Consuelo Barillas --Chapter 12 -Wow time passes fast.

Consuelo (44) her wife Maura (44)
Her daughter: Jacquelyn and her wife Opal (21)
Narrated by Consuelo

Maura and I were sitting in bed wondering how did time pass so fast. These few months have been filled with so much that it has left us both spent.

First off we received the great news that our daughter Shaila was getting married. We were wondering when Weldon and her were getting hitched. Jacquelyn was happy that her sister was engaged.

We all had dinner to celebrate their engagement. Weldon could not stop talking about the great news.

I guess Jacquelyn could not keep her news quiet anymore. Turns out that she was three months pregnant and that left all of us speechless. Why ? Sure she's married but my daughter is 21 with no job other than helping me in the store. Her wife is also job less but one of them need a job and soon.

A surprise that really hit me is that my wife's ex girlfriend Tammy actually came to talk to me. She told me that she was leaving Viramontes because she was still in love with Maura. She had bumped into her a while back and could not stop thinking about her. I was glad to see her go. I am sure Maura loves only me.

Jaquelyn's pregnancy passed without any new news and before we knew it my granddaughter Hellen was born. She is so cute and oddly enough looks like Maura to me.

Amarilis Barillas Chapter 12-- He did what?

Amarilis (44), her live in girlfriend Meadow (44)
Their kids (who are home) Arthur (14), triplets: Julieta, Ramon and Raquel (6)
Narrated by Meadow.

Amarilis is obsessed about her little garden. I know she gets it from my father-in-law Oscar, may he rest in peace. She is always out there and Im glad that she involves the kids in this activity.

Arthur announced that he officially has a boyfriend. I still can not believe that he is "dating". I think he's too young but Amarilis allowed it and so I did as well. Don't think I am not keeping my eye on them.

We repainted the house and decided to have an outdoor party to celebrate. Amarilis, Brandi, Melody (my niece) and I decided to lay out and get some much needed sun.

Amarilis got a little too much because she turned beat red. I felt sorry for her when Raquel asked her to dance. My poor Amarilis winced with every move.

Meanwhile Debbie was acting nice towards Mary. Maybe it could be that Debbie was competing with Alfredo's husband Merrill. Im glad that we finally have some peace in this family.

While we were inside having fun these two decided to take a dip in the sauna. Don't worry as soon as I spotted this I called them both inside.

I have to admit its been a while since we both had a smustle dance off. We had so much fun dancing that the young ones even decided to join in.

Amarilis and her brother Ian were talking very secretively. To my surprise Amarilis told me that Ian was planning on breaking up with Mary. Aparently he's been cheating on her and he wants an out. I could only respond, "he did what?" when she told me.

I felt so bad when I saw Mary after Amarilis told me. Everytime that Mary talked to me I felt so bad for her. Its awful knowing that Ian would treat her so bad. My brother-in-law needs someone to talk him straight!

Oscar Simon II Chapter 12--Old place versus new.

Oscar Simon II (44) and his wife Brandi (44)
Narrated by Brandi

Simon and I have been living a carefree life since our last child left the nest. I have to admit that I love coming home for our lunch adventures. As much as we love being carefree we are also noticing that we have an empty nest.

I started looking at our finances and we have finally paid down some debt.We used to owe close to hundred thousand and now we owe $53,710. Now we can focus on fixing our vacation home.

I talked to Oscar and he thought it was a great idea to fix up the vacation home. We both got some vacation time and we needed to get away.

Its weird how fast we can get things ready to go back to twikki island.

Once we got there we met with an architect and we are finally fixing our vacation house. We are planning on adding an extra room on the second floor. This will allow both of our kids to come and spend vacation with us.

For some reason Simon asked what I thought about us renewing our vows. I was a little stunned because I actually didnt think about it. These are the times that I am happy how romantic my husband is.

Aaron Barillas Chapter 4- the more we grow.

Aaron (24) his wife Heather (25)
Their children: Demetrieus, Minor, Sebastian, Sara (quads 8) and twins Carmen and Esteban (2)

We are finally settling into our new home. This means that we are trying to get everyone used to our new house and it is not easy. Dinner time around here can be a little hectic. So far everything is going smoothly.

I have managed to get our crops going. Its not easy task so I even hired three employees to help me maintain and harvest my crops. Heather was against the idea but so far so good.

Because I am so busy with the harvesting this leaves Heather alone with the household chores. She has hinted more than once that she is too busy with the twins to keep going at this pace.

I admit that the twins do keep her busy but we are also trying to establish ourselves and get rid of our debt. Schooling for the quads alone is 12,000 every two years and that is killing us.

All in all the harvest is going good and I did make a little over $6000. Not bad for the first year in our farming venture. I hope to add more plants and really get this farm up and running. Who knows maybe I will put a small vegetable stand and sell my produce.
Extra:

Yes all my sims who are farmers are turning into plantism sims. I am so happy I have Insimenator to get rid of this. I have no interest in playing these type of sims.

Isabel Barillas Chapter 4- Where are we going?

Isabel (24) her live in girlfriend Candance Perry (23)
Narrated by Isabel.


We have finally moved in together officially. I thought it would be great living together but we both noticed how tiny my apartment really is. Candice's graduation from college allowed her to network and get a job as a Crime Scene investigator. With a new job we began discussing moving into a new apartment or home together.

We found this new apartment complex that offered spacious apartments for rent. Candance persuaded me to agree on renting a three story apartment. I thought it was a little too big but Candance said there is no such thing as too much space. Rent was for this apartment was close to $4000. With her job and mine combined we should be fine. After semi-settling in we invited my parents over for lunch.

Turns out my mom Amarilis is at home trying to fight the flu. My mom Meadow came and she was excited to see our apartment. The moment we were alone she also expressed concern that the apartment was way too big for us. She even asked if we were pregnant. I am beginning to think she may be right.

I came home one day and heard Candance sobbing. Our apartment was still empty so her sobs echoed loudly. She just blurted out that she was fired from her job due to lack of experience. I could not believe my ears! With this news I did not know how in the world we could afford the rent for this apartment.

After a few weeks of not being able to find a job I hugged Candance and told her we needed to move desperately. She stared crying and said she felt like she failed me. Thank goodness the landlord let us lease another smaller apartment on the same lot. I just hope that Candance is able to find another job sooner rather than later.

Debbie King (ex of Ian Barillas)

Debbie King was married to Ian Barillas but now is finally a happy divorcee.


Debbie has finally decided to let her anger towards men go. Now that she is 45 she has decided that its time to test the dating waters. She went out on dates but for once she decide to go with an older man. His name is Marcel Go.
