BaCC Week 8: The Button Family  
 The Buttons have worked hard through autumn to remodel their house. It wasn't originally built to accomodate more than two or three sims, as the Greengrasses moved out when their family grew larger instead of adding to the existing structure.

The house is now comfortably sized for a family of four, and painted in Kate's favourite shade of blue.

BaCC Week 8: The Withergrass Family  
 The Withergrass household has come under some scrutiny of Arthur Picklethorpe, as of late.

Arthur: "There's something fishy going around here. My superhero senses are tingling."
Magical lamp: *Flickers ominously without visible source for its flame*
Arthur: "BUT WHAT COULD IT BE?"
House: *Makes scary, creaky noises. Faint hollow laughter can be heard from inside*
Arthur: "Maybe they're not paying their taxes on time, or something."

BaCC Week 8: The Other Babbling Family  
 Nate and Anna are finally starting to get more of a homelife, now all their energy isn't being invested  in the business. Nate has found some folks to take over the management of the bar, and has started up his own business, with the idea of creating a chain of pubs just like it all over SimNation.
At least this has put him on office hours, which makes his life a lot hectic. Anna, on the other hand, has once again fallen into a bit of a black hole now she's not keeping herself occupied 24/7. She spends a lot of time outside 'recharging', but Nate has got the feeling she switches off deliberately so she gets a break from her troubles.

BaCC Week 8: The Babbling Family  
 Theodore Babbling has fulfilled his lifetime ambition of becoming a Mad Scientist. With his life's work in science completed, he has time to spend on other projects. Projects such as finding out exactly where he came from, and how.

He's found a couple of guides on the internet that gave tips on attracting aliens. One of them, by a certain J. Smith, was particularly helpful. He's been searching the heavens every night for a whole week now, trying to signal his distant (in more than one sense) relatives.

BaCC Week 8: The Greengrass Family  
Last week saw the birth of Emily, Cordelia and Victor's daughter. Ever since she joined the family, Emily's pretty much taken the front stage for everyone involved. Everyone except for Hannah, but it's not like anyone cares about her.

Grandad Parker takes care of the tot when her parents are out. Cordelia has her new business to deal with (Greengrass Groceries, the freshest fruit and veg in town!), while Victor has taken over as the town's teacher after Myra passed away without making it to Education Minister.

BaCC Week 8: The Picklethorpe Family  
Winter for the Picklethorpes started off with Violet, the youngest of the original settlers, maturing into elderhood. She hasn't aged very gracefully and lost a lot of the good looks she had in her youth, but she tries not to let it get her down.
