No particularly significant moments happened for a while, but here’s a few random moments that I took photos of for various reasons.
First of all, here’s Rachel practicing the piano (all my sims seem to love doing that, there’s barely a moment goes by when one of them isn’t playing it, perhaps I should buy them another), which her grandparents don’t seem to be enjoying too much. I love the pained expression on Jack’s face here.

Here’s the way my scorecard looks right now:
Generations (1 point per generation): 4
Family Net Worth (1 point per 100k, rounded up: 2 ($134,727)
Platinum Graves (1 point per grave): 1
Family Friends (1/3 point per friend, rounded down): 1 (5)
Impossible Wants (1 point per want): 0
Shrink Visits (-1 point per visit): 1 (Sarah)
Inter-bred Births (-2 points per birth): 0
Career Reward Objects (2 points for all 10): 0 (I have Business, Slacker, Athletic and Military rewards)
NPC’s In Bloodline (1 point for each type): 2 (Lucy Hanby: Maid, Lauren Reeves: Pizza Delivery)
Ghosts (1 point per type): 2 (Sarah: blue, Benjamin: white)
Visitor Deaths (-2 points per death): 0
Alien Births (1 point per birth): 0
10th Generation Twins (2 points if 10th generation birth is twins): 0
Social Bunny Romance (3 points if two social bunnies have romantic interactions): 0
which all adds up to a total of 11 points. Which probably isn’t all that great.

First up, here’s my second generation heir, Jack Hanby. Jack is a Family sim, and a retired Criminal Mastermind.

There’s quite a lot to tell, and no pictures to tell it with, so be warned, this is going to be wordy.
