thanks!
So many great moments. Never seen the ghost woo-hoo achievement or knew they could autonomously get pen pals or seen an alien Headstone! Too cool. Makes me want to fire up my game.
I agree @ the great moments. House 3 was a lot of firsts for me. I've learned so much by playing Drifter saves!
