Chapter Thirty One

Jo made french toast for the family's breakfast

Pumpkin and Midnight got to know each other

While Jo helped Joshua with his garden

Midnight took himself to the training grounds

While Tamara rode Pumpkin

And had her practice over the small jumps

Midnight was happy to practice the more strenuous jumps on his own

But later Tamara took him over them with a rider while Pumpkin drank from the horse trough

She then took him to the Equestrian Centre to stand stud again and they then won another race

At home, Jo had prepared some salmon for dinner

Joshua had invested their spare funds in a new house and once they'd finished eating the whole family piled into Tamara's car (which was mostly used by Joshua these days) and travelled the short distance to the new place

Smudge was delighted to find a cat house and scratching post combined

And the whole family spent their first night in their new home

Jo woke early the next morning

And made breakfast for the family in the new kitchen

Joshua got busy planting a new garden, choosing the very best seeds he'd saved

Tamara took Midnight and Pumpkin down to the training grounds as usual

That evening, it was time for Jo to get old

In light of this, and the extra room in the new house, Joshua and Tamara decided it was time to get started on the next generation, they wanted their children to know their grandmother...

Unfortunately, Sooty had managed to pick up some fleas, so Jo was forced to give her a flea bath to clear the problem up

Joshua spent the morning tending and fertilising his new garden 

 Tamara had taken the horses down to the training ground, but soon after she got there she found herself running to the toilet to throw up...

 She decided Pumpkin had been trained enough, and if the sickness was what she thought (hoped) it was they were going to need some more funds, so she rode her down to the Equestrian Centre where she sold her for a nice sum

She then used some of those proceeds to pick up a new mare called Arashi 

 When she got home she settled down in front of the TV for a while

 While Jo started upgrading the washing machine

 Sooty and Smudge had been getting on very well 

And one thing led to another in the pet house...

Notes: Arashi was edited in CAS to become a clone of this horse from MTS:- http://www.modthesims.info/download.php?t=458643 although I kept the traits from the original horse I bought
