Birth announcements - Issue 5

This time we have to explain a little more than with the usual birth announcements. Friday night Mr. Thomas Marceau got really sick and feverish. He complained about belly aches and thus his sister Delphine called the Easton family in because there's no medical care in Pirri Beach at the moment and she hoped for the Eastons to organize an exceptional ferry transfer to Vezz Haven City for her brother. While she was downstairs on the phone she heard her brother scream and it turned out he had been right about the aliens all the time. When she arrived in his room again Mr. Marceau had somehow 'given birth' to...well...something.

Mrs. Easton (she took back her maiden name) couldn't talk or move for a while when she saw what had happened. She sat in an armchair next to the crib for almost an hour...

Then she seemed to have made a decision about handling the exceptional situation. Much to her brother John's dislike she decided they'd keep the alien birth a secret to the Simerican government while at the same time making a custom law for Pirri Beach that allows to keep alien spawn with it's human parent. She also declared it necessary for the parent to report any strange occurances with the extrasimmestrial child immediately and deliver a common development record to the Eastons each week.

So...*coughs* it's a stellar pleasure to welcome the first extrasimmestrial child to Pirri Beach: Ms. Iokaste Marceau, daughter of Mr. Thomas Marceau and...some unknown extrasimmestrial being. Welcome Iokaste and congratulations to the Marceau family!

The Cortez'/Beakleys

Joao Cortez is a violinist of great renown in Simerica. He was looking for an adventurous place to start living with his partner and thought there's no better place for adventures than the slopes of an active volcano...the old and new Pirri Beach inhabitants are very happy to have him living here as he's some kind of celebrity and thus they tolerate his sexual orientation quite freely.

David (or Dave) Beakley works with Ms. Byrnes and is the second Pirri Beach police officer. He'd go anywhere for Joao and though he didn't really think moving to the Island was the perfect idea he accepts it and is getting to know his neighbours at the moment.

The (new) Kellys

Mr. M.P. Kelly had enough of his life as a well-known musician and was on the lookout for a quiet place to live with his pregnant wife when he heard of Pirri Beach being reopened for applications after the Mr. Vezz desaster. He applied and was soon accepted and is now looking forward to being a stay at home dad for his little son while only occasionally playing small gigs at the Pirri Beach church for a living.

Though the picture doesn't look it Mrs. Stefanie Kelly is very happy to be in her new home. She hopes her husband found the right place to raise a bunch of children because she wants at least three!

And this is the youngest member of the family: Daniel Kelly. He was born shortly after his parents' move to Pirri Beach and doesn't do much more than bonding with mom and dad at the moment. Welcome to the Kelly family and congratulations on your new addition.

The Byrneses

Pamela Byrnes moved to Pirri Beach with her younger sister. She's leading the new eruption research institute in the old Pirri Beach lighthouse. While she has taken interest in the youngest Marceau brother also she's taking her responsibility for Pirri Beach's safety seriously and hopes to be able to prevent any future desasters.

Deborah (or Debbie) Byrnes was invited to Pirri Beach by the remaining Eastons to become the head of the newly founded Pirri Beach police department. Due to this work she doesn't have much time for anything else at the moment and is procrastinating her plans to have a family of her own for the time being.

The Celiks

Rahman Celik, an ambassador from Simkistan moved to Pirri Beach after the Mt. Vezz desaster. He was called to help with the public relations by John Easton. Mr. Celik was very happy to find the Kaplan family at his new place so he and his family are not the only Simkistanians in the neighborhood.

Nabila Celik, Rahman's wife, is a quite untraditional Simkistanian lady and likes her new town a lot. She's made contact with most of Pirri Beach's inhabitants fast and is at the moment awaiting the birth of her second child.

Little Hasan Celik on the other hand seems to be having a hard time adjusting to his new surroundings. There aren't many other children his age at the moment so most of the time it's just him and his mom and her mom's various female friends. We'll see how this works out.

The Rabensteins

Klaus Rabenstein brought his family to Pirri Beach when he heard of the Mt. Vezz desaster. He's a paramedic and hopes to be of help to the surviving Inhabitants.

His wife Nadine agreed to the move willingly. Pirri Beach, after it's cleanup seems to be a nice enough place to raise a big family to her and she plans on having two or three more children the next few years.

Daughter Lenya doesn't look too happy in this picture but that might be because there are not exactly too many other children in Pirri Beach right now to play with. Hopes are this will change soon...

The Marceaus

Mrs. Svensson welcomes the Marceau family in Pirri Beach. The family consists of

Thomas Marceau, the eldest brother. He's the one who paid for their move to Pirri Beach as he hopes to find good circumstances here for his "research" on extrasimmestrial intelligence. His siblings sometimes wonder if he's gone a little crazy but as he's a very nice and kind sim (if only he wasn't talking about aliens all the time!) they love him dearly.

Delphine, firstborn of the Marceau-twins. After graduation she didn't exactly know what to do with her life so she went with her siblings. The Marceau's parents are missing since the twins were teens so Delphine and her twin brother were raised by Thomas.

This is said twin brother, Julien. He's a very nice guy but a little absent sometimes. He's hoping to find some cute lady to marry in Pirri Beach and cannot wait to move out of his brother's house once he found his Mrs. Three Bolts.

Newsflash - Survivors!

Back in the provisionally rebuilt Pirri Beach orphanage: Ebru, Lizzie, Mohammed and Sherazade Kaplan!

The surviving Easton family members donated all their funds to clean and provisionally rebuild Pirri Beach. Everyone is still mourning the death of family and friends but is also determined to let life go on. Thus Mr. Easton invited new families to live in Pirri Beach. While there's still no news of the Simmons Clan, Mr. Easton has hopes at least some of them made their way to the ferry in time and just haven't returned yet. We'll keep you updated and will be back soon with news about the new inhabitants.

Saying Goodbye

Sadly Mt. Vezz erupted and Pirri Beach was annihilated in a big fiery ball visible from space. Rest in peace beloved families and enjoy the big party in Simheaven.

Issue 6 - Pirri Beach report

After Kyle's death his wife Athena had a visit by the Sim therapist. She has recovered fully by now as arrangements were made for her to be married by the faithful Eastonic Olaf Svensson. Athena and her children will move in to the Svenssons while Mr. Simmons' second wife, Adriana, wants to find a home of her own for herself and her son Zima. Good luck to you all and our heartfelt condolences.

Former Mama Easton, Stefanie Kelly, is reaching very old age now. She's still with her husband and daughter but can not do much more than preparing meals and occasionally visiting the playground with little Sarah. It seems she dreams about her grandchildren a lot and is sad she'll probably never come to meet little Leonor in person as the journey to Aura Lake would be much to hard for her.

Shortly before graduation at Vezz Island college Liv Svensson seperated her highschool sweetheart Mohammed Kaplan. She told him she had other plans for her future than being a homemaker and all hell broke loose. Mohammed seemed devastated but Liv didn't really care. She graduated summa cum laude in mathematics and...

...moved to a small trailer home in Vezz Haven City to pursue her career at the R.E.S.I. (Research of ExtraSimmestrial Intelligence) Institute. Congratulations Ms. Svensson and good luck with your research.

Mr. Ashton Carmelis graduated at Vezz Island college and afterwards took over the job as the housekeeper of the old Easton house. His girlfriend Alexandra who graduated with him refused to move in with him so he felt lonely. While watching TV he saw an Ad of the children at Kaplan orphanage and immediately filed the adoption papers.

Thus it seems, little Kieran Valon finally has some luck in his life. He's too old for an adoption but was relocated with his foster dad Ashton right after his transition to a child. Congratulations to Mr. Carmelis and foster son Kieran!

And another one of the Orphanage kids was lucky! Little Ms. Patricia Valon (nee Kelly) was adopted by none other than Colin Valon right after his transition to an adult. Congratulations to father and daughter and may your life take a turn for the better now, Patricia!

Another Vezz Island college graduate returned to Pirri Beach: Lizzie von Greifenstein (nee Kaplan). She was welcomed by her sister Ebru and received some financial support to buy a house at Church's Edge for her and her family: Vezz Island college graduate Ludwig von Greifenstein and their daughter Anaya.

Death announcement - R.I.P Mr. Kyle Simmons

Mr. Simmons was unsuspecting when Mr. Grim showed up and told him his time was up. He pleaded and begged but there was no escape and thus he was taken to the eternal party in Sim-heaven. He's missed by his two current wives Athena and Adriana and the children and stepchild: Kayla, Natalie, Sianna, Nkemi, Nkimbe, Nophi and Zima. Rest in Peace, Kyle and enjoy being reunited with your first wife Natasha!

Birth announcements - Issue 4

Mrs. Mary Svensson welcomed Japhet this rotation. He looks just like his older brother Noah and has the same calm and quiet temper it seems. Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Svensson!

This precious little Lady is Anaya von Greifenstein, daughter of Lizzie (nee Kaplan) and husband Ludwig. Both graduated at Vezz Island college and moved in together afterwards, now living at Church's Edge No.1 with their little daughter. Congratulations to the happy parents and their families!

Overshadowed by the sudden death of Mr. Kyle Simmons was the birth of this little man: Zima Reid, son of Adriana Reid and husband Kyle. Congratulations!

Down in Aura Lake another child was born: Namiya Watson, daughter of Cyril and wife Natalie Watson (nee Simmons). Congratulations on the new addition and have fun bonding with her!

Home with the Eastons - Aura Lake

In the last issue of the Pirri Beach news we promised you a home story of young Mr. John Easton and his neighbours, the Watsons. We gave our very best to get this story...and what a surprise awaits you! Well, I took the long drive to Aura Lake. It had been snowing for days over there but finally I reached the little village down the lake. What you see in the first picture is the little house of the Eastons, called 'Founder's home'...

Standing on the doorstep I turned around and took this picture of the small village. As you can see there's not much there. A small church, a few cabins...and that's about it. You start to wonder why a rich heir like John Easton would choose Aura Lake of all places to start a family...

When I rang the doorbell an agitated Mr. Easton opened. "Dr. Watson? Oh no...where's the doctor?"...

He invited me in and it turned out his young wife had gone into labour this exact morning!

They were waiting for the doctor but he never arrived, probably because of the snow. Mrs. Easton sat on the bed, clearly in pain but Mr. Easton and I tried to stay calm and encourage her to breathe properly.

Suddenly Mrs. Easton jumped from the bed and even I began to hope the doctor would arrive very, very soon!

She kept clutching her stomach and huffing and groaning like crazy. Then she knelt back down on the bed and before we could do anything, delivered a screaming little Sim to the world! A girl! I had the honour to cut the cord and after that Mr. Easton took the little girl to the bathroom, washed and dressed her and presented her to his wife and myself.

Please welcome Ms. Leonor Easton. Isn't she a beauty? Well that was an uncalled for highlight that made the rest of the whole story pale in comparison so I decided to drop it and have this exciting birth story for you instead. I hope you agree.

It was already late when I was ready to cross the road and visit the Watsons next door. Their cabin is even smaller than the Easton's but I was welcomed warmly and got some pancakes and hot chocolate despite my being late.

It seems Mr. and Mrs. Watson are very happy to live in Aura Lake but when I saw Mrs. Watson's rounded belly I told them I was already late before Editorial final and left before they had a chance to surprise me with another birth!

I hope you enjoyed this as much as I did. I wish you a good day. - A.D. - foreign reporter

Issue 5 - Pirri Beach report

The young Svenssons thought it was high time for little Noah to get to know his half sister Anna better. The two wives of Olaf Svensson are doing their very best to show Eastonic familiar stability to the girl as they deem her almost neglected due to her mother's profession as a Valonic priestess. The children themselves seem to enjoy their efforts as it means visiting playgrounds and being read to a lot.

At Sean Easton's house late arrival Noemi has mixed up the quiet life of the family quite a bit. Kayla decided to go back to work as soon as her little daughter was born thus she's raised by a Nanny during the day. Little Samuel seems to be adjusting without problems and the same goes for Mr. Easton himself.

Kayla seems to be having more problems. It's clear she never wanted a second child but her husband didn't want to set a false example to the PirriBeach crowd by allowing his wife an abortion.

After all he's preaching at Pirri Beach's 1st Eastonic church every sunday and the Eastonic cult is strictly against abortions.

Colin Valon, who's still living in the old Garcia Rupio house, still misses his foster parents a lot. Nevertheless he's enjoying his youth and living on his own by throwing a lot of parties for family and friends. He's going steady with Sianna Simmons and seems to be very happy with her.

One of his parties had an unhoped-for guest: Mrs. Carlotta Easton. We now know she moved to Aura Lake with husband John and is expecting their first child soon. At the moment our foreign reporters are trying to get a home story of them and their neighbours, the Watsons (Natalie Watson, nee. Simmons and husband Cyril) and the little town in the north.

Last but not least we want to remind you of little Kieran Valon and the other children at the Kaplan orphanage who're still waiting for loving forever families. Please call Ms. Kelly anytime should you decide to let one of the little ones into your heart and home.
