About this blog

I’ve been a Sims fan for a long time, and I’ve always been a fan of creating big families and trying to control them all. So, what better way to do this than play a fundie family? 

This blog contains various fundie families and their stories, from Sims 2, 3 and 4. There are also some non-fundie Sim families included. It also has a few of my short stories, entirely non-Sims related, about a normal family who encounters some of our beloved (ahem) fundies in various situations, including at Wa-La Diner.

The Harpers, Chapter Two: New Season of Life

I felt weird thinking the phrase, but the early days of parenthood were a real baptism of fire. I knew a few other women who were having their first at around the same time as me, but I definitely felt "different" having two. There was also the fact that many people who were God-fearing Christians like us believed that women should do pretty much everything in terms of childcare, and the men just had to do stuff like lead family Bible time. Some had twins, but they weren't a couple's first child

Reviving This Blog... The Harpers (Sims 4)! Chapter One: Early Days

I fancied doing another Fundie Sims family. Meet Hugo and Verity Harper! This will mostly be from Verity's POV, until the kids are old enough (so when they're children).  *** I was so excited to finally move into a house of my own with Hugo. The wedding had been and gone, and now it was time to really begin our adult life together! The house in Henford-on-Bagley was fairly basic, but with lots of potential. It had a large garden area, too. One thing Hugo and I had in common

The Sinclairs, Part Seven: A New Season of Life

Samuel, as well as his siblings Thomas and Jessica, had also recently become young adults. For Samuel, there was only one thing on his mind as he arrived at the Sinclairs' home one afternoon... "Mr Sinclair, I would like permission to marry your daughter, Anna. I feel the Lord has really brought us together." "Of course you may, young Samuel. You two are very happy together, and I also feel it's the Lord's will." "Thank you. Gosh, I was so nervous." "That's alright, Sam

The Sinclairs, Part Six: A Girly Weekend

After school one day, Anna was delighted to see Samuel. Both sets of parents had agreed that front hugs were OK, as long as they didn't linger too long.  "How's school going?" Samuel asked. "Yeah, not too bad," Anna replied. "I like creative subjects best, particularly music." "I like history, but personally I prefer being active and getting outside. It's important to stay healthy," Samuel said. "I'm not much good at music; every time I try the violin it just sounds awfully screec

The Sinclairs, Part Five: A Potential Courtship

Anna had recently heard of a family who lived in Windenburg and had several children. She decided to form a Youth Fellowship Club so she could get to know them better.  "Hello, my name's Anna Sinclair," she said. "Hi, I'm Thomas Barker," said the guy with a green jacket. "These two are Samuel and Jessica. We're triplets." "Triplets? Wow," Anna replied.  "Yeah, it was pretty difficult for my parents when we were little," Thomas explained. "But obviously we can take care of our

The Sinclairs, Part Four: Life with Six Kids

Soon it was Sunday again, and time for church. A few more people came along this time. They weren't dressed particularly modestly, but Paul decided he was OK with it for now. Perhaps if he could talk to these people, they could be gently persuaded into modest dressing.  (Accessory tops have been a freaking godsend for modesty purposes!) Later, Paul decided to attend a study group. Faith grew up, and became the second child to inherit Paul's blond hair. On Mo

The Sinclairs, Part Three: Finally, A Boy.... And Then Another Girl

Diana loved her toddler playground! She was a very active kid and enjoyed playing outside. She also enjoyed learning about colours on the "Draw with Llama" toddler app. The Sinclairs were fine with their kids using technology as long as it was educational in some way. That Sunday was time for a church service. They dressed in their church best and went to Newcrest Baptist Church.  Back at home, Sarah was inspired to read her Bible. Even when she wasn't

The Sinclairs, Part Two: Yup, It's Diana

Sarah had always thought of herself as rather religious, but when she decided to read her Bible later that day, she felt convicted to become even more so.  She continued to enjoy caring for her livestock.  Caring for three toddlers was pretty exhausting, and Paul needed a lot of coffee. It was never any parent's favourite job, but Paul took on the task of potty training. Sarah also began to keep a Bible and prayer journal. (This is not a feature of the

New Family: The Sinclairs

I decided I wanted to start afresh with a new fundie save. I deleted the Williams/Millers save. I downloaded a mod that'll essentially allow me to homeschool, although the children are still only toddlers. *** Meet Sarah Sinclair! Note: I'm not trying to play this family as an Amish-style family with mandatory headcoverings, it's just a fashion choice on Sarah's part; it happens to match her outfit too. I could do an Amish family with the "off-the-grid" lot trait, but the homeschool mo

Williams Family Part Eight: Courtship and Marriage and Kids

This part will be narrated by Rebecca. I've skipped a few days; the main thing that happened was them moving to Henford-on-Bagley. *** I decided to form a club for musicians. Most of the members were female, although I had invited one male to the club. At our first meeting, he introduced himself as Alex Miller. As I got chatting to him, Elizabeth joined our conversation; I definitely had a bit of a crush on Alex, and Mum and Dad had emphasised to us about the importance of a chaperoned

Williams Family Part Seven: A New Season of Life... No More Babies or Toddlers

At the end of the last part, Lisa had recently given birth to twin girls, Bethany and Susanna. *** Rebecca is such a helpful young lady! Being able to cook will stand her in great stead when it comes to marriage and having children. I know my athletics outfit isn't the most modest, hence why I exercise indoors. The twins are such sweet blessings! It can be difficult looking after the two of them, but I know God wouldn't give me more than I can handle. Bethany's in

Williams Family Part Six: TWINS

At the end of part 5, Lisa had just found out that she was going to be doubly blessed - she was expecting TWINS!  *** Just a screenshot of the upstairs extension, with a girls' room, boys' room and bathroom. Back to the usual first-person (Lisa's POV) narration... I always love it when my kids play together! Elizabeth and Naomi love playing at the dollhouse. Rebecca is a great musician, and loves practising her violin. We converted the old boys' room into a m

Williams Family Part Five: We're Gonna Need An Extension

At the end of Part 4, Lisa had just given birth to baby #5, Andrew. *** As space was now rather at a premium, we purchased a bunk bed for the girls' room.  My garden plants needed weeding, so I got going that evening whilst whistling my favourite hymn. Once all the older children had gone off to school... Success! Baby #6 was on the way! Meanwhile, little Andrew became a toddler. We love you, Andrew! Baby #6 turned out to be... ano

Williams Family Part Four: They Just Keep Coming

Having been blessed with four pregnancies so far, I had gained a little weight. I also hadn't had much time to exercise and keep fit, so I decided to have a go on the treadmill. Household chores aren't just for girls you know! Elizabeth had made a bit of a mess with the potty, and Joseph decided to clean it up. Such a good kid! As our kids were going to public school, we naturally required that they worked hard and did their homework.  And... baby #5 was on its w

Williams Family Part Three: More Kids Than Parts

At the end of the last part, Lisa had just given birth to baby #3, Elizabeth, and Rebecca had become a child.  Joseph was rather stinky, so I was only too happy to give him a bath. He was such a sweet little kid.  I like to try and feed my family a healthy diet, and I also like to make use of leftovers. With this in mind, Rebecca ate some leftover grilled fruit for breakfast before school. Both Michael and I had been homeschooled as children. I had been prepared to hom

Williams Family Part Two: The Family Expands

Michael decided that he wanted to be the one to potty-train Rebecca, so he plonked her down on the potty and waited.  Bella popped over for a visit. "Hey, congratulations on your newest addition!" she said. "Thank you. I know Rebecca will be a great big sister." "What did you call this little one?" "We called him Joseph." "Oh, that's a great name. I've got two myself, Cassandra and Alexander." Two children, the average family. I hoped that the Lord would

NEW Family! Introducing the Williams Family, Sims 4

Yep, I decided to start another fundie Sims family, because I haven't done one in a while. I have quite a few fun/useful bits of CC I can use, as well as a couple of mods.  So, without further ado, let me introduce you to Lisa Williams and her lovely, Godly hubby, Michael. Both have the "Big Happy Family" aspiration. Lisa is demonstrating a very useful bit of CC I found - the accessory top! Now I have access to a much wider variety of clothing, as long as I use the fundie-approved acce

Parkers Part Twelve: Chloe's First Week

It's been a little while since we checked in with Chloe Parker at Sims University.  She wakes up bright and early on Monday morning, and has time to grab a quick bowl of cereal. She ends up being a little late to her first class, but she's not that worried as she sees someone go through the door just before she does.  That evening, she's feeling a little lonely, so she decides to chat to someone online. On Tuesday, she only has a lecture, which starts at mid

Parkers Part Eleven: Some University Screenshots

I've mostly been playing Sims 4 recently, but I've recently got back into Sims 3. I also have a few saves other than the Parkers, and I've been playing them. I do have a few screenshots of Chloe at university, though.  Chloe lives on her own at university, rather than in a dorm with heathens. Of course it'd be better if she lived with someone else, but I am ultimately the one in control of Chloe so I'll make sure she doesn't get up to anything dodgy.  In this first screenshot, we see t

Parkers Part Ten: Chloe Goes to University!

The first photo of the last post involved Calvin and an unfortunate bladder accident. This first photo is better... it's his birthday! Chris continues his plan of befriending as many inhabitants of Appaloosa Plains as he can. Perhaps if he dazzles them with his amazing charisma, they won't really notice his larger-than-normal family or conservative beliefs. Here's Calvin as a teen.  Amanda actually does some parenting!

Parkers Part Nine: Chris the Celebrity

We start off with a rather unfortunate situation... Calvin peed himself. Whoops. I changed Clara and Connie's outfits, to a t-shirt and skirt combo. Awww, baby snuggles! The kitchen was kind of gross, so sister-mom-helper Chloe stepped in. Ya gotta pay the bills! This is also the 2000th screenshot in my Sims 3 album. I bought the girls a kids' oven (forgetting that there were already two in the family inventory) and Connie approved.

Parkers Part 8: Just Some Random Photos

I haven't really played Sims 3 recently - I've been more into Sims 4 - but I had some screenshots.  I gave Amanda a new do! There aren't really any curly hairstyles in Sims 3, so I had to make do with some gentle waves instead. In the last part, Amanda had recently given birth to twins Callie and Carl. I decided to put them into the parents' room, so Chloe could get a little sleep. I'll move Callie into the girls' room when she's a toddler. Caleb off to work. Not quite

It really is the SOTDRT in the Parker home. You can obtain a violin from the Sims 3 Store. Chloe loves playing instruments! Calvin gets stuck into household chores.

Parkers Part Six: No New Babies (Yet)

I hadn't played the Parker family in nearly two months, but with this coronavirus keeping everyone indoors I figured it would be a good time to play them again.  A reminder of the kids so far: Chloe, Caleb, Calvin, Clara and Connie. Last time we saw them, it was Snowflake Day and everyone was getting gifts.  It was also the twins' birthdays! Clara is in pink and Connie in lilac. Apparently, when you're at level 7 in politics, your taxi around town is actually a li

Parkers Part Five: Chloe the Sister-Mom

I actually haven't played the Parkers for a bit, but I do have some pictures from the last time I played them. Last time, Caleb had just aged up into a child. So, we had a second pupil in the Parker Homeschool. Sorry, Chloe. Mommy and Daddy are clearly prioritising their sleep over yours. She decided that it would be best to nap on the sofa. CHANGE ME MOMMY! Woo, snow angel! Strange that he didn't change into his outerwear, though. Taki

      I love baseball but I'm dreading the new season because the White Sox ownership is THE FUCKING WORST. I watched Dominican League Baseball (Lidom!) over the winter and fell in love with their joy, spirit, and exuberance. The broadcasts were in Spanish and my Spanish is pretty weak but I loved catching phrases and repeating them. Bombe! I'm sad about MLB and Commissioner Idiota's busywork rules. But I love baseball, always and forever.
      I guess I don't have a point. Just bitching. Te amo mucho, Lidom!

      Happy International Women's Day!

      Humanity may have some work to do, to improve gender equality, but I was glad to hear that France has taken an important step to protect healthcare for women (and people of other genders who can get pregnant).

      Feeling ragey this morning. I have a doctor's appointment this afternoon in the hope of getting help for an ongoing injury. I went to a (different!!) doctor late last year who completely blew me off. He wouldn't do diagnostic testin, he refused to send me to a specialist, and he just told me to "take it easy" and "take ibuprofen." I'm hopeful for today's appointment but I'm also feeling a SEVERE amount of rage at that doctor from last year!

      Well, the rash is back with a vengeance. It never completely cleared up. I saw the derm yesterday and they did another swab and yup, raging infection again, still? It is definitely strep skin infection. I am getting so damn tired and run down from this. Who the f would immagine being hospitalized freaking TWICE for a rash?
