Art and science, alchemy and unicorns...

Yue Xiulan Adams is still working on her goal of becoming a 'descendant of DaVinci'. Initially she focused on sculpting and painting.

Except when she goes out skating, of course. (Just because the picture is pretty...)

However, she didn't quite forget about science and inventions.

Meanwhile her father-in-law has used up all his happiness points to get this climatron. He spends a few days wreaking havoc with Winchester's weather, and then grows bored of the new toy, which is now just taking up space in the yard...

Another thing taking up space in the yard is the chickens. And Dexter can't help getting annoyed at one particular fowl: Charles the Evil Chicken. They even get into a fight.

Poor Dexter actually lost!!

Roger Adams went to the prom with Sheila (who is, I think his second cousin once removed).

Shawn found himself a genie in a lamp, but the game crashed and the next time he went into the catacombs, there was no lamp.

So I guess he only "dreamed of a genie"? Groan!!

Across town the Bernard twins were seen building a snowman.

Tracie Bernard actually started dating Raoul Mendez (her second cousin). 

Yves Bernard is now a world-renowned surgeon, and ready to retire to work on his painting and music - which is really where his heart lies.

In the meantime the graduation gnomes are stacking up in the Fox household.

Bryan Fox got his third university degree, so he's now officially a Major Master. He's still working in the video games industry, of course.

Bryan and Susannah have two children now: Carlton and Alexandra. Neither of them are blond like their parents.

Carlton looks more like his mother, while Alexandra has some of her father's more noticeable facial features.

In the Kim household, Huan Chao has decided to take up ghost hunting - his private investigator cases didn't 'stick' and he was tired of not getting proper credit for them. (This is a wish that doesn't work on a rotation. The career would probably work, though - I'll try that later.)

It takes a lot of studying to get anywhere in this career - but maxing out logic does gain you a few levels and some credit with the city council.

He still gets himself into sticky situations!

Meanwhile his wife Bianca travels to Egypt to find herself twenty small animals. She's not going to keep any of them, but she just wants to have the thrill of holding them.

It took a three-day vacation to accomplish this goal. Having a collection helper (on loan from her father-in-law) did help, of course.

After Bianca gets home, she gets pregnant again. This time she has twin girls, Bernadette and Christal.

Wu Kim is still working on her One Sim Band wish. The recording studio is a good place to practice, even if Angelina Bundy is being creepy.

Maybe they're recording a Halloween song together?

In the meantime Wu's daughter Gillian is working on her alchemy skills.

She gets herself a flying vacuum as one of her lifetime rewards. She zooms around town on it for a while, but eventually decides it looks a bit silly.

She mainly uses her skills to make job booster potions, to help Trevor get ahead in his career.

Trevor doesn't seem to be thrilled with this alternative to hard drugs - but it's undeniable that he wouldn't have gotten far in his career without them. He's incredibly lazy.

Timothy Thao is stilly trying to persuade Bella Horse, the local unicorn, to move in with his family.

Bella told him that she'd consider moving in with him if he befriended three pets, so that's what he decides to do. Milo is the third, and it took Timothy a while to even find him when the adoption worker dropped him off...

And sure enough, Bella now deems him 'worthy', and decides to become part of his household. Thus fulfilling both Timothy's wish, and that of his wife Aisha.

So that's another wish off the list.
