And more Adams

In the meantime I checked out the newer version of Winchester Farming, which came out while I was fixing this (base game) version. The new version has more lots for the recent EPs.
However, many of the houses that I love, including the Adams house and the military compound with its cute little houses are gone. 
I'm not all that interested in having cat jungles and dog parks, but I did save all the lots that I really like, though, so this Winchester will have some changes, too.

For now, the "other Adams' families" are still in their old lot, I would hate to abandon the old 'military compound' - the houses are just too cute.

The new version has the 3-in-1 rabbithole object instead of the town hall, so the baracks and the compound were no longer needed. I rather prefer the old small town hall 'shell' - if I want, I can always stick more than one rabbithole rug in the basement to make it 'multi-purpose'. The new buildings seem to be designed to fit in with the Appaloosa Plains rabbitholes.

Meanwhile, Michael has already grown into a child - I hardly played him as a toddler... Still, I don't really want to make the life span any longer, I do want to get ahead.

Michael now has a new loft bed, to save some floorspace in his little bedroom.

Meanwhile Angelina is still sculpting.

Ice sculptures are really cool. :)

This is the Adams/Bundy house.

Victor and Chen are working on renovating the old barracks. Since there is no active military on the island, they want to turn the building into a recording studio for their local news as well as Victor's music.

They have also decided to have a small movie theatre in the basement.

Adams

Brandon joined the business career - for want of any clear choice. Judith is back in the education career, like she used to be. I hope she'll do better now that the school is accessible again and they won't fire her for not showing up...

Gwendolyn Adams turned into a toddler with her mother's black hair. (The 300-day lifespan is a lot shorter than what I've grown used to playing my EA towns...)

She looks a lot like Michael - who is, I guess, her second cousin? (Michael's grandfather is Gwendolyn's Uncle Victor...)
Her parents try to teach her what they can - they don't have money for toddler books or toys, but at least they can teach her the basics.

Gwendolyn thinks the concept of 'talking' is much overrated.

She does like walking.

At some point, though, she does seem to realise it's a good thing to be able to tell her parents that she's really, really tired...

Dexter went on a field trip and brought home a poster:

And somewhere in the middle of the week his friend Yue Xiulan Kim calls to invite him to the prom. So I played the family longer than I should have, to give the kids a chance to go to the dance.

Yue seems to think the flowers are a bit off...

And Dexter doesn't quite understand how to get into the limo:

But he does have a good time - he's crownd Prom King and Yue wants to go steady and even kisses him... Awwww...

She's not the girlfriend I would have picked for him, but if he's happy, I'm happy. At least she has interesting genes.
(I was right about Yue Xiulan - she didn't age up as pretty as her sister.)
