Hazel should sell paintings of exclusively things she's captured on the farm/surrounding areas! Edit: Or even series of "Sims of Henford on Bagley" almost like the "People of New York"
I definitely think Chaz should keep the main house! Not only is it “his” farm, I also think it’d be fun for Trenton and hazel and the kiddos all to squeeze into a smaller house 😂
Yes so Aussie... and the corrugated roof would have been perfect & the song " give me a home among the gum trees". Good to see you happy and well James ❤
You should ask Deli to give Hazel a more farm suitable makeover, her clothes are definitely more suitable for San Myshuno climate than UK. She should still stick to her stylish and artistic ways though!
Nah, I think she should Stick more to what she is wearing now. She's still working in the City and she's not really doing anything farmy - except living there.
I don't agree. He's the owner of the big house, sure, and the whole farm, but he would go live in the new house , and leave the old house for his brother who wants to have a family, and thus need the space. Whatever would Chaz want such a big house for? Better to build himself a new house, more suited to his needs and preferences, closer to the animals, easier to maintain.. I would say, " get the new, modern house for yourself! " but knowing Chaz I don't think it will be modern in that sense. Anyway, why would bigger be better? If you have absolutely no need for the space?
Chaz should definitely stay in main house. Its his farm. Hazel can fully decorate new house. Main house could be used for most of the things and activities but when the night hits they can just get back to their peaceful place and rest.
I disagree. Hazel and Trenton just tried for a baby. They are gonna need more rooms than Chaz would. Especially if Chaz doesn't plan on having kids or even getting married. Plus I think he would rather have the smaller house so he can escape from the craziness of the bigger house. So instead of everyone coming to his, he can escape to his on private place
@@chickennug3872 Im just looking at this from my persepective/experience of how farmlife property sharing kind of works. Plus, I think Hazel would prefer someting more modern that clasic countryhouse they have as main house. Thanks for your opinion.
@@Ramidra I appreciate your opinion too, but Hazel can redecorate the main house to fit, and it's the sims while you can have aspects of real life its really about what works better in game and I feel like Chaz, the single childless man, who also would rather have a more private house, would do better in the new build. Like yes while it was initially Trenton has the farmhand, he has become an equal especially with Hazel helping out on the farm, which wasn't initially the plan.
I kinda like the idea of the smaller house being entirely finished by furniture Hazel and Trenton craft. Of course with a few exceptions, but it adds to the cottage charm if things are homemade.
The story is that Chaz is the owner right? And that Trenton is the farm hand. So I feel Chaz should have the main house. He could have a slightly bigger bedroom, move the office upstairs and extend the living room
I realize that Chaz is the original owner and Trenton was brought on to be the farmhand, but they are family and honestly after all this time they seem to be very close (just look at how they wouldn’t stop talking to one another during the chess/cross stitching time). Chaz loves his farm but he loves the land and his accomplishments more than the house. Besides, he had a really bad relationship with his dad so I can see him really wanting a great life for all his nieces and nephews. He loves the thought of a little solitude from the rest of the family so likely he’s the one who built the second house, but he wants to still be there and watch and help all his nieces and nephews to grow up and learn to love the land as much as he does.
@@cookfamily6141 exactly! It's not that I want to push him aside or anything. Just that I don't see him actually valueing a big house. I think he seems practical and would insist when they have kids that ofc they should have the big house and he "likes living closer to the animalsheds anyways". He just doesnt seem to be a person fussed with having loads of space for the sake of it and they already dont use all the rooms in that big house. I could see him almost getting a little mad at trenton if he insisted chaz should stay in the big house with a sense of "what should I have all these rooms for when you could use them more"
Chaz being an uncle is going to be so cute! And I like the idea that he keeps the house he worked so hard to get after starting in that ally. To save money you could take some of hazels furniture(especially the upgraded stuff) from her old place to put in the new house. Also since she is a designer, the idea that she designed the new house on the farm is a cute idea :)
It would be cool if Hazel did paintings from reference of actual scenes around the farm, or from photos she took in the village! They would be perfect for a gift shop to remember the town by
James: Maybe we should cross-stitch and sell those Stanley Humphrey 🌭: Please don’t Also, quick reminder that items on your inventory are taxable and Hazel doesn’t have the tax discount trait.
I agree with everyone here about Chaz keeping the Main House 🏠. Yes, it is Chaz’s farm but has soon as Trenton came it became Their Farm. I also like the idea that Trenton and Hazel starting their lives on the farm but in a new place. And since Hazel is pregnant ( I saw her motion of the throw-up and baby rattle popup), they can expand their little Aussie cottage. For Chaz, expand the kitchen so the whole family can cook Sunday dinners together at the Main House. And make Kim become a roommate for Chaz at the main house. I'm loving this LP
Trenton didn't bring anything to party when he signed on as farm hand or caretaker? No, he brought no funds or property. It is not "their farm", Chaz is the full owner and all the funds came from him. Trenton started out as a farm hard, working for room and board, he should get a portion of the profits, but not the big house.
@@rachelmarylani okay I understand where you would say that but if Trenton wasn’t a part of the family then the discount from the Frugal Trait wouldn’t have doubled. And Chaz would be paying more for mortgage. Also Trenton is the one who did most of the upgrades of the farm, in IRL they don’t do that for free. Because becoming a two person farm business helped both in one way or another. Also I never said that Trenton should get the Main House, since Hazel and him are a couple they should have their own space and that’s the small Aussie cottage.
Hey James, welcome back! Brazilian viewer here :) I thought of a couple sugestions. So here they go: For the Main House: - Upstairs: a master suite for Chaz (he deserves it); a big full bathroom (tub, shower, kids chest with water toys...); a big office now that they have the store, the farm, kids documents, personal and pets docs - Dowstairs: maybe an open living, dining and kitchen so they can all hangout together and have a great time (Chaz would want to give them what he's never had). For the Second House (thinking about Trenton and Hazel): - since there's so much in the main house, their space could be focused on the bedrooms. Perhaps a simple small kitchen - for midnight sneaky snacks - and a bigger balcony or garden space with seating to enjoy the morning view with a cup of coffee (and a baby in her arms for Hazel). For the Store: - Upstairs could be Hazel interior design and painting office space. Well... said a couple ideas/sugestions but seem to be way more. Maybe I'm too invested... :S
It would be cool if Hazel picked up knitting and cross-stitching so she could knit baby onesies. Then she could have a home business selling her creations.
Chaz should keep the main house. I like the idea of Trenton building a new home for hazel when he finds out she’s pregnant. Gifting her a home for their family
That's why I think that it is best for Chaz. He would want more privacy and his own place away from family. So he can go to them, but he can also escape rather than kicking his family out.
Same here, it almost looked like it had it's own farmyard area, enclosed by the shed and the background building. A lot of farms I've been to in the UK have that sort of layout.
I was deeply saddened when he got rid of the debug trees. It added a layer of privacy. And I too feel like the small house is more of a Chaz thing, unless he plans on kids.
James I'm defending my thesis tomorrow and I've spent the last two months writing and studying and watching your vids in between to stay sane 😂❤️ so please if you see this comment root for me!! 😭🤞
Aww awesome, very best of luck, though you have something even better, you know your subject! Do whatever you can to relax in advance and you'll ace it!
I feel like the new house should be Hazels and Trentons. This is Chaz's farm and it wouldn't be fair to kick him out of his house. You could always expand the new house to be bigger if you want more kids in future :)
But that just makes more work for James. Chaz is the one that's more focused on the land, I think hed like the smaller house. Plus he can escape to his private house rather than having to kick out his family since they've gotten so close. Plus he would want the best for his nieces and nephews to have that bigger house.
@@lezking5060 But that just adds more work for James. I think Chaz is the kind of guy to want his own smaller space. Especially when Hazel and Trenton start having kids, hes gonna wanna be able to escape to his own private house rather than kicking his family out when he wants privacy.
Okay, the idea of the family harvesting everything in the farm, going to the store, all of them cooking there together some pies and sauces and then selling them is the most heart-warming image.
I love seeing James wearing Kayla’s merch! Also, I definitely think Chaz should stay in the big house. Even though the brother run it together, Chaz was the one to start the farm and make it what it is today. I think it would be kinda cute to have Trenton and Hazel in the small house with their baby. I think Hazel could make it really pretty on the inside!
Great episode I love the store portion.. Trenton should live in that house you built, which I like, and raise his family there. I think you should sell more crafted items by Hazel, and Chaz should build gardening bots to sell at the store.
Chaz should keep the big house. He can just host his niblings should they crop up and run outta room at the small house. Plus it'd be fun to see Hazel's style there since the farmhouse already kinda has one.
For the store I'd have Chaz cook up all the produce/make pies, Trenton makes stuff at the woodworking table and hazel makes cross stitch because she's creative!
I started a game with a single sim and a cat. I’ve played with tons of cats in the past but this time was nuts. She ran away and when she came back she was puking everywhere. I gave her a vet treat. Nothing happened. So come to find out she’s pregnant. So she has 4 kittens. So it’s me and 5 cats. Not a day later my cat comes back pregnant again and has 2 more kittens. I have so many cats 😂 all over the counters, scratching furniture, eating the sims food and chicken food. My sims friends hate coming over because the cats try to fight them. All on top of keeping chickens, a cow, birds, bees,rabbits. 😂
Hey James I wanted to tell you that your videos have been the most consistently helpful and comforting thing for me during difficult times. I always go back to the Urbz streams when I'm in the darkest places and they've helped me so much more than you can imagine. Currently I'm going through a really rough breakup & doing my semester of student teaching/interning to be certified as a high school art teacher and my saving grace has been all of your recent uploads
Maybe Chaz can get some roommates if he keeps the big house? They can help with the farm, until he gets a family of his own. I think the small house is super cute and Trenton and Hazel should take it, and the kids' room can have bunkbed(s) for multiple kids if needed. I can't wait to see it furnished!
I humbly request you rotate Chaz’s house back to where it started. I think it was more aesthetically interesting because it contrasted with the main house, plus he had a lovely view of the pond.
I'm more for Hazel and Trenton living in the smaller house, maybe expanding it a little as time goes by, and Hazel definitely renovating it when they need to ! The big house can be Chaz's but also like a family house, so the main floor can for example be common to the whole family, while Chaz has his bedroom upstairs, and the small house would mostly be for bedrooms, small kitchen, bathrooms, and maybe an office (or the office(s) could be on the first floor of the main house)
You can sell your jams and preserves for full price at a retail store! (Even if they are made on your lot with simple living) I am doing it in my current game!
I’m glad you kept ringing the bell even after you said you’d stop 😆 each sale was so exciting! Also I think that Hazel & Trenton should move into the small house and the children inherit the big farm house from Chaz.
Hazel: It sure would be nice to have some kids running around. Trenton: It really would, and also to help out on the farm and with cooking too. Chaz: And that's my cue to go. Hazel: 🥰 Trenton: 🥰 Chaz: 👀 Trenton: Chaz! Chaz: And that's my cue to go.
That farmhouse is just the most amazing nostalgic thing. Reminds me of my grandma's house that she had her whole life until recently. Hers was set on red brick foundations and sat at the top of a hill with paddocks all around. Very Australian ❤
But Hazel and Trenton are gonna have multiple kids, James would just have to keep making the house bigger. Plus Chaz is more focused about the land and animals, I think hed prefer a smaller house.
@@chickennug3872 then they should move when their family expands! Not kick someone out of their OWN house that they earned after being homeless, it’s not fair. Not up for debate
no. Trenton is his BROTHER and has been doing equal (and sometimes more) work on the farm for a long time now. Hes not just some farmhand, hes a partner
I really love the house you built too! The whole Aussie feel of it, in particular with the roof and chimney, reminds me so much of the McCain corn cob advert (Minus the second story of course LOL) "Marge! Marge!!! The rains are 'ere" 😂🙌
I'm pretty sure that the plan was to put the crafted toilet in the outhouse and then move the entire outhouse to the back of the lot by the wind turbines. 🙂
1: Chaz should stay in the main house since its been his farm from the start. 2: I like the rather inoffensive sale bell :P its not exactly loud. I've missed seeing your excitement for this let's play while you were gone but hope you had a nice break 💜
James and Deli must have made some pretty good memories at that little house, because they both fell in love with it. It's cute and all, but I feel like it holds some magic for them beyond its architecture :)
When I do chimneys like that, I tend to recess them into the bump out and raise it up on a platform. That way there is more room in the living room area for other things.
I could see Trenton and Hazel starting in the small house together, starting out as a couple. Later on Chaz may want to switch with them when the family is bigger. I could see him being happy in a small place and enjoying the privacy as things become more bustling with littles around. Plus that would mean more renovations for Hazel!
I personally feel like Chaz should stay in the main house. whether or not Trenton wants to grow his family with Hazel, the fact that they are brothers mean that there should be some degree of respect for Chaz who bought the land from nothing and built the house from the ground up. realistically things like this won't go down easily especially after how hard Chaz worked to get to that point, so if Trenton and Hazel are planning to expand their family, just make the second house bigger instead.
I see them all as one big family so It doesn't make a difference who lives where, I like the idea of the big house being a family house tho and the small one being more of a guest house/place to get away from the family. If Chaz is feeling overwhelmed or wants some alone time then he can go somewhere secluded and quiet for a while and same with all them, with Hazel maybe she might want one of the rooms in the small house to be an art studio, somewhere just for her. It can be something they all share but most of the time, it's the family house that's the busy and full one, while the small house is more practical.
Oh Hi Patchy! Glad to see this pop up this morning! I love the idea for the gift shop and it did well. Can't wait to see where this goes. I think you should leave Chaz in the big house.
I think chaz chould Jeep the farmhouse and hazel and Trenton can start their Life in the small one and Build it up when they Need More Space. Just like chaz did with the Main house😊
James: we might get Trenton in to help at the farm but we won’t pay much attention to him Also James: Trenton and Hazel are taking Chaz’s house and raising their family on the farm.
This is making me miss my grandparents farm out in the country. Screams old Aus country house. It was sold when Pa passed, but watching this I would pay anything to go back
I’m new to Josh’s community but I really love how interactive it is, I love how beautifully diverse and overall respectful these comment sections are even with opinion differences. Happy to be here!
Also!! Make a club with Trentn, Chaz and Hazel. This way when you get enough points you canbuy the logic skill building perk! It will help with whatever skill you want to go up faster! .. they have all the skills! even kids stuff like mental and homework!
Love love love the new little house on the farm. Brings back memories from when I grew up on a british farm. We did something like this a few years ago, we had some outbuildings in the garden, one was a gym and the other was a playroom for me as a kid, but when we grew up, my parents converted it into a 2 bed bungalow that my grandparents moved into. My grandad died a few months ago, but my grandma still lives there and she said it's the best thing they ever did and wished they did it sooner.
I love when sims is just being... sims :D With all the random weird things, robots, scarecrows, cowplants... It's so much fun. I get that some people want hyperrealistic gameplay etc., but them saying that "we all want a more realistic gameplay" is a total lie. I love this weird part of the game :D
Ohh you can have her specialize in reference paintings of the farm! Then when you start using the shop to sell crafted shit you can decorate it with her paintings!
You should furnish the house with stuff from Hazel’s house. It makes sense to combine their stuff because that’s what happens in real life.
Totally agree!
Or stuff that Hazel steals
its not gonna fit the style of the house though. And I imagine she's changed her taste since deciding to move to the farm life
@@karinaszubert that’s usually how I justify my sims styles changing 😂
Hazel should sell paintings of exclusively things she's captured on the farm/surrounding areas!
Edit: Or even series of "Sims of Henford on Bagley" almost like the "People of New York"
I love that idea!
I love this idea!! I might have to have a sim do that!
I love the idea of Sims of Henford on Badley!
I definitely think Chaz should keep the main house! Not only is it “his” farm, I also think it’d be fun for Trenton and hazel and the kiddos all to squeeze into a smaller house 😂
No i dont agree I feel like the kids deserteurs Some space
@@evacap2654 I feel like autocorrect did a very weird thing to your comment xD
In my opinion sim toddlers are actually easier to care for in a smaller house lol
@@alvinkhoo4313 I agree. It's easier for them to get around and it's easier to keep track of them.
@@evacap2654 The kids could live with uncle Chaz and aunty Kim
I’m Australian myself and seeing that little Aussie cottage style house with the verandah and corrugated roof was so nostalgic and spot on haha
yes omg! it felt so nostalgic!!
Yes so Aussie... and the corrugated roof would have been perfect & the song " give me a home among the gum trees". Good to see you happy and well James ❤
Yep as an Aussie living in the US that made me so homesick and happy to see.
As a Brit living in NZ it’s a weird smashing together of the two styles I know well!
My Aussie husband is not a simmer but I showed him the little farmhouse and it made him homesick! He said it’s very authentic.
Lilsimie when she watches this video:
“Wow, James’ is wearing my merch”
*James says that he’ll let the Cowplants die*
“MUTINYYYY!!”
Hahahahaha
Lol
You should ask Deli to give Hazel a more farm suitable makeover, her clothes are definitely more suitable for San Myshuno climate than UK. She should still stick to her stylish and artistic ways though!
Love this idea
I agree!
That would be so good!
Nah, I think she should Stick more to what she is wearing now. She's still working in the City and she's not really doing anything farmy - except living there.
could you put the fireplace “inside” the chimney you made? it would give a couple more squares of space
YES I immediately thought that as well
yes, spare some of us the eye twitch from the big couch being cramped awkwardly behind it
I came in to the comments to check if anyone else had said it yet! It definitely should be recessed in the chimney breast
i think he should do that! i was thinking about it the whole time bc that's what he did in hazel's house
@@wee_haggis6374 same. Cause that’s the whole point.
The irony of James saying he’s gonna let the cow plant die while wearing Simsie merch. 🤣🤣
chaz should definitely keep the big house as he’s the one who literally built it from nothing, anything else would be blasphemy 💅
Agreed
I concur
I dont agree

james talking about killing a cowplant while wearing a lilsimsie hoodie..
Bet he stole it from Deli 😂😛😝
It’s everything!
I like the idea of Hazel making home decor, as it's a natural evolution from being a home decorator. Sculptures, paintings, candles, furniture, etc
Chaz should definitely stay in main house. Its his farm. Hazel can fully decorate new house. Main house could be used for most of the things and activities but when the night hits they can just get back to their peaceful place and rest.

I agree with you both it's upsetting me so much I may quit watching this This was supposed to be about Chaz technology Trenton would be a teenager
Ahh good point. I was thinking you'd want to have the baby in the big house but it was Chaz's house originally.

Yes!!! I’m still hoping he continues the rags to riches extreme too 😁
Same!!!

Same. First thing in the morning - I checked for his videos
Chaz being an uncle is going to be so cute! And I like the idea that he keeps the house he worked so hard to get after starting in that ally.

If you click on the geodes you can refine them, like fossils, they're usually worth around $50+
I love the way your LPs are one long legacy challenge.
The lot is certainly large enough for an extra house. Glad to see you back! Sounds like you enjoyed your break.

For the Main House:
- Upstairs: a master suite for Chaz (he deserves it); a big full bathroom (tub, shower, kids chest with water toys...); a big office now that they have the store, the farm, kids documents, personal and pets docs
- Dowstairs: maybe an open living, dining and kitchen so they can all hangout together and have a great time (Chaz would want to give them what he's never had).
For the Second House (thinking about Trenton and Hazel):
- since there's so much in the main house, their space could be focused on the bedrooms. Perhaps a simple small kitchen - for midnight sneaky snacks - and a bigger balcony or garden space with seating to enjoy the morning view with a cup of coffee (and a baby in her arms for Hazel).
For the Store:
- Upstairs could be Hazel interior design and painting office space.
Well... said a couple ideas/sugestions but seem to be way more. Maybe I'm too invested... :S
Yes! I love this idea
You can "un-fix" a dog after it's been spayed/neutered in sims, and consider this: you should because we love chaos.
I was about to comment that, puppies would be cute! But since James is the one playing it is obviously his choice😀👍🐶
James in a lilsimsie hoodie is giving me life
I laughed SO hard.
It would be cool if Hazel picked up knitting and cross-stitching so she could knit baby onesies. Then she could have a home business selling her creations.

It just looked more realistic too with the porch facing the pond.

You can use the wool for knitting, and knit animal clothing yourself.

Plus he can escape to his private house rather than having to kick out his family since they've gotten so close. Plus he would want the best for his nieces and nephews to have that bigger house.
Yeah - the big house is Chas'... If the other two need a bigger house, then Hazel can do an "Add Level" renovation, to improve it!
@@lezking5060 But that just adds more work for James. I think Chaz is the kind of guy to want his own smaller space. Especially when Hazel and Trenton start having kids, hes gonna wanna be able to escape to his own private house rather than kicking his family out when he wants privacy.
Okay, the idea of the family harvesting everything in the farm, going to the store, all of them cooking there together some pies and sauces and then selling them is the most heart-warming image.
Awww, precious!
I LOVE THE HOOOOODIEEE!
Pink looks great on you James!
It's lilsimsie's merch :)
@@simelly_6813 I knoooowwww. Super cute.
Welcome back James! We’ve missed you, hope everything is well now! Heard it’s your anniversary soon, don’t forget to get Deli something good! 😂
Get her Batuu merch!
Lol love that
I love seeing James wearing Kayla’s merch! Also, I definitely think Chaz should stay in the big house. Even though the brother run it together, Chaz was the one to start the farm and make it what it is today. I think it would be kinda cute to have Trenton and Hazel in the small house with their baby. I think Hazel could make it really pretty on the inside!
You have no idea how much I missed this. I look forward to these videos!
Great episode I love the store portion.. Trenton should live in that house you built, which I like, and raise his family there. I think you should sell more crafted items by Hazel, and Chaz should build gardening bots to sell at the store.
Chaz should keep the big house. He can just host his niblings should they crop up and run outta room at the small house. Plus it'd be fun to see Hazel's style there since the farmhouse already kinda has one.
For the store I'd have Chaz cook up all the produce/make pies, Trenton makes stuff at the woodworking table and hazel makes cross stitch because she's creative!
I started a game with a single sim and a cat. I’ve played with tons of cats in the past but this time was nuts. She ran away and when she came back she was puking everywhere. I gave her a vet treat. Nothing happened. So come to find out she’s pregnant. So she has 4 kittens. So it’s me and 5 cats. Not a day later my cat comes back pregnant again and has 2 more kittens. I have so many cats 😂 all over the counters, scratching furniture, eating the sims food and chicken food. My sims friends hate coming over because the cats try to fight them. All on top of keeping chickens, a cow, birds, bees,rabbits. 😂
Hey James I wanted to tell you that your videos have been the most consistently helpful and comforting thing for me during difficult times. I always go back to the Urbz streams when I'm in the darkest places and they've helped me so much more than you can imagine. Currently I'm going through a really rough breakup & doing my semester of student teaching/interning to be certified as a high school art teacher and my saving grace has been all of your recent uploads
sending love and support your way!!
❤️
I think Trenton and hazel should definitely live in the new house. Chaz deserves his farm house
Maybe Chaz can get some roommates if he keeps the big house? They can help with the farm, until he gets a family of his own. I think the small house is super cute and Trenton and Hazel should take it, and the kids' room can have bunkbed(s) for multiple kids if needed. I can't wait to see it furnished!
I LOVE the bell plus the excitement for every single sale 🤣
I humbly request you rotate Chaz’s house back to where it started. I think it was more aesthetically interesting because it contrasted with the main house, plus he had a lovely view of the pond.
I'm more for Hazel and Trenton living in the smaller house, maybe expanding it a little as time goes by, and Hazel definitely renovating it when they need to ! The big house can be Chaz's but also like a family house, so the main floor can for example be common to the whole family, while Chaz has his bedroom upstairs, and the small house would mostly be for bedrooms, small kitchen, bathrooms, and maybe an office (or the office(s) could be on the first floor of the main house)
You can sell your jams and preserves for full price at a retail store! (Even if they are made on your lot with simple living) I am doing it in my current game!
who wouldn't love James for his choice of sweaters? IRL CAS skills on point
I’m glad you kept ringing the bell even after you said you’d stop 😆 each sale was so exciting!
Also I think that Hazel & Trenton should move into the small house and the children inherit the big farm house from Chaz.
Hazel: It sure would be nice to have some kids running around.
Trenton: It really would, and also to help out on the farm and with cooking too.
Chaz: And that's my cue to go.
Hazel: 🥰
Trenton: 🥰
Chaz: 👀
Trenton: Chaz!
Chaz: And that's my cue to go.
In my experience, the observatory is actually really good for getting the logic skill up, totally worth it!
And for getting more alien babies from abductions lol
Please puppies! You can reverse either spay or neuter at the vet clinic. It would be so cute to have the new baby grow up with dogs
That farmhouse is just the most amazing nostalgic thing. Reminds me of my grandma's house that she had her whole life until recently. Hers was set on red brick foundations and sat at the top of a hill with paddocks all around. Very Australian ❤
My hometown’s downtown is filled with tons of renovated converted houses turns shops - Gifts on Bagley reminds me fondly of that. Love this LP
Hazel and Trenton should live in the small house. Trenton is just the farmhand after all
But Hazel and Trenton are gonna have multiple kids, James would just have to keep making the house bigger. Plus Chaz is more focused about the land and animals, I think hed prefer a smaller house.
he hasn't been just the farmhand for a long long time now let's be real now
poor chaz ... his younger alien brother swoop in to steal his girl, his house, and his let's play 🤧
@@chickennug3872 then they should move when their family expands! Not kick someone out of their OWN house that they earned after being homeless, it’s not fair. Not up for debate
no. Trenton is his BROTHER and has been doing equal (and sometimes more) work on the farm for a long time now. Hes not just some farmhand, hes a partner
I really love the house you built too! The whole Aussie feel of it, in particular with the roof and chimney, reminds me so much of the McCain corn cob advert (Minus the second story of course LOL)
"Marge! Marge!!! The rains are 'ere" 😂🙌
Awwwwww he’s wearing lilsimsie merch 🥺 it’s cool to see interaction and references between you tubers
You could maybe turn the two empty rooms in the main house into an art studio for Hazel, like she had in her previous house!
I'm pretty sure that the plan was to put the crafted toilet in the outhouse and then move the entire outhouse to the back of the lot by the wind turbines. 🙂
1: Chaz should stay in the main house since its been his farm from the start.
2: I like the rather inoffensive sale bell :P its not exactly loud.
I've missed seeing your excitement for this let's play while you were gone but hope you had a nice break 💜
first of all: welcome back!
second of all: that hoodie is my life
It's lilsimsie's merch :)
I like to image they have a guy hired at EA just to watch James’s video so they can find all the problems in sims.
They aren't doing a very good job then lol
@@JamesTurnerYT oooh burn!!!
@@JamesTurnerYT hahaha but they did fix the sniffing air at odd hours problem. 🤣
James and Deli must have made some pretty good memories at that little house, because they both fell in love with it. It's cute and all, but I feel like it holds some magic for them beyond its architecture :)
When I do chimneys like that, I tend to recess them into the bump out and raise it up on a platform. That way there is more room in the living room area for other things.
I could see Trenton and Hazel starting in the small house together, starting out as a couple. Later on Chaz may want to switch with them when the family is bigger. I could see him being happy in a small place and enjoying the privacy as things become more bustling with littles around. Plus that would mean more renovations for Hazel!
Trenton and Hazel should have the new house, so Hazel can decorate according to her more modern sensibilities!
maybe one of the rooms upstairs could be for the dogs, with beds, toys, their food, etc :)
loved the video btw
The sweatshirt choice is on point 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 love that you’re repping Lil Simsie 🥰
I love the little house! Maybe as a house warming present Hazel could go around and steal furniture to give to Chaz 😂
james's wearing lilsimsies' sensitive merch oh my god this is the cutest crossover ever
I personally feel like Chaz should stay in the main house. whether or not Trenton wants to grow his family with Hazel, the fact that they are brothers mean that there should be some degree of respect for Chaz who bought the land from nothing and built the house from the ground up. realistically things like this won't go down easily especially after how hard Chaz worked to get to that point, so if Trenton and Hazel are planning to expand their family, just make the second house bigger instead.
I see them all as one big family so It doesn't make a difference who lives where, I like the idea of the big house being a family house tho and the small one being more of a guest house/place to get away from the family. If Chaz is feeling overwhelmed or wants some alone time then he can go somewhere secluded and quiet for a while and same with all them, with Hazel maybe she might want one of the rooms in the small house to be an art studio, somewhere just for her. It can be something they all share but most of the time, it's the family house that's the busy and full one, while the small house is more practical.
this!
i agree with this! the main house is big enough for them all to live in plus kids, no real need for a new one imo
Oh Hi Patchy! Glad to see this pop up this morning! I love the idea for the gift shop and it did well. Can't wait to see where this goes. I think you should leave Chaz in the big house.
I think chaz chould Jeep the farmhouse and hazel and Trenton can start their Life in the small one and Build it up when they Need More Space. Just like chaz did with the Main house😊
James wearing Kayla's merch makes my heart happy.
Someone's probably already mentioned this, but if you click on a finished cross stitch, you can convert it into a wall mounted version.
Use the island living roof it’s rusty as and matches those awnings
I think that is the one that makes your bills way more expensive but I might be wrong
@@msaliceusername ohhh gotcha
James: we might get Trenton in to help at the farm but we won’t pay much attention to him
Also James: Trenton and Hazel are taking Chaz’s house and raising their family on the farm.
30:35 When the canning stuff just teleported onto that shelf I couldn't stop laughing my head off
Hazel biking through to go have woohoo 😂
I love that James is wearing the sensitive hoodie. I love how you guys support each other rather than compete and be petty.
Please push the fireplace in the living room into the two tiles of chimney you built outside!
Yes!
This is making me miss my grandparents farm out in the country. Screams old Aus country house. It was sold when Pa passed, but watching this I would pay anything to go back
I think Chaz sould definitely have the main house since he’s the one who worked hard for it in the beginning
I’m new to Josh’s community but I really love how interactive it is, I love how beautifully diverse and overall respectful these comment sections are even with opinion differences. Happy to be here!
Also!! Make a club with Trentn, Chaz and Hazel. This way when you get enough points you canbuy the logic skill building perk! It will help with whatever skill you want to go up faster! .. they have all the skills! even kids stuff like mental and homework!
Love love love the new little house on the farm. Brings back memories from when I grew up on a british farm. We did something like this a few years ago, we had some outbuildings in the garden, one was a gym and the other was a playroom for me as a kid, but when we grew up, my parents converted it into a 2 bed bungalow that my grandparents moved into. My grandad died a few months ago, but my grandma still lives there and she said it's the best thing they ever did and wished they did it sooner.
This is what happens when you get land and a farm. Before you know it you're building a whole family compound.
Glad your back. I think Chaz should keep the big house and Hazel and Trenton have the cute little house.
When there are variants (sims that are exactly the same) you should play the music/soundtrack from Loki
I love when sims is just being... sims :D With all the random weird things, robots, scarecrows, cowplants... It's so much fun. I get that some people want hyperrealistic gameplay etc., but them saying that "we all want a more realistic gameplay" is a total lie. I love this weird part of the game :D
Even if it makes more sense for Chaz to have a smaller house I feel like it'd be wrong for him to do that. Farmhouse was his and he should keep it IMO
You could move the fireplace back into the "chimney" alcove to make more space?
Your back it’s been a long and hard wait for the next episode but hope your all well it’s good to see u back x
Ohh you can have her specialize in reference paintings of the farm! Then when you start using the shop to sell crafted shit you can decorate it with her paintings!
Rags to Riches part 29. Total money in the bank: $1
Have a coop full of golden hen, two houses and a gift shop.
Money: $1.
I like how every time you ring the bell on a sale I find myself clapping.
