All Kinds of Money And No Place To Live...

               
I had to create a house for Dr. X and his family. There is a maid in the house so I made her bedroom downstairs isolated from the rest of the family. There is four kids in the family so I made two bedrooms for two to share each. I gave Dr. X and his wife a master bedroom for themselves. I also made a pool in the backyard with a deck around it and made a two car garage. I made a big kitchen and dinning room because they have a big family. I also made a family room for the whole family to hang out in.
