Austin Dominguez

Household Members: Austin, Job: Rock god his wife Estelle Job: World class ballet dancer
Children (in birth order): Asia, Africa, Austin Miguel II, Atani, Suki and Ariel (pictured above).
Even though it was winter there were still plenty of leaves to be picked up. Now that the harvesting season was over for Austin and Estelle they now concentrated on picking leaves. It was all they could do to make sure their compost bin stayed full. Even though it took a lot to make the piles of leaves...Estelle could not help but throw some around.
Winter also brought Ariel closer to her friend Frances J. Ariel had a mad crush on Frances and it seemed that he too was starting to like her as well. Frances did manage to keep his distance since he was a college student and Ariel a senior in high school. Frances could not wait to have Ariel attend his college. In college he would be able to tell Atani how he really feels about her. For right now this hug was enough to keep both of them content.
Austin was sick and tired of coming home to find Ariel huggin with Frances J. He had already spoken to Ariel and had specifically told her the rules. He never suffered this much with his other children. For some reason Ariel was spoiled. Soon enough he and Estelle would make sure that she stopped feeling so spoiled. Ariel pleaded with her dad. She even mentioned how she was a senior now and soon would graduate and go to college. Austin was not dumb. He knew that once she was in college then he would not be able to monitor 100%. But during his watch while she was at home..well she would do what he said and that was final.
All was not bad since Austin did manage to save a good penny. They were trying to find ways to investing their money. He still remembered the days when they were so much in debt and now they can oficially afford to pay for Ariel's college tuition without having to get a loan. This was more happiness than he ever thought possible. To celebrate his good fortune he bought an electric guitar.
Suki, Hayden and Miguel stopped by to have dinner at the parents house. They were happy to see that their daughter was back safe and sound from her honey moon. Estelle was concerned because she still had not heard from Asia or Africa lately.
Austin received a huge promotion from work. The promotion was worth $48,000. Austin needed to invest in something so he decided to buy a vacation home. He searched for what seemed forever but he finally found one.

It was located on Twikki Island and it was a beautiful summer home. Now that they were elders Austin kept telling Estelle that they should retire. Now that they had a summer home they could live there and be happily ever after. Estelle couldnt tear herself away from her job. So for now Austin would only dream about living here full time.
The best part was the open patio that they had. Austin felt inspired and began to paint.
"this is the good life." said Austin.

soon they returned home. Upon answering their email and phone messages they found that Frances J had called several times. Estelle and Austin sat Ariel down and explained to her how important it was for her to finish high school. They explained their expectations and
Ariel felt that she was meeting them. When Estelle saw that Ariel was not paying attention she decided to put off further discussion.
"How in the world did you get this sunburned?" asked Asia.
"I laid out for too long. You should really see this place. Its so beautiful. Its a shame mo and dad got it right when im about to go to college. Totally sucks by the way. " said Ariel.
they talked and then Asia approached the subject Ariel was hoping to avoid. Asia was contacted by their mom Estelle to talk to Ariel about Frances. Ariel explained to her sister all that was going on and promised that she would take it easy with Frances. Ariel started to daze and could only think,"someo ne anyone get me out of here!!"
