Chapter 76

A Parsons pet sitting where they shouldn't be? Never.

Makayla: "You're quite a savage for eating clam chowder for breakfast instead of the omelettes."

Nibbles: "Y'all should have eaten these pancakes instead. Don't worry, I'll do it for you."
You nosedived into that butter.

I love this painting by Makayla!

Eva: "Haha! Daddy, you're bad at chess!"
Joey: "Stop that."

Ally: "I bet I'm better at chess than daddy."

Jonah: "Everyone is!"

Joey: "How dare you. I'm beyond outnumbered here."

Hugs!

Eva: "I want a hug."

Joey: "It's about that time again."

What time?
Joey: "Time to fertilise."

Joey purchased some seed packets. He can't plant these until the snow clears up, but his garden is growing more and more, no pun intended.

Townie: "You dumb cat! Don't come near me again!"

Milo: "Oh, you've messed up now. My craziest owner just heard you."

Makayla: "What did you just say to my cat?"

Townie: "Your cat is dumb! Just like you!"
Makayla: "I'd rather be dumb than ugly like you!"

Townie: "That doesn't even make sense! Who would choose beauty over brains?"
Makayla: "Anyone who's desperate enough not to look like you."

Makayla: "Anyway, don't yell at my cat ever again!"

Makayla: "I MAY BE COLD AS HECK, BUT I WILL BEAT YOUR BUTT ONCE I WARM UP!"

Makayla: "Now that I have my cold weather outfit on, bring it on!"

Townie: "Let go of my hair!"

Makayla: "Ow!"

Jade: "Zayn! Get out here! Mom's in a fight!"

Jade: "Go mom!"

Jade: "You think mom's gonna win?"
Zayn: "Not a chance."

Makayla: "Uh... where am I?"
Makayla got her butt kicked.

Zayn: "That was a good match."
Jade: "Rematch?"

Townie: "I beat her butt. I'll continue yelling at annoying cats."

Milo: "Excus you?"

After that boxing match, the kids decided to play in the snow.

Jade: "I have an idea. Snowball fight?"

Zayn: "Hey! Haven't there been enough fights today?"

Jade: "Zayn! Come back! I can't beat Finn on my own!"

Finn: "You're going DOWN!"

Jade: "Haha! You missed! Try again, loser!"

Jade: "OWW!"

Finn: "Hahahahaha! You asked for it!"

Jade: "I will get you."

Reece: "Hey, guys!"

Finn: "Well, well, well. If it isn't my favorite uncle."
Reece: "I'm your only uncle."

Makayla painted a masterpiece. Only a few more to go until she completes the 'Painter Extraordinaire' aspiration.

Eva aged up into a child!

So did Jonah!

I love her hair!

Jonah is still his mommy's twin.

These bunk beds save a lot of room.

Ally: "I want to sleep on the bunk bed."

Everyone found out that Nibbles ate part of their pancakes.

That's a lot of purple.

Joey: "I'm very outnumbered."

Jade: "Hands up if you love purple hair!"

Eva: "Steal one of my pancakes again, Jonah, and I'll stab you with this fork."

When Joey's not gardening, he's reading a gardening skill book.

Eva: "I can finally swing on the swings!"

It's New Year's Eve time! 🎊🎉🥳

Two artists.

Jonah: "Be careful, Finn. Eva is giving you the "I'm gonna stab you with a fork" look."
Finn: "Say what?"

Another masterpiece by Makayla.

And another one.

Jade made these adorable New Year's decorations!

Why have none of the kids got the memo that the Parsons and skating don't mix?

Jonah: "We'll be fiiine."

Zayn: "I'm glad I avoided that mistake today."

This dragon is everyone's BFF.

Another masterpiece.

Not this truck toy again.
Zayn: "Ah, yes. It has returned."

Makayla: "Can I stop painting now?"
Not yet.

Can y'all go to the dining table?

Finn: "Did you guys hear something?"
Jade: "Nope."

Makayla's final masterpiece that she needed! She has completed the 'Painter Extraordinaire' aspiration!

Makayla: "I've been painting all day. I'm literally exhausted."

Zayn aged up into a teen!

He looks a lot like Joey.

Joey aged up into an adult!

So did Makayla!

Joey: "I don't like this."

Makayla: "Me either. My back already hurts."
