The Di Grisogno’s of Monte Aquila:
Count Leonardo, Contessa Shasta, James the Butler, Ellen the au pair, Taïga and Rowan
Monte Vista / Monte Aquila Dell’Valle
Monte Vista is an EA world from the store:
“A winding road leads to the ancient walled town of Monte Vista, perched on top of a hill overlooking the Ocean. The stunning landscape with long lines of towering cypress trees and rolling vineyards, dotted with magnificent villas enjoying sweeping views, is an invitation to art loving sims.”
I have chosen to call it Monte Aquila Dell’Valle, and it is situated in Tuscany, not far from the Mediterranean Sea.
The Di Grisogno Mansion
Leonardo’s ancestors built their home in the shadow of the towering walls of Monte Aquila Dell’Valle…
… with a magnificent view over the countryside and the sea.
The Grey Witches 
Italy now? Goodness, they are really travelers.
Bad mom’s married to an Italian count, so… Geez, these chapters are to be rewritten later this summer. Bear with me, they are awful!
Are they? Nah, mine are awful. I especially cringe with generation 1, so I avoid rereading them. Struggles of writers, lol.
It’s actually rather fun to remodel the story some, get some depth in both story and characters. Then I take new pics with poseplayer, as I didn’t even know it existed back then!
I love the portrait! That is exactly what I mean by my portrait sets are designed to be interchangeable according to your family dynamic. Thank you for using them!
