His daughter had been in a nasty car accident and didn't survive.  When he got home, all he could do was ask why.  Why did his daughter have to be taken so soon after his own wife had passed away.  But Peter needed to get on with life, his two grandchildren were going to be living with him now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5172/1406/1600/drums2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5172/1406/320/drums2.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Granddaughter: Monica Feivel&lt;br /&gt;Sign: Gemini&lt;br /&gt;Aspiration: Romance&lt;br /&gt;Life Time Want: Woo-hoo 20 Sims&lt;br /&gt;= = =&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Monica is a pretty young lady.  Growing up she was just the sweetest thing.  However with the deaths of her grandmother and mother, her father just disappearing, she's started going down the wrong road.

He was the son of a wealthy Ranch Tycoon.  He lived at the ranch with his new, pregnant, wife and his father.  They were all out caring for the animals when a satalite fell from the sky landing on Kevin's father, killing him instantly.  The loud crash scared the cattle sending them into a frenzy.  The panicking animals stampeded and Kevin's wife was caught in the middle of it.  Kevin struggled to get to his wife and raced her to the hospital.  Unfortunately she died, but the doctors were able to save the baby.  Swearing off everything that had to do with the Ranch, Kevin moved to Sunshine Valley with his infant son Jadon, in hopes to leave the pain behind.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5172/1406/1600/pizzadelivery.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5172/1406/320/pizzadelivery.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It wasn't easy, but eventually time dulled the pain.  Kevin is very devoted to his son, and has recently felt the need to bring a mother figure into his son's life.  Kevin looks everywhere for possible mom material.  Pizza night had brought Lydia into the picture.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5172/1406/1600/hello.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5172/1406/320/hello.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then most recently a new co-worker arrived on the scene.  Kevin has his eye on Virginia, and is hoping to get to know her better.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Will Kevin find a new love?  If he does, will Jadon approve?  We'll find out.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/15254865-112360459907847473?l=sims2sunshinevalley.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sims2sunshinevalley.blogspot.com/feeds/112360459907847473/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=15254865&amp;postID=112360459907847473&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/15254865/posts/default/112360459907847473'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/15254865/posts/default/112360459907847473'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sims2sunshinevalley.blogspot.com/2005/08/manzo-boys.html' title='The Manzo Boys.'/><author><name>Simstress</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/15313293938268680096</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15254865.post-112359924065161928</id><published>2005-08-09T13:38:00.000-01:00</published><updated>2005-08-09T14:27:59.403-01:00</updated><title type='text'>Introducing Virginia Shae</title><content type='html'>&lt;center&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5172/1406/1600/introduction1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5172/1406/320/introduction1.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Name: Virginia Shae&lt;br /&gt;Sign: Libra&lt;br /&gt;Asperation: Fortune&lt;br /&gt;Life Time Want: Become Hall of Famer&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Virginia has just recently moved into Sunshine Valley.

She currently is the local team's mascot, and it's not much fun inside the llama suit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Her first day in her new house, two neighbors happen to come by and visit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5172/1406/1600/visitors.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5172/1406/320/visitors.jpg" border="0" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The rugged, good lookin cowboy introduced himself as Kevin Manzo.
