Created: Chalie, his wife Chauna, his sister Chillie. Also created Chloe, Chauna and Chalie's daughter and Chala, Chillie's daughter. All three adults were romance aspiration.

Initial Family History: Little did I know that three Romance aspirations could not live together, let alone two of them be married. My difficulty was keeping them above green. Eventually, Remington Harris (the maid) moved in with them. Having enough of romance sims, Chloe and Chala became fortune aspirations when they transitioned to teens.

Family Tree

Subsequent Family History: Remington wondered the neighborhood and whohoo'd with a few other people. He had good genes and the Amber and Zachary Orchestra really wanted grandchildren. He has a family aspiration and having children also fulfilled that wish. I moved him out at the same time that I moved Chille out. Remington spent the next couple months of real time in the Families bin.

After Chille and Remington moved out, Chauna found out she was pregnant. Chalie in the meantime was sewing his wild oats. He met Melanie Michelle Orchestra, another romance aspiration. They fell in love and Yasmine Jewel was born. He also met his new neighbors, Chai and Chamomile Theapot. Ivan was born of that union and his middle name, Canina is the only reflection of his father...he missed out on the red hair!

Chala and Chloe did particulary well in high school, but never had the opportunity to go to University. Chloe had gone steady with Fhillip Orchestra in high school. As soon as she became an adult, she moved in with him. Her parents were too strange for her.

Chala continued to live with Chalie and Chauna, fracturing her relationship with her mother. When Chauna gave birth to twins, Chance and Carlise, Chauna really didn't care. Chalie didn't either. So, tired of the games that they were playing, and being the main caretaker of the children, Chala bought her own place and took the twins with her. (Later, I found out that cousins can't potty train toddlers.) It took her a few days to realize that childcare was not all it was cracked up to be and she reluctantly returned to the main Canina house.

In the meantime, Chille met Zachary Orchestra (Fhillip's dad) and she lured him into her bed. When she was pregnant, she decided that Remington should move back in with her to help her care for the impending child. Remington now had two teen daughters, Paris Remi Orchestra and ???. They were both quite attractive.

Chille also gave birth to twins, Ivan Zachary and Jayde Michelle. Ivan's middle name was from his father and Jayde's from her aunt Melanie. (Note: Ivan and Jayde are double cousins with Yasmine.) Being quite prolific, she was pregnant soon after with Remington's fourth child.

Chole and Fhillip were doing quite well. They were both in the medical career field. Chloe enjoyed the support of a family oriented family instead of the chaos of a romance household. The pressure to have children was upon them though...Amber and Zach wanted 20 grandchildren! LeAnne Marissa was their first child, followed by Nancy Bretina, Chopine Chole and Chordes Chauna. (Middle names: Marissa - A name I always wanted to give a child of mine; Bretina - Fhillp's oldest brother is Brett; Chloe - obvious and Chauna - grandma.) (Naming convention of the Ochestra family started out as only alpha, then added the middle names, and then decided that all names should be music related.) Chopine and Chordes are twins.

Remington and Chillie never married and he started to fear getting old without ever being married. Of course, Chille loved him, but feared getting married. terrance Remington was born of the relationship and inherited his mother's red hair. Like all Orchestra's, Ivan and Jade had black hair. When the twins grew up and went to school, Remington again moved out. He didn't get out of the family bin until February 3, 2006...about 6 months of real time!

Chloe and Fhillip lived happily and almost outgrew the small lot. They couldn't move out though, there were too many family paintings to leave them behind! Leanne and Nancy had gone to University when their father came home from work and died unexpectedly, the coroner ruled it a heart attack. (Even though Fhllip and Chloe had dated in high school, Fhillp was a day away from elder when she moved in, he reset his adult life with the Elixer of life, causing of course, an early elder death.) LeAnne never got over her father's death and it has affected her relationships and her ability to make friends.

Yasmine grew up uneventfully. She happened to be the ugliest teen in the neighborhood. This was the first time that I had noticed that Chalie's nose was squished against his face. Yasmine didn't even get her dad's red hair. She was raised by her older brother, Daniel, as her mother was too busy trying to meet and whohoo with everyone. She did well in high school, but never had an opportunity to go to college. Daniel moved out before Yasmine finished high school. Chalie was there the day that she grew up into an adult. A few days later, she came into her inheritance...a house and lots of money. Melanie died in her sleep. (Grimmy came as soon as she got out of bed.)

As an adult, Yasmine really feared passing on her ugliness. She worked hard and reached the top of her career, but she was lonely and knew she would die eventually. She met Dennis Washington at work. He romanced her and she found out that she was pregnant. She has twins, Pearle Danielle and Peridot Denise. Interesting genetics on them...they are fraternal...one is black, the other white. One has a nice Washington nose, the other inherited gandpa Chalie's nose.

Chauna and Chalie had decent lives and even got a couple bonuses that allowed them to remodel the house. Chala was annoyed with them and desperately wanted to have a family of her own. However, someone needed to inherit the house and it appeared that it would be her.

In the meantime, Ivan Z., Jayde, Leanne and Nancy and Xavier Zachary Orchestra all went to University together, having loads of fun in their Greek house. While at college, Jayde became engaged to Gerald Guice who couldn't wait to start a family. Ivan C. was still a baby, Chance and Carlise were still toddlers, Chille, Chauna and Chalie had transformed to elders.

Ater graduation, Xavier moved into the main Canina house. He like older women! However, Chala had problems becoming pregnant and continued to be miserable without a family of her own. Jayde moved in with her mother, Chille. Ivan Z. moved in with ???. Leanne with her family aspiration moved in with Gerald Guice. Nancy moved home.

Jayde invited Gerald over one day and a few days later, she was pregant. ??? was born. LeAnne and Gerald soon discovered their incompatability and maybe she found out about his engagement to her 1/2 cousin. Nonetheless, she made way for Jayde. Jayde and Gerald are living in the Guice family original lot. Both of Gerald's parents received big bonuses right before they died and the house is really a mansion. Gerald also inherited a good sum of money upon his parent's death.

Coming full circle, Remington finally made it out of the Family bin. He bought his lot, using his free $20K handout right next to the Dareey house and across from Jerry & Ahlilbit Fast. It just so happens that Chopine also lives in that house, having been best friends in college with Ahlilbit. (Plus, I wasn't sure where else she should move in.) Leanne has now moved in with him and plans on marrying him eventually.

Chalie and Chauna died on the same day. Chala inherited the house. Chance and Carlise went off to college, living in a Greek house at SSU. Chopine and Chordes also attended SSU. Chala was eventually able to conceive and ??? was born.

When Carlise graduated, she moved home. Xavier secretly fell in love with the younger, more vivacious redhead, but Carlise rejected all advances. Instead, she declared that it was her house and kicked her cousin and her family out.

Chille is still around and is currently trying her best to woo the mailman into submission. Chala finally fixed the rift with her mother and moved her family to her mother's house.

Ivan Z. moved in with Jusin & Felisha (nee Coffee) Bukish and Riley Fast. Justin and Felicia moved out soon after both of them got huge bonuses and build their own house. Ivan Z. and Riley were soon married and thier three story house has lots of room for the children they plan to have.

Carlise is currently pregnant and will eventually get married. Chance moved in with Ellie Westing as someone needs to take care of the kids she has. (Ellie is a romance elder, soon to die, and her teen son may not be ready for college when she does.) Chance will move out of the house when Ellie's son returns from college.

Ivan C. has also returned from college and is living with his mother for now.

Nancy has moved back in to her parents house.
