Now that I’m older, I often go across the road to help Mum out at the market. I’ll probably get a “real” part-time job when I’m old enough but maybe this will give me some more experience when that time comes.

At the back of my mind, I thought Claudia might be bored at home once both girls were in school but she keeps herself more than busy. On a farm, there’s always something to do.

Lot tour: Kirby vacation home at Three Lakes

You guys would have seen this house in the Kirby update from the other day. I really like it though, so I thought I'd post the lot tour here. This was originally posted over a year ago at N99. This house is a makeover (an very extensive one) of Copper Ranch Retreat from Three Lakes.

I live alone now and even after so long, it still feels strange sometimes. It's the first time I've lived by myself. I've always been kind of a social animal, so it's been an adjustment for me.

The Lachance-Patrick wedding

Round 32: November 2035 (Spring)
When Leslie and I were planning our wedding, my parents offered to pay to hold it at one of the more expensive venues.

It was important to us that we could pay for it ourselves though, so we decided on a church with an attached hall. It was perfect for us anyway.

(Jacob is 30, Julia is 20, Audrey is 19, Daphne is 4 months old)

Naturally, when Jacob got married, he moved out of this place and in with Claudia and her parents. He was getting tired of the bachelor lifestyle and he likes being a family man now.

You say it's your birthday, February 2031

Claudia Kirby is quite relieved. Jacob's long hours working as a fire fighter had her worried that when she went into labour, he wouldn't be there. Luckily, Baby Kirby has conveniently decided to arrive on a Tuesday, which just happens to be Jacob's day off.
