Time for Another Storyline Overview

It's that time again.  There are a lot of new readers and I figured it's time for another storyline overview.   Here is a link to the first overview I did November 2011.  This will give you the basics of Morristown.  Now we will pick up where we left off.

Since November 2011, Rod and Danielle have gotten married and are just back from their mini honeymoon. They do plan to go on a longer honeymoon in the near future.  Danielle's mom has been in town helping since right before the wedding.  She is due to return back home to Florida, pretty soon.

Rod and Tony were reunited with their dad, Freeman Taylor, after seven years of his mysterious disappearance.  Unfortunately, this reunion disrupted Rod and Danielle's wedding reception.

We have seen an influx of new residents to Morristown.  Let's take a look.  First up is Adele, Michael and Sydney.  Adele is an old high school buddy of Danielle's, who was roped into being her wedding planner.  She did a fantastic job.  She and her husband, Michael Jordan, are relocating from Chicago, with their toddler daughter, Sydney.  They have been too busy to take a family photo yet, but it's coming.

Adele's older sister, Linda, followed her to Virginia.  She wanted to get away from her ex-husband, Mark.  Marital issues took a toll on their relationship.

Next up is India.  She is the new hairdresser at The Mane Event.  If you recall, Kara is the owner of the salon, but also a singer, who performs around town with her husband.

We got to meet Racquel's little sister, Faith and her mom Lauren.  Faith is in her second year at the local college.  Lauren is part owner of Hotel Monaco, where Rod and Danielle's wedding reception took place.

Halle was able to happily move on after her break up with Darius.  She is now dating Diego.  So far so good.

A new fashion designer opened up a studio in town.  Her name is Debbie and she is married to Dr. Sheppard.  She has a daughter, Kathryn, 12, and a son Patrick, 16.

There are more characters that I will introduce in part two of the overview update.  For now, let's take a look at some of the new businesses.
Ni'Chalet's Boutique.  Owned by Racquel Howard.

Chang Realty.  Owned by Chang and Sunni Lee. 

Jordan's Grocery Store.  Owned by Jordan, business woman extraordinaire.  You will meet her in the next overview update.

The new daycare opened up.  Owned by Cassandra.  It has moved since initially opening.  You will see those pictures soon.

For now, I think that is enough.  I don't want to overwhelm you with too much information.  The second part of this overview should be posted within a week or two.  The Character page has been updated to reflect this post.  More updates will happen with the next overview.  Hopefully this will help get you caught up on the happenings in Morristown.  Thanks again for your continued support!

Don't forget to check out the pool action post that happened late yesterday.

  5. Thanks! I can't forget about the wedding or other important events, but I often don't remember all those details about businesses and their owners. It's a very useful post.

    1. Dukasha - I can't believe how quickly time is passing. It felt like just yesterday when I did the first overview. By the next overview post, I should have the character page 95% updated. I'm leaving a little wiggle room for dolls that might show up near the time I am doing the update.

  6. Linda was married to MC Hammer? : )

    I just bought MC at an antique mart for 9.99 and I got Ice Tea doll too for the same price! Fab deals there.

    1. pattidolls - Yes, Linda was married to MC Hammer. I've never seen the Ice T doll. Great deals. I got my MC Hammer for $5 at a doll show a couple of months ago. I'm glad he's here.

  7. This storyline overview was helpful for a veteran reader, like me. It's easy to forget who is related to whom or knows whom when they're absent from stories for a while. Thanks for the refresher.

    1. DBG - I forget sometimes too. It's a lot to keep up with at times. That's why I like scenes where I can put a lot of people in them. Gives me more opportunities to have friends and relatives interact.

    1. Georgia Girl - I know what it's like to try to come in the middle of a storyline. Not fun. So I need to do these a little more often so these characters will be showing up in your sleep. LOL!

    1. Toni - Welcome to my blog. Glad I could clear up a little of the confusion. I tend to go at lightning speed sometimes, not realizing how many new characters have come on board. My goal is to spend time on the characters that are already there.
