Mendez, Samson and Sommers

There are three households called Mendez these days. Russell and Regina moved to a small house together, while Pablo took most his wife's money and moved to a house of his own.

But first up is Dominic, Russell and Regina's son, with his wife Colleen (née Boucher) and their son Raoul.
Colleen wants to be a Martial Arts Master, while Dominic dreams of a Bottomless Nectar Cellar.

They will travel to China first, since that wish seems to be more complicated - involving a lot of tournaments and training.


Colleen managed to get up to level 5 in martial arts. She also participated in a tournament, but lost twice in a row. She is up to balsawood boards now, though.


Dominic and Raoul did a lot of fishing, and Colleen also harvested a lot of plants. She needs the gardening skill for her job (in science) and Dominic could use her help once he gets around to his own wish of becoming a nectar maker. For now he is in business, because it's no use being a nectar maker when you don't even have a nectar machine.

Pablo does have a nectar machine. He took it when he left the Harrell household. So far he hasn't done anything with it, though - he's got so much money that he really doesn't need to work... His lifetime wish hasn't got a chance, since there apparently aren't any 'rich' Sims in town. He might have to look abroad for a new victim.

The third Mendez family are Russel and Regina. Regina is almost at level 5 of her law enforcement career, so it looks as if she's not going to get to the top before she retires.

Russell is working on his chess ranking.


This round he worked himself up from level 2 to level 3, but it took a lot of work - at this rate he'll be almost dead before he gets there.

Blake Samson isn't going very fast either, but fortunately he's only just about to become adult, so he does have time. He wants to be the Leader of the Free World, and so far managed to work himself up to campaign intern (level 3). He's been working on his charisma.

Melanie, the wannabee Fashion Phenomenon, has been giving make-overs to random friends and relatives. She's now a 'polka dot specialist'.

This very weekend Lori had her birthday, too - giving her mother a good excuse to give her a make-over as well. 



That make-over and a sketch or two was enough to make Melanie a 'houdstooth soothsayer'  - level 4. At this rate she'll get there without too many boring make-over jobs to do. (CAS is murder on this computer!)

Lori got herself a job as a Spa Specialist.

And lastly, the Sommers family. Christopher still lives with his parents, Terra and Jake. Jake is an elder now, and has already achieved his wish of Culinary Librarian. Terra is at level 8 in her career, but she chose the wrong branch for her lifetime wish.

She might yet finish that career branch, even though it won't do her much good.


Christopher wants to be a Scientific Specialist. To do so, he needs to max the science skill and get to the top of either the science, the business or the medical career. He chose medical and is now a paramedic (level 3).

Just for fun, here's a random wet raccoon in the middle of the main road in town.
