Edward and Lucy moving in could be good or bad. Right now we're still living with my mom. It's fine mostly, but not my choice.

She had only one point for an embarrassingly long time. The sparkling food is because they used fresh produce from their garden in the food though. :)<br /><br />No, Amanda doesn't have a profile because she's still just a dormie. They don't get profiles unless they move in for sure and I'm not sure if Amanda is permanent yet. We'll see what happens with her and Brendan. <br /><br />The big households can be hard to play sometimes but it's nice how close they all become when you have them live together. I can never be annoyed at that!<br /><br />Thanks for reading and commenting!Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09140819019098738245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-48763188993411401262014-11-24T20:06:27.827+11:002014-11-24T20:06:27.827+11:00Who is the chef in the household, Tatiana?

Well whoever it is it looks like they are a master at cooking with the way almost every meal was sparking in this update. ;) <br /><br />Amanda seems nice, she doesn't have a profile, I always like to check out your profiles. lol No pressure to create one for her tho! ;) Her and Brendan seem like a sweet new couple too. Hopefully it works out for him this time around.<br /><br />I love that you want to keep the family together in the one house. It really is so nice to see so many family members in your updates.Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04261344314447423273noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-62511118311665351272014-11-17T21:29:13.348+11:002014-11-17T21:29:13.348+11:00I know, right?

I have a pretty fair idea of where I'm going with Brendan and Amanda but I won't say anything yet. <br /><br />Of all the kids, I think Brendan's probably the least likely to want to live at the farmhouse again. As the youngest, I see him wanting to break out a little, as important as his family is to him. <br /><br />Heh, I love Jack and I guess Audrey does too. ;) He's not shy though - just introverted. Audrey is actually much more shy than he is but she's an extrovert. I concur on the sexy though, lol!<br /><br />Thanks for reading and commenting!Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09140819019098738245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-33678709551501095942014-11-17T21:23:43.367+11:002014-11-17T21:23:43.367+11:00Yeah, those loans can be so crippling for young co...Yeah, those loans can be so crippling for young couples especially and I'm not positive I'm willing to go down that road for Edward and Lucy, especially because Lucy will probably never make much more money than she's making now. <br /><br />In-laws can be quite intimidating, though Tatiana and Jonas are probably pretty low-key that way. Amanda had some work to do to impress Tatiana though but apparently, she did that without much effort at all. <br /><br />Thanks for reading and commenting!Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09140819019098738245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-77979328159100587952014-11-17T09:34:50.291+11:002014-11-17T09:34:50.291+11:00I can't believe they are empty nesters now, it...I can't believe they are empty nesters now, it was such a sad family picture this time. I'm glad Brendan was around to keep Tatiana company a bit before heading back. Amanda is really adorable, and it's nice that she fit in so well. I wonder if she will end up being the one. <br /><br />This is one of my favorite families, and I really enjoy seeing where their kids are ending up. I really like the idea of one of their kids living with them and taking over the house, if not Edward, perhaps Brendan after university. The latter might be less of an adjustment than it would be for Edward and Lucy. And yeah, who doesn't want to marry a Jack? sexy, shy guy with money... yes please! Audrey definitely got a great deal!

I have many young (and some older) couples who are really struggling with their huge mortgages and sometimes I wish I would've gone on a different road for them just because all their spare money goes into loan payments.<br /><br />I'm glad to see that Amanda got along so well with Brendan's parents. It can be so intimidating meeting the in-laws for the first time but at least it all turned out really well in the end.Sarihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08475614188928695076noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-2771477475450047832014-11-16T08:45:26.651+11:002014-11-16T08:45:26.651+11:00Jonas and Tatiana are definitely both all about fa...Jonas and Tatiana are definitely both all about family - Tatiana is Family/Knowledge and Jonas is Knowledge/Family. This is their first round without any kids in the house. Possibly last, if Edward and Lucy do move in!<br /><br />I just realised I don't know any women who don't prefer their mother-in-laws "from afar"! LOL. All the women in my life have mothers-in-law on a scale from mildly annoying to flat out insane though. Lucy is fortunate in that way, at least!<br /><br />Thanks for reading and commenting!<br />Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09140819019098738245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-16279106657885682652014-11-16T08:40:39.551+11:002014-11-16T08:40:39.551+11:00Keeping the house in the family is definitely appe...Keeping the house in the family is definitely appealing to me! The two farms in my hood have always been owned by the same families. Living with Tatiana and Jonas would be better than what they have now but still not ideal. Then again, I genuinely don't know how they'll be able to afford a house unless they take out a massive loan! But I'll see how it's looking for them when I play them. <br /><br />Boys and their toys, huh? I couldn't even remember putting that thing out in the yard when I saw them playing with it but I think the guys would be upset with me if I took it away now, lol!<br /><br />Thanks for reading and commenting!Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09140819019098738245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-42581321920051485872014-11-15T07:33:18.980+11:002014-11-15T07:33:18.980+11:00I saw the picture up top and thought, "Awwww,...I saw the picture up top and thought, "Awwww, Jonas and Tatiana are empty nesters! How sad!" They've always seemed so very family-oriented for some reason.<br /><br />My BIL and his family moved in with my in-laws a few months ago for money-related reasons and my husband once suggested that hey, that's a really good way to save money! Maybe we should take over the basement after K and his family move back out! I told him I prefer to like his mother from afar.The Sojournerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04559244806125834569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968444616198803470.post-9939089325473399972014-11-15T03:44:56.809+11:002014-11-15T03:44:56.809+11:00It could be really awkward to move back in with th...It could be really awkward to move back in with the parents, but it would help Edward and Lucy out a lot and make sure the house stays within the family. (My husband and I lived with his parents for a year after our landlord sold the house we were renting and we waited to get our own house built, so I know just how awkward it can be, lol!)<br /><br />I laughed at the picture of the guys playing with the helicopter. They never stop being boys no matter how old they are! ;)<br /><br />Can't wait to see Audrey and Jack's baby!Shanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06782031035661124367noreply@blogger.com
