Chapter 161

Vanessa: "Ugh, all these toddlers are giving me a headache!"

Elodie has moved her bar into her room!

Elodie: "Now I can drink all the juice I want."

Say what?

Paisley: "Do you like my art work?"

Paisley, you're in big trouble!

Vanessa: "But she's trying to be a little artist."

Cooper: "Why wasn't I ever allowed to dump paint all over the floor?!"

Jaxton: "Who's in the mood for a crown roast?"

Jaxton: "If not, then that just means more for me."

Elodie: "Woah, woah, woah!"

Elodie: "I dropped them all! Can I at least save this last one?!"

Elodie: "Agh, I can't look. Did it break?"

Yep, all over the carpet.

Elodie: "Maybe it wasn't such a good idea to move the bar into my room after all."

Watch out, the toddler army is coming to eat all the salad!

Paisley: "I'm the leader of the toddler army!"

Jaxton: "This crown roast is really coming together!"

It looks delicious!

Erick: "Dad is really making us eat salad while he's making a crown roast?"

Astrid: "Salad is yummy!"

Jaxton: "Do I have to share the crown roast?"

Ralphie aged up into an adult! He's adorable!

Bomber aged up into an adult too! He will be adopted by a new family.

Ralphie is our dog heir!

Paisley: "Why can't we play in Cooper's room?"

Astrid: "Because we'll get in trouble, stupid head!"

Paisley: "That was not nice!"

Rosie: "Is anyone gonna eat this unfinished meal?"

The valerian plant evolved into perfect quality!

So did the trash plant!

And so did the pineapple plant! So many plants evolved at once.

Servo: "I'm so proud of my beautiful garden."

Why is this tree growing multiple emotional berries? These trees just love being annoying, don't they?

Erick: "I love being annoying too, I've been waking up all night for no reason and waking everyone else up with me."

Asparagus aged up into an elder!

Rosie: "You shall not pass."

Ralphie: "But I gotta pee."

Zhora: "It's following me again! Can't you see it?!"

Nope, you're just crazy.

Mackenzie: "She's not crazy, I've been seeing it too."

Because you're crazy too.

Jaxton: "You force me to bathe the dog and then let it shake water all over me."

Asparagus: "If you would fetch me a towel, we wouldn't have this problem."

Elodie is back at it again!

Elodie: "Prepare to be impressed."

Wow, that's impressive! It's flaming!

Elodie: "It's delicious, too!"

Zhora: "Tell Jax the next time he hogs the bathroom, I'm gonna beat him up."

Jaxton: "I can hear you, you know?"

Elodie made a pet drink for one of the pets!

Elodie: "Wait, it's not finished yet!"

Elodie: "It needs some finishing touches."

Elodie is getting very good at the mixology skill!

Elodie: "I know, right?"

Servo: "I'm so embarrassed, I stepped in dog poop in front of the neighbors!"

I love when you're embarrassed, you're so adorable!

Elodie: "Let's see if Cashie likes this drink."

Elodie: "Could y'all stop licking each other for a second?"

Apparently, Cashie has the ability to drink a drink that's on the floor while he's on the table.

Cashie: "I'm magical."

Cashie: "That tasted amazing!"

Elodie: "Thanks, Cashie! Looks like my skills are coming together nicely, even the cats like my drinks."

Paisley: "Can you tell us a story, grandma?"

Vanessa: "Of course! There once lived a crazy family..."

Astrid: "Not this story again! Someone get me outta here!"

Mackenzie: "I'll pretend this ball is the head of my enemies! AGH!"

Mackenzie: "Hey, it worked! Out of the park!"

Elodie is back at work again!

Elodie: "Can't you see how excited I am to be washing dishes again?"

Hopefully you'll be promoted again today and you won't have to be washing dishes for much longer.

Elodie's boss is just dancing like nobody's watching. Is she a Parsons descendant?

Elodie: "No way she's a Parsons descendant, she sucks at dancing."

Elodie: "I'm ready for my promotion now."

Your boss might want you to wash a few dishes first.

The best place to wash dishes is the bathroom sink.

What? It's Sims logic, not mine.

Elodie: "This is so gross."

Elodie: "Hey there, boss!"

Boss: "Have you been washing dishes like I asked?"

Elodie: "Excuse you?"

Elodie: "I'm the master dish washer. I've been washing them non-stop. You know what I'm better at, though? Bartending."

Boss: "Bartending?! You're thinking too far ahead!"

Elodie: "I know that, but I'm a hard worker, right?"

Boss: "Of course you are, but you're still learning."

Elodie: "Just wait until you see my mixology skills."

Boss: "I bet you're very skilled, Elodie, but I need you to prove yourself. Now, back to work."

Elodie: "How exactly is this teaching me anything about bartending?"

I have no idea.

The boss has the audacity to judge while she's cooking the meals for the bar on a BBQ.

One day, though, Elodie will be her boss.

Willow Creek is really pretty, by the way!

Elodie: "This boss wants dishes? I'll give her dishes."

Elodie: "Oopsie daisy!"

Elodie: "Hopefully she sees this."

Elodie: "Did you see all those dishes I was cleaning?"

Boss: "Yep, great job!"

Elodie: "I'm actually kinda hungry now."

Elodie: "Oh, yeah!"

Elodie: "Who's the best worker in town? It's me!"

Elodie was promoted to caterer! She'll help cook the meals in the bar for events. She's not as much into cooking as Jaxton is, so catering isn't exactly her goal, but this is one step closer to her becoming a mixologist!

Wow! If only Elodie's boss could see her skills back at home.

This isn't creepy... not at all...

Jaxton: "Prepare for war."

Elodie: "When is Servo gonna do the laundry?"

Elodie: "My beautiful orange jacket is getting ruined!"

Rosie: "I don't want Servo to do the laundry, I love playing in it."

Mackenzie: "You'll never leave the nest, right?"

Cooper: "That choice is not mine, mother."

Paisley: "Breakfast scramble for dinner is the best!"

Starlight: "Why is this thing moving so much?"

Servo: "Outta my way! I've been slacking on the laundry and now it's piling up!"

Finally, once everyone has gone to bed, Servo can work on creating some mechanisms.

He'll be enhanced to level 10 in no time. He's extremely energized for some reason.

Servo: "I'm working fast while everyone is asleep!"

Servo: "Now, time to enhance."

Enhancement take a long time. The worst part about is that if you cancel it, you have to make some of the materials all over again.

Mackenzie: "I don't wanna be an elder."

Cooper: "At least you're not about to get kicked out like me."

Mackenzie: "I'm about to be an elder with empty nest syndrome?!"

Happy birthday, Mackenzie!

Happy birthday, John!

Mackenzie aged up into an elder! She still looks so much like Ally.

Mackenzie: "You've been saying that since I was born! And I don't like being old!"

John: "I love it, I'm a silver fox if I ever saw one."

Mackenzie: "Yeah, you kinda are."

Happy birthday, Astrid!

Astrid aged up into a child!

Astrid: "Now I can't use a diaper anymore."

So many birthdays! Happy birthday, Cooper!

Cooper aged up into a young adult! Time for him to get out.

Cooper: "You're really kicking me out?!"

Astrid: "I couldn't resist this delicious cake much longer."

Jax is doing what he loves most, cooking.

Astrid: "This show is awesome!"

What on earth?

Just when I thought it couldn't get any weirder.

Astrid: "Just like our family."

All of the dogs needed a bath.

They're driving me insane!

They're constantly jumping in puddles and getting dirty, I can't stand it.

Mackenzie: "Me either, it's gross."

Servo: "It's so crazy around here right now!"

You're telling me? There's dirty dogs, three needy kids, a bunch of sims who won't care for their own needs until I make them, sims not listening, the list goes on.

Mackenzie: "Ugh, Asparagus!"

Asparagus: "Shake, shake, shake!"

Jaxton: "Getting splashed by the dogs sucks."

Astrid: "Sixam! Come take me and get me away from this crazy family!"

Say what?

Astrid: "Uh... nothing... I'm a happy alien."

Here comes the happiest alien, Paisley is such a happy little toddler!

Vanessa: "Watch and learn from the master of blic bloc!"

Elodie: "I have to wear a uniform now?!"

Elodie: "This food on the grill is nasty, I'd rather make my own."

Elodie: "You think the customers of the event will like tofu dogs?"

Yeah, they look pretty good!

It must be for a vegetarian party.

Next, Elodie begun making hamburgers for another party.

Elodie: "I don't like cooking, mixing drinks is so much more fun."

Don't worry, you're almost there.

Elodie: "I'd better be. This is boring!"

Boss: "I'm glad we're not the ones cooking for the event!"
Employee: "Me too, we get to sit around and gossip all day!"

Elodie: "These coworkers suck."

Elodie: "You guys wanna help cater the event or what?"

Employee: "Uh we're busy making... preparations."

Boss: "It takes a lot to help plan a party, you know? Not just food."

Elodie: "Aren't we only in charge of making the food, though?"

Elodie: "If y'all don't help me, I'll have you abducted by aliens! My sister-in-law is an alien!"

Boss: "Say what?"

Employee: "Oh, would you look at that? I've decided to help as much as I can."

Elodie: "That's more like it."

Elodie must have really scared this employee, she's been outside cooking all day since Elodie threatened to have her abducted by aliens.

Elodie was promoted once again! She's movin' on up very fast in this career, the sky is the limit!

Back at home, everyone seems to be cranky and tired.

Astrid: "I'm not tired, I want more food."

No! I'm not ready for this!

Happy birthday, Starlight!

Starlight aged up into an elder! I can't stand seeing her old and grey.

She's still adorable, though! Can she please live forever?

Ralphie: "Guess what I just did?"

Jumped in another puddle that you weren't supposed to jump in?

Jaxton: "I love you, my little princess."

Paisley: "I love you too, daddy."

Jaxton: "You ready for a bedtime story?"

Paisley: "Yes, yes! I love bedtime stories!"

How fancy, fish for breakfast.

Elodie: "Now my breath is gonna smell like fish all day."

Uh oh... I think we should all be very afraid.

Servo: "I'M SICK OF NO ONE HELPING ME OUT AROUND HERE!"

Rosie, run!

Servo: "Don't you dare take one bite of that fish."

Rosie: "But I'm hungry."
