Round 10: Cipriani-Landchild Family

**At the end of the last round in this house there was a slight mishap of unknown origin caused the house to glitch and crash the game every time I tried to load the house. I was able to correct it by moving the family out into the sim bin, and back into a new lot (I am still not sure why this happened, but I am just thankful the family is intact).**
Last week in the Cipriani-Landchild household Starla married her second husband Edward Landchild. And Owen, tested the waters and tried dating. He found that he was falling for none other than a vampire Contessa. Lets see what they were up to this week.

First off, the new house...pretty spiffy if I do say so myself. Took me some time to build it, but after almost losing this family, I figured they needed some TLC (within their budget of course)!

And as you can see, I am keeping with the apartment style second floor for Owen and the first floor is a cozy place for Starla and Edward. Now that we have seen the new digs, on with the update!

Owen continued to date Contessa Kendal, and eventually the inevitable happened...

And his new vampiric form gave Owen courage that he had never felt before.

He immediately got down on one knee and proposed. She accepted and everything was great, or so it seemed.

Mom was not happy, and she did not hide her feeleings when she confronted Owen about his new way of life. She was an open minded woman who had seen alot in her day. She had nothing against vampires in theory, but she never imagined she had raised her son to become one.

Owen tried to confront his love and convice her to change her ways, but she was less open to the change and resisted...at first.

But once she saw that Owen had drank the potion and had came out just fine, she decided she would give it a go...she was in love and wanted to be with Owen...all that stood in her way was a single glowing purple vial...

Kendal Shankel
Pleasure - LTW - Become Professional Party Guest
Pisces - 7 neat, 4 shy, 3 lazy, 4 serious, 5 nice
(And she brought almost 50,000 simoleans when she moved in!!!)
To her suprise, everything went extremely well. Though her new mortal body felt sluggish and fragile, Contessa Kendal officially became Kendal Shankel.
(**players note: I used boolProp to rename Contessa Kendal to simply Kendal after her transition**)

So without delay, the wedding was on.

And went off without a hitch.

And durring a shopping trip, the day after the wedding, the newlyweds concimated their relationship in the changing room at Round Barn General Store. Hmmm...are those chimes I hear?

Yup! Indeed the chimes sounded and another Cipriani baby was on the way. Oh, and Kendal had a hard time shaking her old habits. She preferred the evening hours (though daylight no longer hurt her), and she still walked around like this...throwing in a bleh every now and then!

As for these two...Edward and Starla couldn't have been a cuter or happier couple. Their love goes to show that cupid can strike at any time! They both eagerly anticipated the arrival of their grandchild.

You all know what this means...

I hope she enjoyed it, cause she might regret it later!

And here they come...yes I say they as I am confident that Kendal will be having twins! Cheesecake twins that is.

Kendal has the twins we were expectin a boy and a girl, Joel and Josie Cipriani.

With a little help from grandma, raising the twins should be a snap...or so Owen thinks. ...

Will the twins be the angels that their father thinks, or will they grow to rebel against their parents? Find out next week!

wow what an action packed update!
The new house looks really great, love Owen's apartment floor.
He and Kendal make a great vampiric, or not so vampiric-any-more couple!
Can't wait to see how they cope with the twins!

House looks great, you did a fab job! Aw, what a shame you didn't keep them as vamps! They were an awesome couple ... she could have still given you an heir as vamps! I'm so bummed...

Love the house! You are very talented. My houses always look lame! LOL.

I 've never had the courage to play a vamp myself.

Good idea changing Contessa Kendal to just Kendal. *note to self =)

Woohoo, Cheesecake Twins!!! I hope theyt are angels, wait it might be more interesting if they aren't, so I'm torn. I love how the former vampires can't kick the habit.

That IS a spiffy house. I like the stairs on the side. Very cute! I love seeing other people's houses!
Good idea changing her name, I'd probably do the same thing.
LOL - I like the fact that she still stalked around and bleh-ed people!
Love the babies! They're always so cute!
