Back to Monogamy

I guess I'm just in a festive mood, lately, what with the video, and now a wedding!

I decided to do away with the rather unusual arrangement Val had with seven husbands, and let her have just one man like simerica law requires. Early on, despite being married to Justin, Val showed a strong attraction to fellow Pleasure-Seeker Scott Broke-Bayfield. I took away all marriage flags, got Scott and Val engaged, and threw them a wedding. I'm reaaaaaaaaally glad it's over. It's hard playing a lot with that many sims on it!

The bride:










The groom:









The church is Emma's, from Illusions of Grandeur. I redecorated it, because I wanted a Christmassy wedding.

Pre-guests. Herb Oldie officiates.

The exchange of rings:







Kiss the bride









RECEPTION:

Josh, father of the groom, toasts first.







I love this pic!



Clink clink, kiss the bride, yada yada



Shep, brother of the groom, toasts second. Scott holds the invisible champagne flute.



And a hush falls over the crowd as they try to figure out who will do the next toast:



A little squeeze from the hubby.

Bon Voyage I: Ruining the Majestic Ruins of ... Something

My sims have been on a whirlwind of sightseeing and touring all over the place since Bon Voyage came out. Four trips, back-to-back-to-back-to-back!

As posted on my forum, here are the pics of the highlights, so far:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tiwikki Island, Day 6

Trying to cram everything in on the last couple days of vacation is EXHAUSTING. Joe took the kids on a fun-filled trip to the Majestic Ruins of Suchety Such.

Marking their territory:




---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

These photos speak for themselves.














---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

On to the Fruit Something or Suchety Such Lot! Someplace with really good fruit salad!



---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The boys are THRILLED!



---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The fruit salad here had better be reeeeeeeeeeally good...
Heavily-fermented, preferably.



---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Brandon entertains the locals with his peeing-in-the-road shtick.



---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Gets 'em every time.



---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Joshua realizes he's been suckered into a trip to the grocery store, in the name of "sight-seeing"



---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

All right, time to go. Ty is getting cranky. *rolls eyes



---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It's good to get back to the Brickstone Chateau for some much needed R&R from all the R'ing & R'ing.

Bon Voyage II: Roughing It in Three Lakes

Just to give you an idea of how they're faring by this point, this is pretty much the scene every time they arrive at a new destination:





---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And upon arriving back at the cabin:



---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So...Scott and Val tried out the tent woohoo.

Can you guess which tent they're in?



---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I wonder why the kids cheered sometimes and other times threw fits? What, exactly, are they judging?



---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ty can't see the forest through the tree.



---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"What's going on in here?"





---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Josh came out of his tent to cheer on his son. Brandon, Shawn, and Joshua came out of their tents and promptly passed out.




---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ty goes digging for treasure. Gotta find that map!



---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Time for some FUN!!!

Ty and Joshua go log-rolling








---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Don't mess with Joshua and Joe.



---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Roasting marshmallows

Brandon likes his marshmallow "well done"
