These are the stories of the citizens of Knowlton - A Sims 2 Prosperity Challenge. If you love it, if you hate it, if you saw something you wanted to talk about, PLEASE leave comments. I'm a sad pathetic human, and I live for comments.

For those of you not familiar with what a Prosperity Challenge is, it's a Sims 2 Challenge in which the main focus is to build a prosperous community from scratch. There are a few catches though, everything, including your starting families are determined by the role of a dice (or in my case a randomizer). For the complete rules and setup you have two options the Yahoo! Group or the BBS thread at the official site.

The quick low down on the newly created Knowlton; Knowlton is completely deserted. It's set out in a grid, so at some point in the past it may have even been a city, but that may have been hundreds of years ago, because other than roads for miles around all you see is grass plains. Four daring families have decided (okay have been forced) to make a new start here. So come meet these daring folks, hear their stories, and wish them luck folks, they're going to need it!

Week 5 - Round 9 - Belleosi Home



Still no jobs in Art, huh? I was really tempted by the job in Education because I love that bookshelf, but it doesn't pay that great, which won't help Jasmine with her LTW.

The girls are enjoying their last day as a couple before the become a family. Samantha is back in her new favorite place enjoying the bubbles...

and Jasmine is painting up a storm, as always.

A nice quiet cup of coffee in the morning. I can't remember the last time I got to enjoy the first cup of coffee in silence.

Samantha's been given the task of starting the family garden. Jasmine's too busy trying to earn lots of money.

She quickly earned her bronze badge.

Then she went into labour. Hmm, birth in a green house. Rather appropriate, don't you think?

Welcome to the world little Bethany Belleosi. Bethany seems to look just like Jasmine.

Jasmine is thrilled to discover that her daughter has been born while she's at work. After all, she needs someone to leave all this to one day. We won't tell her that this isn't a matriarchy. The girls will have to try again, although I'm initiated a 3 children limit on all non-family sims.

Poor Bethany, she's the only baby born since the installation of Seasons who won't have the benefit of a snapdragon. The poor darling cries for absolutely no reason.

Samantha spends most of her time in the garden, and it shows.

She also has to tend to all these stupid flowers now. As soon as she has her gold badge we'll hire a gardener to help out. That or we need a hack that tells the gardener to tend to landscaping plants, not garden plants.

Thank god it's Kendal! I was really worried that they'd get Calista.

Jasmine did eventually get a job in the Art track as a Comic Book Stenciler. Have a good day at work ladies!

I guess you both had a good day at work, huh?

Happy Birthday dear Bethany!

I swear, Samantha's the one that carried her, but Jasmine is always the first to run to her if she needs something. Sam's not even interested in her birthday, she'd rather stare at the painting. This is the woman who kept bugging me for a baby.

Yep, new outfit! I love toddler skilling in autumn! There was a slight glitch though. Bethany has the little brown bear pajamas, but when I went to give her the matching bear hood for her pajama hair it wasn't there. Just the grey bear, the badger, and the panda. It showed up fine in everyday hair, so why isn't it available for her pajamas?

Oh for the love of... Can't you see that she's trying to teach your granddaughter how to walk?

Hey! She's trying to clean up the house!
(Since Dad died by flies he gets very upset when the house is a mess)

He won't even let her energize. Apparently the energizer glitch does not extend to ghosts.

He won't even let Jasmine feed her daughter in peace.

Gah! I know better than to let them paint when a ghost is roaming, but it's like 5:45, I thought she might make it.
