☆*: .｡. Barbie wondered through the city as she browsed different spots for fun.. she couldn't help but feel like she needed to put in effort to go meet some people, she is new in town after all! .｡.:*☆

~

" Hmm, This looks fun" she thought. Putting on her confident face, she marched into the lounge with the bright pink sign.

Ooooh who will she meet? 👀

How Did I do????

I tried really hard to recreate my Barbie family. They don't look exactly the same but I hope it works to serve the purpose of bringing the challenge back to life. The pictures will show the original sims from my first save file on the left and the new sims on the right.

Barbie Christina and Theresa!

*It only made sense to make Theresa a young adult in the new version since the twins have grown up to be teens. This could also explain why she looks a bit different.

@sims-himbo

*********************************************************************

Meet the twins!

Now that the twins are older, I imagine that this is how they would look now.

Side by side:

I think the third generation turned out great even without having original teenage versions!

She dreams of marrying her high school sweetheart and best friend Ken {Kenneth} Carson, starting a family together and creating a loving home as a devoted homemaker & mother. She wants nothing more than for her children to aim higher & be successful in life.

Barbie Legacy challenge by @sims-himbo Thanku for creating this challenge! I'm so excited for this!! The little girl in me is literally squealing with joy🥹🥹

[sims-himbo]

So, if you were following my Sims 4 Barbie Legacy Challenge, you know that the cutie pie to the left would have been my third generation. That is until I lost my save file. I am in the middle of recreating the twins so I can continue the challenge. Thanks again @sims-himbo for giving me the idea to start with generation.

Here are a few pictures from their story. Includes generation 1 Barbie Christy, generation 2 Barbie Christina, and generation 3 the twins!

The Barbie Legacy Challenge is my favorite because I loved Barbie growing up.

Stay tuned!!!
