This girl walked through our side yard and she's so sad. Probably because of that lady behind her walking super angrily. What is the story here?


This cat acts like I don't feed her. Get your paws outta the trash.


What child is producing something of this quality? No offense to these girls' skills but... come on.

Also, I pretty much just figured out, like, last week that in order for these automatic pet feeders to work, you actually have to refill the big container part of it. I am such a fucking idiot.


That slice of cake is entirely too big for Briony but I'm kind of impressed with her ability to carry it all the way to the couch and not drop it so... you enjoy that cake, girl.


Briony: This cake is like nothing I have ever tasted. Peas be damned. Angels are singing and my taste buds are quaking.

But that all probably just sounded like, "WAHHHHHHHHHHHHH."


Arwen and Molly left it up to their two oldest to decorate the tree. As long as it doesn't catch on fire like when Arwen was their age, everything will be okay.


Beatrix: Calm down, sis, it looks the exact same as when we started.


The family came over for gifts and food and apparently Molly didn't feel the need to put pants on. Everything's fine.


Tegan: Did I miss the dress code on the Evite?


I feel like Tegan is really struggling to have a good time. She's all, "Mom, Aunt Arwen's is boring and the only presents I ever get are for kids."


Okay, love birds, let's focus on what's really important here: the welcome mat. Who didn't switch it out to the Winterfest one? It definitely wasn't me so I'm just going to blame Molly. Girl can't even remember to put pants on.


This is a face of "I really don't like this present but I'm just going to fake it until I make it." I know that face well, young Bethany.


Between Winterfest and New Year's Eve, we have Bethany's birthday. Can you believe she is going to be a teenager already!?


What kind of sorcery? The floating, the glow... maybe her demons are being swayed to the good side.


This is rude. Stop fighting my cat, you stranger!


Look at her, doing her high school homework before it's even due and drinking some tea. I see myself in you, Bethany.


God, these NPCs are just killing the aesthetic game. I want all of them to be in my household.


Bethany's friend, Tessa, invited her to the Von Haunt Estate but, when they got there, Beth pretty much lost all grasp on her emotions and things didn't quite go as planned.


But then she went home and had a nice sleep and invited Tessa out the next day to make up for the whole commotion. Sure, she had to bring her kid sister along, too, but they'll all survive.


I told everyone to ice skate and once this NPC started, I couldn't stop her! Bethany had to abandon her for greener pastures. This poor girl, skating around and around for all of eternity*.

*Not really.



Bethany really likes searching for frogs and investigating rocks and looking at plants and it's almost like, sometime around when this screenshot was taken, a plan for her future was taking shape.


Look who it is! The sad girl! We are so excited about it, we pulled out a horn!


Just kidding, we aren't that happy. Beatrix is getting that teen angst thing started a little early.


This girl, though, is having the time of her life. She's amazing. I want to adopt her.


Bea finally snapped out of it long enough to remember that it was New Year's Eve and shoot some confetti out of a cannon that she apparently had hidden in her jacket this whole time? Okay...



Excuse me, young lady, where did you find that alcoholic beverage?


Why do so many NPCs wear eyeball rings over gloves? Why do they keep making this choice? I hate it.
