One ending...new beginnings

While the kids were busy with their last semester of school, Andrea decided she had enough money to buy a small business in town and open up a flower shop. She worked a lot at home trying to perfect her flower arrangement skills.

Meanwhile, Camille didn't put a lot of effort into her last semester (at least, not into her studying) Her efforts went to spending time with Professor Reginald in attempt to boost her grades. She also had found herself slightly attracted to him.

Soon, it was graduation time! Both Camille and Bryson managed to graduate with 4.0 GPA's. They threw a big graduation party with all their family and friends in attendance. As a suprise, Professor Reginald proposed to Camille at the party and she accepted! Afterwards, her mother pulled her aside and told her that now she would be starting a family of her own, it had been decided that she was to inherit the family house and land. Andrea and Bradford asked her to move back home. They promised to throw a lavish wedding for her.

Camille soon moved back home, leaving her college years behind her with fond memories. She quickly got a job in the Paranormal tract. She spent a few days planning her wedding. After all the details were aligned, she and Professor Reginald were married under the beautiful moonlight at the family house. Everything went wonderfully. That night, Professor Reginald insisted they try for a baby as he wanted to start a family immediately!

They family suffered a loss the next night. While working on flower arrangements. The Grim Reaper came for Andrea - it seems her time had run out. (no pics, sorry!) In her will, she left the flower shop to Bradford. There was, however, some good news to be shared. Reginald got a job in the Military and, Camille learned, that she was pregnant. Generation three was almost upon them.

Camille went into labor while Reginald was at work. Thankfully, they had already got the second floor additions to the house complete, which would include the baby's room. Bradford was the only one at home - he was able to coach Camille through her labor and helped to deliver the TWO newest members of the family. A baby boy, Dale and baby girl, Delila.

Generation 2...Who will carry on?

Bryson and Camille arrived at Jackson Heights University accompanied by their mother, who was in tears that they had grown up so fast. (Camille was obviously embarrassed!) Bryson majored in Drama and Camille majored in Art - she thought it would be fun and a good way to meet lots of friends. They lived in the dorms and studied hard the first semester, though Camille did not like devoting time to her studies. Bryson even worked in the cafeteria to make extra money.

Camille did her part to earn extra money by selling paintings she worked on in her free time. They didn't sell for much, but Bryson said every little bit helped. She soon learned that she could use her female charm to influence others, especially the men in the dorm, to do her homework or write her term papers. That left her more free time to enjoy as she pleased!

Bryson studied hard and made several friends in the dorm. He even "cut loose" with some dancing on rare occasions. He soon noticed a cheerleader, Amy Oliver, who caught his eye. He got to be good friends with her and would bashfully flirt with her - she seemed to enjoy it.

They both had managed to keep 4.0 grade point averages through their Sophomore year - though, only one by actually studying. Camille learned a better way to boost her grades was to flirt with one of her professors, Reginald Barrett. She thought he was fairly attractive, but they had to keep their relationship a secret. They would meet outside her dorm for innocent flirting, but one night at the end of the semester, he asked her to come downtown for a nice dinner with him.

Bryson asked Amy out on a date - they had such a connection, she dropped off an expensive statue to him one night afterwards. Of course, he sold it for the cash. Meanwhile, Camille's methods for influencing her dorm mates had backfired on her. She was able to salvage most of her friendships and soon became the "Big Sim on Campus."

By the end of their Junior year, Bryson had managed to save a little over 20,000 Simoleons. They agreed with this money they could move out of the dorms and have a nice place of their own. Camille even suggested becoming Jackson Heights University's first Greek House. They through one last party at the dorm - then headed off for the new house to start living the Greek life.

A Growing Family







Bradford soon got a job in the criminal career tract. He was very glad, it was a job he had long been preparing for! His job couldn't have come at a better time - Bryson soon grew into an adorable toddler with his mother's looks and his father's hair. Andrea came home from work soon with the news that she was pregnant again. Bryson was so pleased, their family would be growing again!





Soon, it came time for Andrea to deliver. After a long, painful delivery - she game birth to a beautiful baby girl, Camille. She was precious...and, the apple of her mother's eye!





Andrea had gotten several promotions and was more than prepared for her next one. So, during her time after returning to work, she worked with Bryson teaching him to talk and use the potty! He soon blossomed into a handsome little boy. He was a good student, but quiet. He studied a lot - he seems to have taken after his dad!

Andrea and Bradford worked hard and gained several promotions each. Before long, Camille had grown into a pretty little girl. She and Bryson played well together and enjoyed showing off for one another.Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

Andrea studied and studied for her next few promotions. She and Bradford agreed the kids would do best in private school - they did their best to impress the headmaster so the kids could get in.

.Several birthdays took place in the house over the next few weeks. Bryson grew into a handsome teenager who enjoyed goofing off with his dad. A few weeks later, Camille grew into a lovely young lady. The next night, Andrea transitioned into elder-hood with her family closeby.
