Summer 2017, mini-update
No words to this one (except at the end) because I thought that the pictures told the story on their own.
But there is some necessary background music: “The Great Escape” by Boys Like Girls.
Three days before the wedding…

Dear Mom,
Sorry about the wedding. Having a great time at the house in Twikkii Island. We’ll be back in a week. You can kill me then.
Love,
Mrs. Jessica Craig Norman
Hello, I’m pretty new in this Sims neighborhoods community though I read your blog for a while already, and I’d like to start commenting π
And may I say, Jessica’s gotten herself into some trouble…
Hi! Thanks for commenting! π
Jessica has gotten herself into some trouble, hasn’t she? π
Awww, I think it was perfect for them to have a quiet ceremony on the island. No mess, no fuss. Although I’m sure Glenda is going to freak…..or has already freaked π
They’re an adorable couple, I hope Glenda doesn’t spoil the happy bubble they’ll still have when they get home.
When I first thought about having Jessica elope, I thought that Twikkii Island made perfect sense because it’s the place that has brought about a lot of changes and growth for her. So it was a sort of coming full circle symbolism for her to get married there too. π
Aww… How sad she had it out with her mom. Looks like they were able to have a lot of fun anyway! Glad they did. Hopefully she won’t be in too much trouble when she gets back.
Hopefully Glenda will get over it soon. Her daughter is married now, which was the biggest thing she wanted! π
Go Jessica, I guess she was tired of her mom running the show. Hopefully Glenda will learn something from this little episode and try to stay out of running her children’s lives.
Jessica finally had more than she could take and needed to regain control of her own life again. I don’t know if Glenda will ever learn to stay out of her kids’ lives though, lol!
This is SO what I wanted to happen! Jessica has to look back at her wedding day and love that memory and this way she will! Glenda wanted her daughter married, now she is :)…..she’ll get over it! I’m really happy for the happy couple! Congrats!
I thought that a simple ceremony with no fuss suited Jessica and Richard much more than a big, elaborate celebration. They’ll be much happier about their wedding day now, once Glenda gets over it, lol! π
Yay! I’m so glad they did it! What a beautiful way to start a life together, just exactly how they wanted it!
They’re not out of the water yet though – I’m sure Glenda will have plenty of opinions about when and how many babies they should have π
lol, knowing Glenda, she’ll definitely be putting in her two cents (or two hundred cents) about when they should have kids. π
Aww, such a sweet entry!
Glenda won’t be happy though…
Glenda is definitely going to have a few things to say about this!
That was great and the music was perfect. I had a small moment where I was like ARE THEY GETTING MARRIED? Her mom is going to kill her but as long as they’re happy, it’s all that matters.
I like it when there are entries without words. It makes you pay attention to the little nuances in the photos.
I’m glad you liked the photos only entry. π This song was the one that made me decide for sure that Jessica and Richard would be eloping. It came on the radio on my way home from work one day and I could see the two of them taking off together and getting married privately. “We won’t hear a word they say, they don’t know us anyway” was perfect for them. π
I am happy that they got married they way they wanted to. Instead, of falling for the pressure. At least they will have fond memories of the day and stories to tell their children.
Mom is going to be mad. But I’m sure she will get over it.
Jessica and Richard will be much happier with the private ceremony they had than they would have been with a big fancy wedding! Hopefully, Glenda will get over it soon. π
I’m really glad they eloped! Who could blame them? Glenda was becoming a nightmare to deal with. Jessica must be getting nervous about Glenda’s reaction. I’m hoping she doesn’t take it out on poor Richard. It looks like it was his idea!
lol, poor Richard! Already starting out on the mother-in-law’s bad side with his crazy ideas. π Jessica will probably tell Glenda it was her idea though to protect him, since all he wanted to do was to see Jessica happy instead of stressed out.
Poor Jessica, Glenda will be mad.
But at least she had the wedding she wanted.
Jessica just couldn’t handle the stress anymore, so she had to take back control of her own life. π
OMgoodness!!!! Her mother is having such a hissy fit right now! Love it!
lol! Glenda is definitely having a hissy fit! π
A beautiful private wedding on the beach, perfect for these two. It didn’t feel like things were going to be a Jessica wedding the way things were going, Glenda was really out of control and abrasive.
The big fancy wedding is not Jessica’s style at all. She knew from Darin and Annette’s wedding that it wasn’t what she wanted, but Glenda wouldn’t listen.
Haha, if anyone was going to stick it to Glenda, it would be Jessica! I’m glad that she didn’t let Glenda take over her whole wedding, this was what she wanted and it was beautiful just the way it was. But yes, Glenda is totally going to try to kill her when she gets back… that’s a scary thought!
Jessica always has to do things her own way in the end! π Glenda is going to be on a rampage when they get back.
i love Jessica! i so can’t wait until Richard and her have kids! Glenda will want them to have so many! To combine the Smith’s, Lloyd’s, Craig’s, and Gates you should have Dee Smith marry Zachary Lloyd (Emma & Seth)
I’m hoping that Jessica and Richard will want to have at least one child! They haven’t rolled up any wants for a baby and they never try for one though, so right now they don’t seem too interested. But hopefully they’ll have one or two. π
Yeah Richard would be a good dad and Jessica I dont know
I’ve read every entry about Pine Hollow and I think you should have a page with who has what aspirations because i was surprised Emma (Sutton) Lloyd was fortune I thought she would have been a knowledge and I think that page would be helpful π
Thanks for reading! I don’t have one single page with all the aspirations, but if you look at the Family Bios, you can find details about all the playable Sims, including their aspirations.
Thanks π
Shana I’m new to the sims blogging world being that i just recently found where the sim photos are saved and I’m wondering how you get more readers. I haven’t started yet because I need a computer that Sim Games Like π¦ Also Sarah Smith Lloyd Menon is just like Sunny Gates Sutton Lloyd because of their three last names
I got readers just by commenting on other blogs that I enjoyed and making sure to leave a link to my blog when I filled out the comment form. Those bloggers then started reading my blog and commenting too. Sims bloggers are very nice and they’ll usually check out your blog if you comment on theirs! π
Thanks SOOO much!!!

Aw, thanks! π I’ve thought about making another Sims 2 blog, but I just don’t have time to keep up with more than Pine Hollow. These Sims keep me busy enough! π
