Last round, Canary Beesly grew up from a child to a teenager. She began dating Connor Dawn (after giving him a makeover) and prepared for college. Meanwhile, Izzi gave birth to another litter of puppies, Sizzle and Nuzzle, leaving the family with five dogs by the end of the week.
Or at least they had five dogs...why are we giving up the puppies?
Canary: Thanks for giving Sizzle and Nuzzle a good home.
Allegra: Why are you giving them up?
Canary: Well, there just isn't enough room. With this many animals, Connor can't even move in, and there's no way we'd be able to have kids.
Connor: I'm sorry you had to give away two of your dogs.
Canary: It's ok. I think my mom knew that we'd have to give some of them up for adoption eventually.
What are you two doing?
Connor: I'm trying to get my skills up as high as possible before I start searching for a job.
Looks like Canary is following in her dad's footsteps.
And there's no better way to impress the in-laws!
Looks like a simple wedding for you guys?
Canary: I just don't feel up to a big party.
Let me give you guys some privacy...
Let's make them legal...
Nice!
Looks like that pre-studying paid off.
Connor: I'll say.
And this should give Connor a chance to catch up to his wife!
Nice job, Connor!
Connor: Thanks! Where's Canary? I want to go tell her the good news!
I think she's in the office...
Canary: That's great news, honey!...Uh-oh...
Connor: Uh-oh?
Looks like it's baby time!
Sparrow's twin genes still haven't shown up.
Canary: It's a boy!
What's his name?
Canary: We're calling him Crane!
Well he looks just like his mom so far!
Mexico: Shake!
Trying to train the dogs?
Mexico: It's time...
I think I agree with you, Mexico.
What festive winter celebration would be complete without a pillow fight on the front lawn?
Man, you're having a great first week, Connor!
Mexico: You're really moving up!
Connor: Thanks, Mexico. I'm doing the best I can.
Huh...wasn't I with you guys for Christmas last year?
Connor: How would I know?
Oh, right...
Connor: You excited for your first Christmas?
I don't think he really knows what's going on.
Those cookies look great, June.
June: Well they don't smell great. It kind of smells like smoke...but the oven is off...
Uh-oh...
Man, that didn't take long...that tree's only been up for about two hours.
Sparrow: (clears throat)
What?
Sparrow: I'm not Robin.
Oops...sorry. Happy birthday, dear Crane...
Well, he's all dressed up to meet Santa...
And just in time, too!
Canary: Wow, Santa!
Santa: Ho ho ho! Where are my cookies?
Canary: They're in the kitchen...
Santa: Now, I don't know if I can really put a family of criminals on my nice list...
Mexico: Well, there's more to us than our career choice, Santa. I mean, Canary graduated college with honors this year.
Santa: Well...ok...
Man, Santa's easy to persuade. I've been very misinformed.
Although the gift he left is really only appropriate for Crane.
Wait...didn't Crane already have his birthday?
Sparrow: No, it's mine and Mexico's.
Then why are you holding him?
Happy birthday, dear Mexico and Sparrow...
Mexico doesn't look too bad...
Ow! That just looks painful for everybody!
Aww, and it's Izzi's birthday, too. Well, it looks like it's time for me to be on my way. I'll see everybody next round!
A Message From the Mysterious Voice: Happy Holidays, everybody! I know that most years, I do a special entry on Christmas Eve, but seeing as how I've only updated four times since last year's holiday entry I decided a Christmas themed normal entry would be a better choice. 2013 was a pretty chaotic year, and I haven't had as much time to Sim as I would have liked. Hopefully things will settle down in 2014. I do still have every intention of finishing this challenge.
