Chapter 124 - Thinking in China

Lizzie looked at the little Chinese house.

It looked pretty enough, the snow was rather unexpected though. She had imagined a sunny spring awaited them but a very late snowfall had greeted them instead.

Chapter 123 - Why so downcast oh my soul?

Lizzie couldn't believe she was forty already.

Chapter 122 - The River Family

I was asked in the last post for a family tree. The comment might have meant just the immediate family but I thought it might be interesting to compile a whole family tree. As Generation six are now toddling around the place this is no mean feat. The River family is huge and I wonder if around half my Sim neighbourhood can now trace their lineage back to the founders of the Legacy; Laughing Bear River and Little Feet Leaf. 

Chapter 121 - The Joy of Grandchildren

Martha missed Owen every minute of every day but found it especially hard sleeping in the bed that she used to share with him.

Lizzie had been surprised to find out she was pregnant, but was doing her best to enjoy this and also enjoy being newly married.

Chapter 118 - Lizzie's Wedding

It had been a roller coaster few months.It had all started with her Hen party. Her friend and fellow celebrity; Natalie Westgate had organised it all. Insisted on giving a speech.

Chapter 117 - Highest Heights and Lowest Depths

The next couple of years past swiftly and for the most part, very happily for Lizzie.

When Lizzie had left for Uni, she had been running away from her future as leader of the River family, but she had returned ready to shoulder the responsibility and determined to succeed.

Chapter 114 - Generation Four Scores

The Victorian Era has now come to an end.

Chapter 113 - Second Year at University

Right from the beginning of the second year Lizzie and Henry were working hard. After choosing to complete their degrees in two years they knew they had a tough job ahead of them.

Chapter 112 - Working Harder

The first few weeks at Uni had been fun but half way through the term the twins were brought up short by their respective tutors and told if they didn't knuckle down and study they were unlikely to make it through their first year.

Chapter 111 - First Few Weeks

The first few weeks at Uni seemed to fly past as Lizzie and Henry got used to Uni life.

Owen was finding plenty to do with his retirement.

From playing his base.

Chapter 107 - Growing Up

Time was passing swiftly for the River family and Lizzie had entered her teen years and with it her rebellious tendencies had increased.

Owen felt that she was going to be a handful. 

Chapter 106 - A Rethink

Owen found the house much quieter now there was just the four or them.

Chapter 105 - Goodbye

The funeral had been held and Merlin had been buried in the garden as was the River family way.
