Tom: 7.11 “Bad Day?”

Last time with the Diffys, Tom had an argument with Leslie and Christine had her birthday into a teen. This time…

Christine is getting started on her charisma.

Gwen: Have yourself a merry little Snowflake Day.

Since it is Snowflake Day, Gwen is throwing a party.

Haven’t had a Snowflake Day party in a while, so this will be fun. Kim and Ny are the first to arrive.

Christine: “Hi, great-grandma!”

Nyota: “Hey, Mom!”

Ny isn’t pregnant here, she’s just stuck in those clothes.

After dropping off her present, Kim wanders off to the underground tomb to mourn. (I have never shown this room before because I just kinda plopped the urns down here).

Tom: “Grandma, what are you doing down here?”

Kim: “I don’t know; I guess I just feel nostalgic whenever I come back to this lot. Even though the old house is gone, I still have a lot of memories here.”

Kim: “Have you heard about Darrin?”

Tom: “Yeah, I was kind of upset about that, actually. He was one of my good friends, and we always played online together. But today is Snowflake Day; it only comes around so many times, and we should go enjoy it.”

Tom’s words remind her of what her mother told her on her very first Snowflake Day right after her grandmother Emily had died. She has seen many more Snowflake Days than most people, but agrees to rejoin the party.

Her outlook is still dark even as several partygoers take pictures of her.

Ana is here and she’s all grown up! I think she’s quite pretty and has unique features.

Leonard got coal, but he’s not mad about it.

Christine ended up getting two painting easels.

She also made good friends with Anna Templeton, who is related to Shirley Templeton in some way, but more importantly is a granddaughter of Jane, Kim’s sister, which is where she gets her hair from.

Anna: “I’m glad we finally get to hang out outside of school.”

Christine: “Me, too. School has been so crazy lately, so I’m glad we finally got a holiday. Anyway, I wanted to tell you something.”

Christine: “Alex Supine called me, and we talked over the phone.”

Anna: “Wait, not a text? Was that awkward?”

Christine: “No! Why would it be?”

Anna: “It’s just guys don’t usually call like that.”

Christine: “Yeah, but we really liked talking together.”

At the end of the party, Tom decided to give Christina a scare.

Tom: “Eeeeeeverything you know is wrong!”

Christine: “At least most people have gone home.”

Yep, no one saw that, except me. >:)

Christine started using one of her new easels immediately.

Sad news, Gwen’s mom died. 😦 She was pretty cool whenever she came over.

It’s Leonard’s birthday, so he invited Ana out for dinner and a movie.

They ended up eating at separate tables. >.<

And this was the only romantic interaction they could do together.

Leonard: “I’m really glad that we’ll be the same age again. We’ll be able to do everything together!”

Anastasia: “I know! And I can’t wait to buy a house with you so we can be together!”

Ana ran off right before his age up, so we only had strangers celebrating.

Leonard gains the workaholic trait, which is added on to perceptive, genius, friendly, and hot-headed. And despite Ana’s mention of him becoming a doctor, his LTW is Forensic Specialist, because I think that fits better with the combination of perceptive and genius.

Better pic at home in the light. He looks just like Gwen, but it appears he has Tom’s skintone only not as dark (maybe? Not too sure about that one), and of course throwback Wanda hair.

Leonard: “Buy a house?”

It’s springtime! Hello, gnomes!

Now that he’s all grown up, Leonard invites Ana to the beach.

Leonard: “What you said yesterday really had me thinking. So you want to live together?”

Anastasia: “Of course! I mean, if you want to. I just thought that’s what we were heading towards.”

Leonard: “No, I agree. So I wanted to ask you…”

Leonard: “Why don’t we just make it official? Will you marry me?”

Anastasia: “Yes! Put that ring on me!”

Distracted by the shiny.

Leonard then moved out so that he and Ana could go house hunting.

You’re pretty.

BUT YOU.

YOU’RE FREAKING ME OUT! Stop watching my Sims!

Norma Ruth: “They’ll pay! THEY’LL ALL PAY … me in tips as I busk.”

Oh. Okay, then.

Anyway, Christine is here at the park to see Alex.

And this girl is really mad at him because he’s supposed to be dating her sister.

Faith Meyers: “Why are boys so STUPID?!”

(Yes, that is Leonard in the background moonlighting at the kissing booth. Guess he needs the money.)

Christine: “Wait, are you really dating someone else? I didn’t know that.”

Alex: “No, of course not. We just went on one little date, but that’s it.”

Christine: “Oh, okay.”

Alex left after not too long, giving me the popup that it was a terrible date. Whatever, Alex.

And this old guy decided to die in front of the food stands.

So with that, I’m calling it here.

Next time: Tom has a talk with Ben and then they hold a little family meeting.
