The Parsons Legacy: September 2023

Who the heck broke the stove?

Chase: "It was me, but I can explain... I was making a delectable meal for everyone, so you can't be mad at me."

Hooray! Dream has reached level 10 of the endurance skill!

She has a wonderful iron sign to show for it. It'll be added to the Parsons ranch sign.

Servo: "Who's a good girl?"
Dream: "Where's my treats?"

Chase: "This kid has a stinky diaper."

Chase: "Why has no one changed it?!"

I guess that's your job now.

Hooray! Duncan sat up for the first time all on his own!

Axane: "My son is so smart!"

Chase: "He gets it from his grandpa."

Let's hope he's not crazy like his grandpa, too.

Now, to learn how to crawl.

And try some baby food for the first time.

Brendan: "Here comes the airplane!"

What the heck is that rash on your dome?

Brendan: "What rash?"

Chase: "I think he got it from me."

Chase: "Is it hot in here or is it just me?"

Uh oh. Sicknesses spread like wildfire around here.

Dream and Blaire won second place in the master show jumping competition!

Blaire: "We'll get 'em next time."

After competition, Blaire needs to clean up after the horses.

Ooh, are there any finely aged nectar bottles in those shelves?

Esme: "A few, but not enough to complete my aspiration yet."

Finally! The forbidden fruit tree is now perfect quality! This means that every single plant in the Parsons garden is now perfect quality! Woohoo!

Woah... I can't believe it... after selling the plants in Servo's inventory that he's harvested, the Parsons now have $9,999,999 simoleons, which is the max amount of simoleons a household can have! I cannot believe the Parsons have come this far. They made all of those simoleons with zero cheats!

The Parsons garden has also come such a long way! I can't believe the Parsons have collected every single plant and now they're all perfect quality. This is a super proud moment in the legacy.

Duncan really likes applesauce!

Brendan: "Are you sure it isn't too sweet?"
Chase: "Who cares? We found something he likes!"

He loves it, apparently.

Esme: "Seriously? Applesauce is gross!"

Esme is pregnant again!

Esme: "Babe, I'm pregnant!"

Axane: "Again?"

Esme: "You seem so excited..."

Look who's crawling!

Magnus: "Just don't go near my food bowl, kid."

Servo, do not follow the strange light!!!

Servo: "Huh? What's that?"

That's the same spaceship that impregnated you the last time.

Servo: "Uh oh..."

Welp... let's hope Servo doesn't get pregnant again.

A few anxious hours later, Servo has returned.

Servo: "Why did they have to return me here? Why couldn't they return me to a field far away so this family could never find me again?"

The real question is, what happened up there?

Servo: "I'll pretend I can't remember."

Servo: "Did my unappreciative family miss me?"

If they woke up and saw you didn't make them breakfast, they probably would have.

Duncan loves crawling around!

Harry: "I remember when I used to crawl around!"

It's began snowing on the ranch!

Brendan: "Forget the snow, my grandson is about to stand!"

Hooray! Duncan stood up for the first time all on his own!

He's learnt almost all of his milestones!

Now, he can learn to grab.

Harry: "Let's teach him to bite, too."

Esme: "Is that really the best thing to teach him?"

Hooray! Dream and Blaire won first place in the master western pleasure competition!

Dream: "Yeehaw!"

Esme: "Time to try some more solid food, Duncan!"

Duncan isn't sure about mashed peas.

Blaire is trying to train Dream to max out her jumping skill even though Blaire is literally freezing.

Pinky, what are you doing?

Pinky: "I'm... guarding the food."

Chase made some pretty delicious food for everyone tonight.

I have no idea why, but Hershey is obsessed with the fireplace.

Hershey: "It's so toasty and warm!"

Pinky: "It's also dangerous... what if someone falls in that thing?!"

MY EYES! WHAT THE HECK IS WRONG WITH THIS STAN'S FACE?! I think he somehow got the curse of repulsiveness.

Happy birthday, Harry!

Happy birthday, Blaire!

Happy birthday, Todd!

Harry aged up into a child!

Todd aged up into an adult!

So did Blaire!

Blaire: "I need to tinkle!"

Harry: "Hey, the ground is covered in snow outside!"

Servo is up bright and early to feed Dream some fresh produce from the garden.

Not without paparazzi stalking him, of course.

It's that time again, purchasing a bunch of horse balls because Servo's stalker stealing stans keep stealing them.

Blaire: "At least we're rich, so we can afford millions of horse balls."

True dat.

Poor Duncan has to wear his cold weather outfit at all times because it's freezing.

Axane: "It never snows on Sixam. Look, I drew a star in the snow!"

Esme: "I never thought about that. It's Axane's first time seeing snow."

Duncan learned to grab!

Chase: "We need to post about this on social bunny."

Esme: "My son is most definitely a genius, just like his mama!"

Axane is building his first snowpal!

On that note... it's Winterfest time! 🎄🎅🎁

Which only means one thing... let the brutal Winterfest tree decorating begin.

Axane's snowpal is adorable!

Axane: "Building a snowpal is like molding a lump of clay, except a lump of clay doesn't feel like your hands are so cold they're gonna freeze off."

Esme: "You two clearly need my decorating expertise."

Brendan: "You look so handsome in your cold weather outfit."

Chase: "I know, right?"

Dream and Blaire won second place in the master barrel racing competition!

Blaire: "We'll get first place next time, I just know it."

Ooh, the Winterfest tree looks beautiful!

Uh... there's a little too much smoke coming from those eggs.

Bonehilda: "What's going on in here? I can smell smoke!"
Chase: "Nothing! Everything's fine!"

Bonehilda: "It sure doesn't look fine!"
Harry: "FIRE!!!"

Oh, snap!

The firefighters are here to save the day! Thank gosh for the smoke alarm.

Chase: "How the heck did that happen? I maxed out my cooking skill and I still have no guarantee of not starting a fire while cooking."

Firefighter: "Another life saved!"

I'm just glad you weren't outside dancing like that time in Granite Falls.

Alright, y'all, you can go back inside.

Let me guess, they don't have fires on Sixam?

Axane: "Nope. That was terrifying!"

Esme: "Ugh, I think I'm in labor."

Axane: "I'm gonna go take a nap-"
Esme: "Babe, the baby's coming."

Axane: "Aww, man! Two terrifying situations in one day?!"

Esme: "Yep... hooray..."

Esme: "Ahh! This hurts a lot!"

Axane: "Hopefully I can take a nap afterwards."

*Sparkles!*

It's a boy! 💙 Introducing Evan Parsons!

There's so many boys in this generation, and no girls yet. Usually it's the opposite.

Hooray! Dream has reached level 10 of the jumping skill!

Another sign to add to the ranch sign.

Dream only has one more skill to max out - the temperament skill.

Duncan isn't happy about aging up at all.

Too bad. Happy birthday, Duncan!

Duncan aged up into a toddler!

Duncan: "I didn't want to age up!"

Blaire: "But, now you can eat cereal!"

Or fling it in the air.

Servo: "Come get the grand meal!"

Evan aged up into an infant! He's still not quite old enough to eat the grand meal, though.

Chase: "This grand meal is delicious! Should I take credit for it?"

Esme: "Since Evan can't have the grand meal, he gets a grand baby bottle instead."

Axane: "That was my first grand meal... and it was the best thing that's ever happened to me."

Harry: "Can we go back for seconds, grandpa?"
Chase: "Duh. This is Winterfest, there's no rules."

Duncan: "This is yummier than cereal!"

Brendan: "Were you staring at the fireplace for two hours straight again?"

Poor Evan hates tummy time.

Servo: "Even the horses get some grand produce."

Is every bit of food being called 'grand' today?

Blaire: "I know it's Winterfest, but I'm thinking maybe we could enter another competition today-"

Dream: "No."

Time for Duncan to learn how to talk by spamming the 'babble' interaction with this giant bunny toy.

Any luck today in collecting lots of 'finely aged' nectar bottles?

Esme: "Not many 'finely aged' nectar bottles yet, but it looks like they're coming close!"

The nectar bottles that Esme did sell were worth lots of simoleons, but it didn't count towards her aspiration because the Parsons already have the max amount of simoleons. I'll have to buy these expensive statues which are 12,000 simoleons to lower the amount of simoleons the Parsons have so Esme can work on her aspiration by selling the nectar bottles.

To make up for it, she can sell a few of Servo's nectar bottles.

Brendan: "I've lived a long life, but it's time for me to go."

Noooooooo! Brendan!

Brendan: "Take care of my family for me."

Chase: "I've lived a long life, too. It's time for me to go."

Nooooooooo! Not Chase, too!

Rest In Peace, Brendan Parsons. You were a wonderful, family oriented sim. You will be dearly missed.

Chase: "Take care of San Myshuno for me... even though they still hate me."

Rest In Peace, Chase Parsons. You were a wonderful sim who excelled in so many random skills. You will be dearly missed.

Grim Reaper: "Look on the bright side, at least you can go back to San Myshuno, now."

Axane: "I can't believe Brendan and Chase are gone! I'm gonna water the plants with my tears."

Bonehilda: "Why did the Grim Reaper never reap my soul?"

Bonehilda: "I'm stuck here cleaning up after sims... FOREVER!"

Dream: "We can't even go inside to mourn the deaths!"

Nice try, no horses allowed inside.

Evan may hate tummy time, but he lifted his head for the first time!

Blaire: "I can't believe dad and dad are gone... and they died on Winterfest."

Even after the devastation, the Parsons need to open their gifts.

Todd: "This gift sucks!"

Harry: "So does my gift!"
Todd: "I got a lump of coal. Toss it into the fire where it belongs."

Esme: "I wonder what I got-"

Esme: "Hey, who the heck put dog poop in here?!"

Duncan: "A new car toy!"

Duncan: "I love my gift!"

Axane: "My gift isn't so great."

Servo: "I wonder what I got..."

Servo: "A new tablet? I finally got a good gift!"

Esme: "Why the heck did we all get horrible gifts and Servo got a good gift?!"

Servo: "The tables have turned. This is suddenly my favorite Winterfest ever."

Blaire: "I wonder what I got?"

Blaire: "A new bridle? Awesome!"

Blaire: "Take that, Servo!"

Poor Servo has to do his university homework, even during Winterfest.

Harry: "I'll pretend this was my Winterfest gift because it's my favorite toy ever!"

Blaire: "I must be Father Winter's favorite sim."

Esme: "Shall we read a story about a crazy family?"

Duncan: "We're already in a crazy family, mommy."

Blaire is outside in the freezing cold trying to level up Dream's temperament skill.

Servo has a new penpal from Littlehaven! For some reason, he can only ask for postcards from three locations, though.

What the heck is going on here?

Pinky: "What? Can't a cat lick her tail in front of the food bowl in peace?"

Stop eating trash!

Hershey: "I'm innocent!"

Why didn't you stop them?

Todd: "I was just trying to brush my teeth in peace."

Poor Pumpkin and Meadow have entered their elder years.

Duncan: "I can't wait to be an elder one day!"

Esme: "Hehe... Magnus is so cute, look at him!"

Magnus: "Feed me, human."

Esme: "Let's read about shapes today."

Duncan's imagination skill is increasing really fast.

Now, he needs to learn how to dance if he wants to be a true Parsons.

Servo: "Maybe he can learn the Rumbasim one day."

Look who's awake and doing tummy time on his own in his crib!

Ahoy, matey! Servo has a new penpal from Barnacle Bay.

Esme: "I can feel this ranch music in my soul!"
Blaire: "Or, it could be the ancient Parsons dancing spirit taking over."

Evan sat up on his own!

Since Chase is gone, Esme is the new cook while Servo is busy.

Esme: "I'm terrified, yet determined."

Esme: "I made the only recipe I know how to make: taco casserole."

Harry: "Why couldn't Servo cook dinner?"

He's too busy using the future cubes that keep appearing out of nowhere.

Servo: "Your uncertainty, certainly shall become certain, under certain situations in no uncertain terms."

Servo: "That means I'll be free on this family once and for all one day? YES!"

I'm not sure how you got that out of that weird prediction... but okay.

Hooray! Dream's temperament skill is now level 10, meaning she has maxed out every single horse skill! Ultimate Horse Championship, here we come!

Another sign to add to the ranch sign.

Now, the Parsons have all of the training signs!

Dream is more than ready to compete for the Ultimate Horse Championship on Saturday!

Mocha: "What about me?"

Magnus: "I've lived a long life, but it's time for me to go."

Noooooooo! Magnus!

Rest In Peace, Magnus Parsons. You were a wonderful, sweet cat. You will be dearly missed.

Axane: "Hey! We don't throw our food off the highchair, Duncan!"

Duncan: "What if it tastes bad?"

It's New Year's Eve time! 🎉🥳

Blaire: "Ugh, it's freezing out here. Get me inside!"

Hooray! Dream and Blaire won first place in the master endurance racing competition!

Speaking of achievements, Esme just sold lots of 'finely aged' nectar bottles, finally reaching her aspiration goal of selling over 100,000 simoleons worth of nectar bottles in total!

By doing this, she completed her aspiration 'Expert Nectar Maker'! I'm so proud of her!

Servo is outside in the freezing cold trying to harvest some prairie grass like he's in Stardew Valley.

Servo: "I'm never doing this again."

Let's see if Evan likes mashed sweet potatoes.

According to the pop-up, he hates them.

Esme: "I think the pop-up lied, it seems like he loves them."

Harry: "Why is it so freezing in here?!"

Because it would be weird to have a thermostat on a ranch.

Blaire: "I'd better get to sleep early. The Ultimate Horse Championship is tomorrow!"

The next day, Blaire is up bright and early ready to compete.

Dream and Blaire are down at the equestrian center!

Blaire: "Are you ready to win the Ultimate Horse Championship, girl?"
Dream: "You bet I am."

I'm so nervous, I can't believe the big day is finally here!
