This marks our first visit to the Taylor household (as this is a new house this round). Earlier this round in the Bratford household Ava and her daughter Willa moved out to start a new life with Willa's father Gerard Taylor. After years of denying her feelings for Gerard, Ava gave in to her heart, the two were engaged and moved into their new home together.
Ava had always been concered about starting a commited relationship with Gerard for a couple of reasons. The first was that she was a romance sim...a sim who loved many but was in love with none. Second, thier age diffrence concerned her. Gerard was much younger than she. He had been in college still when she had become pregnant with Willa, and was now just coming into adulthood. But Ava, being the strong willed woman she is, had overcome the age diffrence...all of those problems melted away with one look at Gerard.
Gerard Taylor
Knowlege - LTW - Become a Mad Scientist
Sagittarius - 2 sloppy, 3 shy, 9 active, 7 playful, 4 grouchy
As for the issue of her being a romance sim, well Ava had a plan for that problem too.
She had found that this orb would alter her aspiration...and with a roll of the dice...
Ava Ciprinai
Fortune - LTW - Earn 100,000
...Ava Cipriani was officially a fortune sim!
******************
The most obvious benefit of the move was that Willa got to be with her father. And the two spent alot of time getting to know eachother...all the while growing closer. But Willa wasn't going to be daddy's little girl for much longer.
Not long after the move it was time to celebrate Willa's birthday.
Willa Cipriani
Romance - LTW Reach TOC in Music
Gemini - 2 sloppy, 8 outgoing, 9 active, 7 playful, 4 grouchy
Happy Birthday Willa!
Her father got her a birthday gift ehich she described as "the best gift, like, EVER". It was her very own karaoke machine for her room. Gerard was just happy that he had Willa in his life...he wanted to nurture her in any way he could, and he thought that the gift was fitting seeing as she dreamed of becoming a musician.
He also gave her a little money and the keys to the car so that she could shop for a new outfit.
And after a quick makeover, Willa had found a look that she loved. Eat your heart out Avril Lavigne!
**********************
Since she wanted to earn some extra money, Ava tried her hand at cosmetology. She opened up a little business on her front porch and started giving hair cuts and makeovers to her neighbors.
But as it turned out, cosmetology just wasn't Ava's thing...she ended up making more people unhappy than the other way around.
On the other hand, Willa was a natural with the sheers and kept her mother's meanger business afloat with several loyal customers.
***********************
Deciding to finally make it official was a special moment for Ava and Gerard. They had no large celebration, instead the couple opted to exchange rings and vows.
The two love birds settled in to the rest of their lives together, ready to face anything.
**********************
Disapointed in herself for the failure of her hair cutting veture, Ava decided to branch out and try something new. Always one to take things head on, she planted a rather ambitious garden.
Everything was finally fitting into place. Ava discovered that she really loved gardening and devoted alot of her time to it.
But she was losing sleep at night...resteless and feeling ill, Ava wondered if she might be pregnant again.
She was too old for this, or so she would say. Technically she was still of childbearing age and risky woohoo does not discriminate.
********************
After some time...
...Ava came to terms with the fact that she was pregnant again and decided she needed to freshen up her style. She had made alot of changes recently...big changes. But she had yet to accept them in her mind. Since she had, she found that she was even happier than she ever thought possible.
Feeling ambitious and confident in her garden, Ava decided to join the garden club.
After a thurough and nerve racking review, Ava's garden was awarded a perfect score.
As a reward, Ava was given a wishing well to decorate her already impressive landscape. She was unsure of it at first and decided it best to leave the strange well alone despite the urge she had to make a wish in it...
*********************
Willa, working towards a life long career in music, got a job in the music track and was quickly promoted through the ranks until she reached TOC for the teen career. And while working she met a boy that she really liked.
His name was David Ottomas and he shared her love of music.
The two had several dates and were soon a steady pair.
*************************
Before we leave this house for the week...the little one Ava had been carrying decided to make a last minute appearance.

Yeah they got married!
OMG LSHICB! And after all that crying over her mother's infidelity she is a romance sim... poetic justice.
Welcome to RI Arryn!!
Fantastic update !
So Ava changed her stripes and apparently gave them to her daughter - how funny is that?
Great round! So glad to see they got married. :)
Congrats on your perfect garden score... gotta love that wishing well. :)
Willa looks so great as a teen- will her and David last the distance?
WTG Ava on the perfect garden and the new bundle of joy :D wow TOC for music is a romance LTW? hmmm... awww young love I hope she doesnt break his sim heart :) great update ~Lissabry
Wow, ten points is a lot--but I absolutely loved the picture of Ava advancing purposefully toward the Orb--it was hilarious. And it suits your story really well. I think it's funny, too, that Willa chose romance. These sims--perhaps she'll follow her mom's example and change her ways in Uni, when it isn't so costly?
The things you do for love, even aspiration changes... aw!
Wow! He fit a karaoke machine in that little box? I need him for my Christmas wrapping!
That's what risky woohoo gets you! I am definitely getting it as soon as I get home from work! (The hack - not the woohoo, lol.)
Yay for a perfect garden score aka. the wishing well!
As for the ten points, I'm sure you'll make up those 10 points in no time, and it made for such a great story!
Great update! Loved the risky woohoo doesn't discriminate! I was wondering why you were using the orb, opps, bye bye 10 points. Not like it's a competition anyway.
