Around the Neighborhood.

Dad, no, not you too!

“Don’t look back, don’t look back, don’t look back…”

Cleo has decided she doesn’t like this streaking tradition at all. Come on, Mom and Dad, you knew what time we were coming back.

image

Cyril and I chose the long way back home. We took this opportunity to chat, about this and that.  

Mainly, I take this time just between the two of us to try to have a bit of a heart to heart, to tell him how much I enjoyed spending the day with him, and how happy I am we’ve had such a great time together.

Keyword is “try”. The kid is still a teenager, and he goes into “gosh-Hannah-you’re-so-embarrassing” mode pretty quickly.

Cheers for the awesome day out! It really was perfect. I enjoy nothing more than sunny weather, and today was the hottest and brightest day of the whole summer.

Once mom is dressed again, I go find her at the park behind our house. She produces a horn out of nowhere — because she does that — and I cheer along.

I also wonder how many Cosmos she’s had. Either that or she’s trying to distract me from the handsome neighbor walking around in the outfit he was born in.

“And there was a band, and the singer winked at Cyril, and you should have seen him blush! But the best part was the confetti run…”

“That does sound really fun! Around here everybody has just been walking around naked.”

Pride

image

Cleo is the first to head to the Pride march, in her adorable little rainbow top and hat. She’s meeting school friends there, because one of the three of us had to be a social butterfly, and it sure as heck wasn’t Cyril or me.

image

Mom and Dad are staying home. They said “we’re too old to do this now, honey”. So their plan is staying home drinking cosmos.

image

I have to admit, their plans don’t look too bad either.

image

They might even be happy to be rid of us for the day. I feel like this is going to be quite the flirtatious day for them.

image

All ready for Pride! I went all out. I don’t go all out for any occasion. But this a special day for the twins, and I’ll be spending it with them, so it’s a special day for me.

So all the colors of the rainbow go on my clothes.

image

Cyril is living the rainbow in spirit, too. He even agreed to go outside without his usual fifteen layers of sunscreen. He ain’t living without the cap and the sunglasses though.

I did manage to get a hold of his cap and put it on backward.

Cleo’s the first to get back in the late afternoon. We all had a great time at the March, with the music and the dancing, and the friendly crowd. Cleo’s elated.

image

She isn’t elated for long, though. Or is she?

People have an interesting way of celebrating Pride Day around this neighborhood.

Happy Pride Month!

Hey guys!

So I wanted to make one pretty edit to celebrate Pride Month, but you know what, since I made about three thousand, I figured I might as well share my favorites with you all 🙂

I’m using the one above a wallpaper because I’m secretly in love with Shanna, but I’ve been considering making them rotate!

Anyways, Happy Pride Month to you wonderful simmers! Never forget you’re unique, and beautiful, and creative, and the world wouldn’t be the same without the color you bring to it, your very own shade.

Keep being proud!
