The Bartletts

As I mentioned in a previous post, I play The Sims 2 rotationally and record my own gameplay.  I have quite a few families in Pleasantview who are the children of my original couple.  They also have children where most of them have gone to University.  The eldest son always comes back home but the rest of the family make their own way in life on new lots where they too will eventually marry and have children.

One particular family that I have are the Bartletts.  

As a teen, Charlotte was a Goth and has continued her "way of life" into adulthood.  She lives with her husband in Bartlett Manor, a large mansion on a hill.  

They have quite a few graves in their garden, due to the cowplant that they have fenced in next to the graveyard.  Unfortunately, sometimes they forget to lock the gate and a few unsuspecting neighbours try to steal the cake which the cowplant offers them when hungry.

To make matters worse, Charlotte decided to become a witch, albeit a good one, and she has learned quite a few spells and made quite a few potions.  She is really becoming quite adept at it.

I've never really played with witches in The Sims 2 as I prefer to play families, watching the children grow and learn and eventually go to University and then have children of their own but I'm actually quite enjoying playing a witch in TS2.  

But, I digress...

The Bartletts are really quite a "normal" family, living their day-to-day lives, going to work, taking their children (who are both at Uni) out to dinner and this next episode shows just how "normal" and happy they are.

Again, this episode is lots of short clips of my gameplay over a period of three Sim days.
