It's now Christmas Eve and it's time for the last entry in this project. :) (I will try to post a TS2-related Christmas Day entry tomorrow, but it won't be ATOR related, so officially the calendar ends today.
For the 24th day in this calendar, our cast of characters includes: generation M heiress Muriel (crouching down on left side of picture, playing with her granddaughter), her husband David* (standing behind couch, right), their son, generation N heir Neville (sitting on couch), his wife Jessie* (standing behind couch, left), and their twin daughters Odette (sitting on floor, playing with her grandmother) and Olivia (sitting on floor, closer to couch).
(*David - see the Day Fourteen entry; Jessie - simself of leapsbarnes from the Boolprop and The Sims Writers' Guild forums.)
And here's to hoping everyone has a great Christmas Eve and a wonderful time with their loved ones. :)
