It was Thursday evening, May 15, 1986 around 7:30 with Lori and her kids Lincoln and Lily are getting the things they need while spending a few days with the Santiago family and Lori was calling Bobby on the phone.
"Hey, Bobby. I've got some exciting news for you," Lori said to the phone.
"What is is, honey?" Bobby said to the phone.
"My kids and I are going to be spending the weekend with you and Ronnie Anne," Lori said to the phone.
"Wow, that's great. That'll give us plenty of time for Linc and Ni-Ni to spend some time with one another," Bobby said on the phone.
Meanwhile, outside the room, Lincoln and Lily were heading downstairs with their suitcases.
"Yeah, and hopefully we can all hang out together, maybe have a family movie night and..." Lori said to the phone before she stopped and turned to the viewers, "Oh hi. If you guys are wondering what my kids and I are doing, here's the thing," Lori then pulls out a calendar indicating that she and her kids will be spending the next three days with their sister Ronnie Anne. They will be spending all of Friday, Saturday and Sunday there, "My kids and I are going to be spending the whole weekend with Ronnie Anne and Bobby and we'll both be coming back home the following Monday morning" she puts the calendar away and grabs her suitcase full of clothes.
"All right. It's going to be lots of good fun this weekend. To the living room," Lori shouted as she heads on out the bedroom door closing it behind her and afterwards she slides down the stairway and sees that Lincoln and Lily are all set and ready, "Oh, there you are, kids."
"Hey, Mom! You were... getting our stuff out to the van, weren't you?" Lincoln asked.
"Mm-hmm. Just like that," Lori replied, "Just can't wait to spent the weekend with Bobby at his house."
"Oh, uh, alright. I'm all set," Lincoln said.
"Goo!" Lily agreed before Rita shows up next to them.
"Okay, everybody, are you all set to spend the weekend with Ronnie Anne and Bobby?"
"I sure am!" Lincoln responded.
"Yay! Wiwy want to see Daddy!" Lily cheered.
"Oh, definitely, I just couldn't wait to get some time away at that peaceful house," Lori said with worry as Lily nodded her head in agreement.
"Well, let's get going then," Rita said as Lori, Lincoln and Lily all head on to the van and they put their luggage in the seats before getting in with Rita getting ready to start the van, " Okay, you everybody. Are we ready?"
"Yes, mama," Lori responded.
"More than ever," Lincoln replied.
"All right, let's go," Rita said as the van pulls out of the driveway and onto the road about to head off to the Santiagos for the weekend.
Meanwhile, on the road to Ronnie Anne's house.
"Wow. Can you imagine it, kids? It's going to be fun," Lori said to Lincoln and Lily, "Think about this. A whole weekend of peace and quiet. Just me, the kids, and beautiful Bobby."
"Yeah. You get the idea," Lincoln said to her.
Meanwhile, while getting closer to arriving at the Santiago house.
"All right, fellas. We're almost there. I just want to let you three know that your father and I are going to be back home for the weekend to watch over the other girls and we'll both make sure they don't get into any trouble while you're both there," Rita explained.
"Ok, we got you," Lori responded.
At the Santiago House, it is almost 8:00 P.M., Ronnie Anne was watching some TV with Bobby, Maria and Arturo when they notice a van pulling into their driveway. They notice that it's Lori and Lincoln getting out of the van.
"Well, here they are, guys," Ronnie Anne said happily.
Outside at the front view of the house, Lincoln, Lily, Lori and Rita are heading up to the front door.
"Well, kids. It looks like we're here," Lori said.
"Not to worry. I'll greet them with a smile on our faces," Rita said before she rings the doorbell. A few moments later, Maria is the one who gets the door and is pleased to see Rita with a smile on their face alongside the naive Lori and her whimsical son Lincoln and daughter Lily.
"Ooh. You must be someone I haven't seen in a while," Maria said in surprise.
"Well, my name's Rita Loud, and this here is Lori, Lincoln and Lily," Rita replied.
"I'm their mother, by the way," Lori replied, "So what's shaking tonight?"
"Why don't you all come inside?" Maria asked.
"Um, alright," Lori said as they all come inside, carrying their suitcases and Lori's purse inside. They are then inside the living room with the others.
"So you must be the matriarch of the Loud family. My name's Maria, this is my husband Arturo. And this is Bobby, he's my son here, and this is my uhhh... granddaughter, Ronnie Anne since she is roughly Lincoln's age.
"Such a real honor to see my brother, younger sister and mother here," Ronnie Anne said about Lincoln and Lily.
"Maria. That's a beautiful name. Just so you know, I'm dropping Lori and her, uh... kids... off to spend the weekend here with you guys," Rita said.
"Boy, how delightful," Maria said peacefully.
"Yes. and I'll be picking them up Monday morning sometime around 10:00 A.M. Oh, and Lori, here's my phone number to where my husband and I live," Rita said as she gives Lori the card revealing the house's phone number (551-6536).
"Well, that very sweet of you, mother," Lori responded.
"Ok, guys, I gotta go back home," Rita said as she gives Lori, Lincoln and Lily a kiss on both of their cheeks, "Bye, Lincoln. Bye, Lily. Be good. And Lori, make sure they don't get into trouble, okay?"
"I will, mother," Lori informed Rita.
"It was nice meeting you, Rita," Maria said as she gets the front door.
"Thanks, Maria, I'll be back to pick them up Monday," Rita said as she heads out the door back to the van and Maria closes it behind her.
"All right. Now this is going to get really good. Ready to have some fun, kids?" Lori asked Lincoln and Lily.
"I sure am, Mom!" Lincoln replied.
"All right, but our fun stuff begins tomorrow because we gotta rest up before then," Lori informed them.
"Well, all right, Mom. I guess that's the case for us then," Lincoln said as they began to grab their luggage.
"Hey, don't worry, boy. I'll help you all out with your things," Ronnie Anne said as she helps out by carrying Lincoln and Lily's luggage up to her room, where Lincoln and Lily will be sleeping for the weekend while Lori carries hers up to Bobby's where she'll sleep for the weekend, finding out that Lincoln will be sleeping with Ronnie Anne for the weekend.
"Um, Ronnie. Are you sure the kids are going to be okay sleeping with you?" Lori asked.
"Why, yes, Mom. They'll be a big help around us while we're here," Ronnie Anne responded.
"Hey, Lori-loo. I'm so glad you both could come here," Bobby said softly to Lori.
"Aw, gee, thanks," Lori said sweetly as she holds on to Bobby, feeling rather awkward, "What would I do without you in our own family?"
Later at 9:00, Lincoln notices this while changing into his pajamas and Ronnie Anne was changing Lily's diaper. Lori then finds out that he noticed.
"Oh, um, eh he he he. Let's do that in our room, honey, while we get some rest for tomorrow," Lori said nervously.
"What better time than now, dear?" Bobby responded as he and Lori both dance to his room with Lori carrying her luggage with her to their room as Ronnie Anne finished changing Lily's diaper and dressed her up in her purple foot pajamas.
"Boy, Mom's got a sense of romance with Dad," Lincoln said.
"I know. It's weird," Ronnie Anne replied.
"Poo-poo," Lily agreed.
"Well, why don't we get some rest? We got a big weekend of fun ahead of us," Lincoln said as he starts getting into bed with Lily and Ronnie Anne starts to yawn.
"Yeah. I'm getting kind of sleepy," Ronnie Anne said as she gets into bed with Lincoln and Lily and they start falling asleep.
Friday, May 16, 1986
Lincoln and Lily both wake up to the smell of some fresh pancakes.
"Hmmm, wow, Lily, I think we kind of smell pancakes cooking for breakfast right now," Lincoln said to Lily as Ronnie Anne was waking up.
"Yeah, I do, too. I just had a really good sleep last night, am I right?" Ronnie Anne asked.
"Yeah, you sure are, Ronnie Anne," Lincoln said before Lori called for them.
"KIDS! BREAKFAST IS READY!" Lori shouted and they notice Lori calling for them and they immediately head downstairs to the dining room table with Bobby, Maria, Arturo and Lori already at the table. They then notice their plates are filled with pancakes.
"Pancake!" Lily said in surprise.
"I can smell the pancakes coming from the frying pan," Lincoln said happily.
"Well, let's dig in," Ronnie Anne said as they all start eating their pancakes, knowing how delicious they are thanks to Lori's surprisingly amazing cooking skills.
"Mmm, mmm, mmm. This is delicious. What are those brown spots in the pancakes anyway?" Bobby asked Lori.
"They're chocolate chips, honey," Lori explained.
"No kidding. These are fascinating," Bobby commented.
"I got to ask. Do these pancakes have any side effects?" Maria asked her.
"Only satisfaction, dear mother," Lori explained.
"Yeah, I'm pretty sure your own father may like your cooking as much as we do," Arturo replied.
"Well, eat up, everybody, we got a big weekend ahead of us," Lori said happily as the family continues eating.
Later on, they find out what they're going to do.
"Well, any thoughts on what we're going to do this Friday?"
"How about we do something fun, like... hey, how about we go to the community pool for a little swim, how does that sound everyone?" Lori asked and they all cheered in response.
"All right. Let's get ready!" Lincoln said happily.
"I'm right with ya, brother," Ronnie Anne replied.
Later, Lincoln, Lily, Ronnie Anne, Lori and Bobby went up to their room to get their swim attire. Lincoln switched into his orange swim trunks and paired it with his red T-shirt and a green pair of flip-flops. Ronnie Anne switched into her one-piece swimsuit that matched her purple shirt and paired it with her usual shorts and purple sandals and Lincoln switched Lily into a purple onesie with a strawberry on the front.
Meanwhile in Lori and Bobby's room, Lori switched into her pink one-piece swimsuit that matched her shirt and paired it a pair of blue jean shorts and some yellow sandals matching her goldenrod hair. Bobby on the other hand put on his red lifeguard swim trunks and paired it with a white T-shirt matching the lifeguard symbol on his trunks and a pair of white shoes. Maria and Arturo are out in the living now in their swim attire (purple one-piece for Maria and yellow swim trunks and green T-shirt for Arturo. The rest came downstairs with towels and their pool items. Bobby also carried a whistle with him.
"Wow, fellas, it looks like you're all set for the pool," Maria said happily.
"Heh, yeah, and I can show off my impressive lifeguard skills, Bobby said when they noticed what he said.
"Wait. You have a job as a lifeguard?" Lori asked Bobby.
"Of course I do. You know, I'll show my job when we get to the community pool," Bobby explained.
"Umm, okay," Lori said.
"Well, fellas. Let's not waste any more time here. Let's get out there and get some sun and swim at the pool," Lincoln said happily.
"YEAH!" They all cheered as they went outside with the towels in their hands. Lori also brought her purse with her which was packed with 4 things of sunscreen for extra UV protection, seven pairs of sunglasses (one for each person), her diary with a couple of spare pencils, her camera and her phone. They all went inside the mini-van and they drove to the community pool.
"Ahhh, there's not a better day than today to be at the Royal Woods Community Pool. The sun is bright, the weather is warm, the winds are breezy today," Lori said to the viewers, "I think it's definitely the perfect day to be here at the pool. And besides, I can't wait to see Bobby do his lifeguarding duties."
Later, once they arrive at the community pool, they got out of the mini-van. As they head in, Lincoln is feeling really good and the same goes for the rest of them.
"All right, let's find us some pool chairs to throw our towels on," Ronnie Anne said as she runs around the pool, grabbing Lincoln and Lily with her. Bobby then takes notice and blows out his whistle.
"Hey, No running, Ni-Ni!" Bobby shouted.
"Wow, that is some impressive lifeguarding, honey," Lori said as she laughs.
"That's definitely the first of my lifeguard skills I showed to you," Bobby said as they head on over to the same pool chairs that Lincoln, Lily and Ronnie Anne went toward putting their towels on the chairs.
"Oh, you were finding a place to put your towels. Interesting," Lori replied.
Lincoln is then taking off his red T-shirt and green flip-flops and Ronnie Anne was taking off her shorts and purple sandals, "Well, I'm about ready to make a big dip into the pool," Lincoln said before Lori suddenly stops him and his sisters, Ronnie Anne and Lily.
"Whoa, whoa, hold it. We gotta put sunscreen on you. I don't want you kids to get sunburnt," Lori said as she grabs out the sunscreen and sprays it around both Lincoln, Ronnie Anne and Lily just to make sure they don't get sunburnt. Meanwhile, Bobby was taking off his white T-shirt and white shoes and Arturo was taking off his green T-shirt, "Okay, kids, you're all set now, but first, we gotta spray the others with sunscreen, she starts spraying the other relatives with sunscreen all over their body just to she could make sure they don't get sunburnt. She then takes off her yellow sandals and her blue jean shorts, leaving only her swimsuit on, she then takes the sunscreen and sprays it all over herself to make sure she doesn't get sunburnt, "Okay, fellas. We're all set."
"All right, here we go!" Ronnie Anne said as she alongside Lincoln and Lily all dashed towards the pool and shouted out "CANNONBALL!" as they all make a big splash into the water.
"Wow. I bet you I could bring a bigger splash from that diving board that they just installed recently," Lori said to herself.
Lincoln and his sisters Lily and Ronnie Anne are having lots of fun swimming in the pool. Meanwhile a tiny little shadow in a circle begins to form above them, which reveals to be Lori making a high jump from that new diving board.
"YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Lori shouted as she lands directly into the pool, making a really big splash in the pool, ultimately splashing all over Ronnie Anne, Lincoln, Lily and the others. Bobby cheered for her as he happily blew his whistle.
"That's my girl!" Bobby shouted happily.
"Whoo!" Lori shouted happily.
"Wow. Talk about a real dive," Lincoln said happily to Lori.
"That was no ordinary dive. That was one of the most impressive dives I've seen," Maria shouted happily.
"Boy, I'll be. That is definitely an amazing dive," Arturo replied.
For the next few hours, the family had lots of fun in the pool, they spent those hours swimming around the pool, while also splashing themselves with water, and even swimming underwater in the pool. Even Bobby joined in on the fun by playing with Lincoln along with Ronnie Anne, Lily and Lori. Later, they took a break by relaxing in the pool chairs and drying off until eventually Lori's stomach started to grumble. Lori started to pat her stomach.
"Oh dear, it's past lunch, would you all like to have some Pizza Hut for lunch, kids?" Lori asked them.
"Oh yeah, Mom. Lily and I are famished," Lincoln responded.
"I gotta agree, Mom," Ronnie Anne agreed.
"Come on, kids, let's go get some Pizza on the way," Lori said as they all got up and started putting their leftover clothes back on. Lori put her blue jean shorts and yellow sandals back on. Lincoln put his red T-shirt and green flip-flops. Ronnie Anne put back on her shorts and purple sandals and Bobby put back on his white T-shirt and white shoes. Arturo then put back on his green T-shirt and Maria put on a spare pair of pants that Lori gave her along with spare shoes for both of them. Soon after, they all left the community pool, they all headed to the Pizza Hut in the mini-van, they all went to the table, and waited for their waiter.
"Welcome to Pizza Hut, what can I get you folks? Would you like to start off with an appetizer?" the pizza employee greeted and asked.
"Sure. Let's all start with some mozzarella cheese sticks please.
"Okay then, three baskets of mozzarella cheese sticks coming right up," the employee replied as he went to get them mozzarella sticks. Sometime later, the family had their mozzarella sticks, then the waiter came back to see if they are ready to order the main course, "Now are you ready to order, can I start you off with a drink first?"
"Two Cokes please, a Large for me and a small for Lily," Lori said.
"I'll have Dr. Pepper," Lincoln said.
"How about some Pepsi for me and Daddy," Ronnie Anne said.
"Arturo and I will have some Cheerwine please," Maria said.
"And what would you like to eat?" the employee asked.
"A three-meat pizza for all of us!" Lori said.
"Alright coming right up, Two Cokes one small one large, One Dr. Pepper, Two Pepsis, two Cheerwines, and one Three-Meat Pizza coming right up," the pizza employee said as he took their menus and the entire family decided to wait for at least thirty minutes.
"Wow, it sure is a real fun ride being at the pool having lots of good fun," Lori said to the viewers, "Making a big dive, seeing Bobby in action as a lifeguard, spending a lot of time swimming and cooling off. Ahh, yeah, those were some good times. Wouldn't you agree, kids?"
"Yeah. Sure, Mom," Lincoln agreed and so did Lily.
Right on time, the pizza and drinks are here, they all begin to eat their food, each person had two slices. After they had pizza, they all headed back to the Santiago residence. Although Bobby and the parents switched back to their normal attire, Lori, Lincoln, Lily and Ronnie Anne remained in their swim attire for the rest of the weekend. Later that evening, after they had some dinner and they both got washed up and clean, Lori was now with Lincoln and Lily in Ronnie Anne's room, watching some TV, Lincoln and Lily were sleeping on Lori's tummy and Lori was tousling Lincoln's hair, knowing how soft it is after washing up in the bathtub.
Lori then turned her head to the viewers, "Wow, this Friday's been really fun, we went out for a swim and we had some pizza and mozzarella sticks for lunch and plus I really love Bobby's job as a lifeguard. I wonder if he'll try to keep my other sisters safe when they visit the pool during the summer,"
Once Lori finished, she starts yawning and turns the TV off as she is about to dose off, "Boy, I wonder what fun things we'll do tomorrow."
She then starts sleeping along with her son, Lincoln and daughter, Lily. Maria soon comes in and notices them sleeping and Lincoln and Lily sleeping on their mother Lori's stomach.
"Wow. Lincoln and Lily sure looks cute while they sleep, especially on tummies. Sweet dreams, you three," Maria said softly as she turns off the bedroom light and she closes the door.
Saturday, May 17, 1986
It's Saturday, 10:00 A.M., Lincoln and Lori are relaxing in the living room watching some breaking news on TV with Maria. Ronnie Anne then comes in.
"Hey, Lincoln," Ronnie Anne said a little low.
"Oh, hey, sis. Have we got any plans for this Saturday?" Lincoln asked.
"Well, Mom and Dad have been planning on seeing a movie at a theater this evening. How does that sound?" Ronnie Anne asked, "The movie's at 5:00 by the way so we'll get some dinner on the way home."
"That sounds great, Ronnie Anne," Lincoln said, "Well, this indeed a really big weekend for us."
"Yeah, it really is," Lori said happily.
Later, sometime around 4:30 P.M. the family is getting ready so see a movie and Lori who was holding Lily began to call Lincoln and Ronnie Anne down.
"Ok, kids! Let's go! The movie starts in half an hour!" Lori called as Ronnie Anne and Lincoln come down super excited to see it, "So kids, are you ready to come to the movies with us,?"
"I sure am, Mom," Lincoln said happily.
"See, I knew you would agree," Ronnie Anne replied.
"All right, come on, kids," Bobby said.
"Coming," Lincoln said as they head out and get inside the mini-van. Everyone is ready to go to the movies.
"All right, fellas. Are we all set?" Maria asked.
"Yeah!/We're ready!/I am!/We're all set!" They all said simultaneously.
"All right. Let's go," Maria shouted happily as they all pull out of the driveway and they all went to the movie theater. It was 4:55 P.M. when they got there. They all then went up to the entrance.
"Hello guys. Welcome to the Royal Woods Cinema, how may I help you tonight?" the salesperson asked.
"Seven tickets for 5:00 showing of "Top Gun" please," Lori said as she holds a MasterCard credit card in her hand. The salesperson takes the card and identifies it and it is deemed to be valid. The salesperson then gives the credit card back to Lori.
"That'll be $25.97," the salesperson said as Lori brings out her MasterCard credit card and places it on a knucklebuster and out comes a receipt that Lori signs with a spare pen of hers, "Thank you. Enjoy the movie."
"Thank you," Lori said as they all went inside and head to the concession stand.
"Hi, welcome to the concession stand. How may I help you tonight?" The concession stand worker asked.
"Two large buckets of popcorn please. Bobby and I will share one. Mom and Dad will also be sharing another one as well. And two medium buckets for my fellow kids Lincoln, Lily and Ronnie Anne please," Lori explained.
"Wow. That's very nice, honey," Bobby said softly.
"I'd also like to order some nachos for my kids Lincoln and Lily," Lori said but Lincoln and Lily were stunned when Lori said that, "And a couple of chocolate bars for them as well," they were now shocked.
"And lastly, four large sodas for me, Bobby, Maria and Arturo and three medium sodas for Lincoln, Ronnie Anne and Lily. How much is it for all that?" She pulls out the credit card, "Because my credit card is ready to take the deal.
"That will be a total of $32.90," The stand worker said.
"That's great! I'll take it!" Lori said as she places the credit card again on another knucklebuster and out comes a receipt that Lori signs with a spare pen of hers. The stand worker then accepts the receipt and then grabs two large buckets and two medium buckets and fills them all up with popcorn. The stand worker also makes a little bowl of nachos for Lincoln with plenty of cheese on it and also gets out a couple of chocolate bars for him along with 4 large cups and 2 medium cups. Lori and the other all grab the snacks and cups.
"Thank you. Enjoy the movie," the Concession Stand Worker replied.
Lori and the others then head on over to the drink vendor and they poured ice in all six of their cups and then poured out drinks of their choice. Lori and Bobby poured Pepsi into their cups and Lori poured some Diet Pepsi into Lily's cup. Lincoln poured Dr. Pepper into his cup. Ronnie Anne poured some Diet Pepsi into her cup, and Maria and Arturo poured Cheerwine into their cups. After they put lids on their cups and got straws for each of then, they went to the butter dispenser and flavored their popcorn buckets with lots of butter. They all then got their tickets to see "Top Gun" at the movie theater, which was at movie theater room #3. When they made it to the room, they were just in time to see the movie which started around 5:10 P.M. Just around the middle of the movie, the whole audience was really enjoying the movie. They were all enjoying their popcorn and Maria and Arturo were holding their hands.
"Ahhh, yes. The good times of seeing a great movie at a theater, even if it doesn't sound good for our likings. And I am very glad we picked a movie to see that is actually perfect," Lori said quietly to her family.
"I'll be. This is amazing. You've done the right thing for all of us, Lori," Bobby said quietly as he and Lori both hold hands together and Lincoln and Ronnie Anne are doing the same.
"Wow. That aircraft is great for a movie like this," Lincoln said quietly.
"Yeah. This is fantastic," Ronnie Anne said quietly.
"Aircraft," Lily said quietly.
Later on after the movie finishes around the time the credits start rolling around 6:55 P.M., they all got to use the bathroom one by one before they all come out of the theater around 7:02 P.M., and everyone is very glad they saw the movie at the theater as they were heading for the car.
"Wow, that movie was really amazing!" Lori said happily.
"I'd bet my ass it really was," Ronnie Anne said happily.
"Damn, those aircraft scenes were so badass, it felt like I was going on a trip down Memory Lane," Lincoln said as they all get inside the mini-van and get ready to get back on the road to their home.
"So, anyone up for some "Burping Burger" for dinner tonight?" Lori asked and they all cheer.
"Oh, for sure, Mom. I'm still hungry," Lincoln said politely.
"Me too, Mom, Me too," Ronnie Anne replied.
Meanwhile, around 7:08 P.M., they all arrive at Burping Burger via the drive thru.
"Welcome to Burpin' Burger. May I take your order?" The employee said on the audio box.
"Sure. Seven cheeseburgers and three large fries for everyone my dear. Plus seven Cokes for everyone, please," Lori said to the audio box.
"That'll be around $20. Your dinner's will be ready shortly. Thank you," the employee said on the audio box as they drive over to the window and Lori gives the employee her MasterCard credit card, it is valid, and the employee gives her back the credit card. Just a few minutes later just around 7:12 P.M., the employee gives them their dinner and their receipt, "Thank you. Enjoy your dinner."
Lori then drives off with them, while on their way home, they all eat their dinner, which they are all enjoying.
"Mmmm. These are delicious," Lincoln said happily.
"Yeah! I can't imagine what makes them taste so good!" Ronnie Anne said happily as they continue eating their dinner.
Meanwhile, when they all got home after eating dinner on their way back from the theater, it was 7:25 P.M. They all then went inside, knowing they all had a great day.
"Wow. What a beautiful evening it was," Lori said happily.
"Yeah, and there was not a single bit of trouble while we were out," Lincoln agreed and Lily nodded her head in agreement.
"I'll bet. I sure have had a lot of fun today," Ronnie Anne said happily, "I wonder what else we'll do tomorrow."
Sunday, May 18, 1986
Sunday at 12:15 P.M. The family was having some chicken strips and some tater tots for lunch.
"Mmm. Nothing like some chicken strips along with tater tots for lunch," Lincoln said.
"Goo!" Lily agreed as she ate some of her tater tots.
"Yep, you said it," Ronnie Anne agreed.
"Say, what do you think we should do today?" Bobby asked, "This morning was a bit of a lazy one."
"I was thinking we'd spend most of the afternoon at Gus Games n' Grub," Lori said and at that moment, Lincoln was showing his Halleluiah face and gives Lori a hug, she hugs him back.
"Oh, Mom, what would Lily and I do without you?" Lincoln said happily.
Lori begins to tear up knowing that Lincoln had said something nice to her, she picked him up and rocked him in a hugging position.
"Gee, thanks. You ready, kids?" Lori asked softly to her kids.
"Yeah. We'll get going after lunch
"All right," Lori said.
Later after lunch at 12:30, Lori, Lincoln, Bobby and Ronnie Anne get into the car and drove off through the streets while Maria and Arturo decided to stay behind at home to do some housework.
Around 12:50 P.M., They arrived at the Game and Grub. When they arrived, they got inside. Lori used her Mastercard credit card which is still valid to pay for game tokens, they decided what they wanted to play, they first played Pole Position, it was kind of rough at first, but all five of them were able to handle the steering wheel well, then they all played Skee-Ball, and they all got tremendous high scores with Lincoln and Lily both getting a high score of 2,000,012 points, Lori of 1,365,340, Bobby a total of 1,766,590 and Ronnie Anne a total of 1,205,850, they all felt so great about playing Skee-Ball that they were like experts at it, in fact they got so many tickets that they needed to save them for later, they played "Pac-Man" with Lincoln, Lily and Ronnie Anne altogether getting a high score of 90,870 points and Lori and Bobby a total of 84,690 points, then they played "Space Invaders" which is their final game to play. Afterwards, they went to the Ticket corner and collected prizes, Lincoln got himself a new toy model spaceship, Lily got herself a new teddy bear, Ronnie Anne got herself a new purple headband, Bobby got himself a new magic "8" ball, and Lori got herself a new piggy bank, then they drove on back home after an exhausting day, which was 3 and a half hours, so they came home around 4:30 P.M.
"Wow! We really had a fun time today," Lori said happily.
"We all had a blast, Mom!" Lincoln said exhaustingly.
"Yeah! I'm exhausted," Ronnie Anne said exhaustingly and Lily agreed with them.
"So, do you want to watch TV with us?" Lori asked.
"Sure. Let's watch something we all like," Bobby replied.
They decided to watch one of their favorite cartoon shows, Tom & Jerry on an old 4x3 television set, they all love the way Cat Tom and Mouse Jerry outsmart each other and laugh at their antics, soon the show was over and they started watching Looney Tunes, which is another favorite show they like to watch, after about three hours of classic cartoons on syndication (mostly NBC, CBS and ABC), they are later at the dinner table with Maria and Arturo while Lori is in the kitchen making dinner for them, they were at the dinner table waiting for their dinner to be ready, by the time she is done, she calls out.
"Dinner, everybody! I've made chili dogs with baked beans and fried potatoes for everyone," Lori explained.
"Oh wow!" Maria said happily.
"Mmmm... Smellin' good," Arturo said happily.
"Yum!" Lincoln said happily.
"Delicious," Ronnie Anne said happily.
"Dig in, fellas," Lori said as they all begin to eat up their dinner Lori made for them, Lori also began to eat up her entire meal, soon afterwards, Lincoln was about to head back up to Ronnie Anne's room packing his suitcase up soon after he and the others got washed and they are all in their PJ's.
"Hey, Lincoln," Lori called for Lincoln quietly.
"Yeah, Mom?" Lincoln said quietly.
It was very nice sleeping with you and Lily in Ronnie Anne's room," Lori said, "But, uh, would you and the girls mind spending the night with me and Bobby?"
"Uh, yeah. Sure," Lincoln replied, "Lily and I really love sleeping with you."
"Well, I guess I'll take that as a yes," Ronnie Anne responded politely but despondently.
"Come on kids, it's time for bed," Lori said softly and as expected, Lincoln and Lily just climbed into bed with Bobby and Ronnie Anne, Lori in her PJ's then gets into bed with them, she then tucked them all in together and gave him a goodnight kiss, she softly speaks to them, "Good night, kids. Good night, Bobby."
"Night, Mom/night, mother./Night-night," Lily, Lincoln and Ronnie Anne all said and they all went to sleep together.
Monday Morning, May 19, 1986
It is 9:45 Monday morning. Lori and her kids Lincoln and Lily who were now back in their normal attire have just finished packing and have just had some corned beef hash for breakfast.
"I have to say, it was an amazing time being with Bobby. And I was very glad to say that Ronnie Anne, Lily and Lincoln all got to know each other more over the weekend. And just to think, the matriarch of my family Rita is already on her way," Lori said to the viewers.
Meanwhile, 15 minutes later, Rita then pulls into the driveway. Lori, Lincoln and Lily were about to head on home with their suitcases and her purse packed.
Well, Bobby, I gotta go now," Lori said.
"When will I see you again?" Bobby asked her.
"Maybe sometime around the end of May or the beginning of June," Lori said before she gives Bobby a kiss on the cheek.
"You know, Ronnie. It was really nice that Lily and I got to know you more," Lincoln explained to Ronnie Anne.
"I know, guys. I know," Ronnie Anne said as she gives Lincoln and Lily a hug and Lori is awed in excitement and Rita is amazed by Lincoln and Lily both hugging Ronnie Anne.
"So, it looks like I actually have two sisters," Lincoln said happily.
"Yep, that's right, Linc. You do. I'll see you soon, brother," Ronnie Anne said as she kisses him and Lily and they were surprised by it.
"Come on, kids. Let's go," Rita called.
"Coming, Nanny," Lincoln replied.
"Love you, guys. Gotta go, bye," Lori said happily.
"Bye. Take care," The Santiagos said as they waved goodbye.
While on their way home, Lori, Lincoln and Lily were feeling happy about what they did this weekend. Lori was writing a new in her diary about what she and Lincoln did this weekend.
"So, kids, how was your weekend?" Rita asked
"Oh, it was excellent," Lincoln said happily.
"Yeah, we both went for a swim and had pizza on Friday, went to see "Top Gun" at the theater and had some "Burpin' Burger" for dinner on Saturday and we went to Gus' Games n' Grub on Sunday," Lori explained happily.
"Wow, and did you both behave well?" Rita asked.
"Yes, we did. In fact, Lily and I actually followed the rules unlike many of her aunts," Lincoln said politely, "Don't get me wrong. Lucy also behaves and so does Luna."
"See what I mean, my little kids are pure angels just like me," Lori said sweetly to her kids.
"Well, Lori, you and your kids have been really wonderful together this weekend. In fact, I've got a big surprise for you," Rita said happily.
"Well, what is it?" Lori asked.
"I'm going to let you all hang out in our room as much as you'd like," Rita said.
"Really?" they all asked in unison.
"Yes, Lincoln. I really do mean it," Rita said.
"Gee, thank you. What would Lily and I do without either of you?" Lincoln said as Lori heads on over to Lincoln and Lily and hugs them deeply.
"Well, fellas, I guess that wraps up our splendid and fantastic weekend with the Santiagos, I have to say it was the best weekend we ever had. Hopefully, I'll be able to meet Bobby again around the beginning of June sometime after the school year ends. Until then, let's find out what our next big event will be," Lori said as she and her kids Lily and Lincoln hug together as the van drives off on the road back home.
