The kids are growing up, and the founder is growing old, and Spencer is having relationship issues.

1. Hello and welcome back to the Mariano Legacy. I hope you all are enjoying this legacy. Last time we
visited the Marianos, Ginger gave birth to Gene and Betty, who later grew up to be adorable children.
The evil Repo Man paid them a visit, stealing their dish rack and cabinet. Orson proves to be the serious
child of the group, and Ginger gives Kendal the nanny love advice. Now let’s take a look at what’s going
on now…..

2. “Hello? Yes this is Mr. Mariano. Yes, we are still interested. Tomorrow at 10 you say? Alright,
thank you so much!”

3. “I can’t believe mom forgot to buy groceries. I am so hungry!”
“Yea me too! I better run and put these away so she can make us dinner.”
Makoto: *being totally clueless*

4. Ginger felt really bad about forgetting to go grocery shopping, so she treated her whole family to pizza as a gift.
That, and because she was too lazy to make dinner herself.
“Thanks for the pizza mom.”
“Oh your welcome Spencer. Enjoy it.”
“Uh, hun? Orson smells awful! He’s ruining my pizza moment.”
“Umm…”

5. “Hey little bitty ants, I’m Spencer, your friend! Hello!”
“Oh c’mon Spencer, that’s not how you talk to ants. You got to show them you are in charge. Watch this. Hey
you ants! Serve me as your king or else the hand shark will eat you! Rawr!”
“That wasn’t very nice, Orie.”
Maybe Spencer deserve those pink jammies after all lol.

6. “Now Spencer, make sure you bake it just like mines. Don’t burn it.”
“Betty, I have been making these muffins since before you were born. I know what I’m doing.”
“That’s not what Orson said. He said you burnt all of them.”
“Grrr…..”

7. “Yes! Finally a perfect muffin. I should bronze it forever to show I can bake!”
Ok, it’s not that serious. Calm down.
“Good job brother! Now if you can learn how to cartwheel you will be all set.”
I love how he looks serious like his mom (smiles)

8. The beeline to the schoolbus. This is Betty and Gene’s first day, and they were excited to get on the bus.
Betty: I wonder if they have dollhouses at school.
Spencer: Uh…no sis they don’t. School is for learning, not playing.
Gene: That’s boring..I wanna stay home now. *sneaks toy cars in pocket*

9. “Hmm….I wonder what the boys see in this ant square thingy….”
*Looks around*
Since the house was totally empty for once, except for baby Judy, he decided to act childish. Discreetly, of
course.

10. Awww! Autonomous baby feeding! Makoto is finally becoming a good father, feeding his daughters and
rolling wants to help the kids with homework. I honestly think he is a closet Family sim.
“There ya go, sweetie. Good ole milk for pretty girls.”
“Goo *slurpslurp*
“I think I heard the nanny pull up. It’s my day off. Oh well, I guess I will tip her and send her on her way.”

11. “Oh let’s see here….902 Legacy Drive….this is the right place. No grass though…that’s not good. How can a child
play with dust? Oh well, I’m not here to judge, I am just the Social Worker.”
She continued to look at the house, studied it some more, then made her decision.

12. “Ok, little one. You are finally home. I am sure this family will provide you with a loving home. So much
better than where you came from.”
“Okway. My mommy and dada here?”
“Yes sweetie. Your new mommy and daddy is here.”
“Yaay!”

13. The social worker left Joanne in the care of Makoto, who snuggled her immediately. The social worker told
him of Joanne’s horrible past, and he promised to make her life a whole lot better.
“Welcome home, Joanne. It’s so nice to finally meet you. You have a lot of sisters and brothers who can’t wait
to meet you.”
“Daddy? You my daddy?”
“Yes, hun, I am.”
“Wove you daddy.” *snuggles*

14. After a quick change in Betty’s old clothes and a bath, he introduced her to Judy, who was taking her
afternoon nap.
“Dat’s my sister?”
“Yes it is. Her name is Judy. Soon she will be big enough to play with you.”
“Wow!”

15. Yet again, Makoto found himself on the phone.
Of course! We will be here at 5 O’clock. Yes, of course, see you then. Buh-bye.”
I really hope this works. This is my dream for all of my children.
I hope that dream comes true, especially since there’s a lot of unfinished homework lying about.

16. Ginger always made a point of greeting her children when the bus pulled up. Maybe it’s her over-
protectiveness picking up ever since Old Man St. Julien started stalking her children.
“Hi Betty! How was school?”
“It was ok, mom. I only got a B+ though.”
Only? That’s more than most of my sims get on the first day! Must be the smartmilk.

17. Everyone: Ew! Mom smells!
Joanne: Mommy? Are you mommy?
“Oh, Makoto! This must be our new daughter! I am so sorry I wasn’t here to greet her.”
“Tickles mommy! I want tickles!”
“Of course, sweetie.”
Even Spencer was happy to see a new sibling in the house. Finally, six kids. Now to grow them and
get them married. *sigh*

18. “Awww…there there. You are home now Joanne.”
*In the background* “…and one day this house will be full of ghosts scaring people until they pee
their pants!”
“Cool!”

19. “Ok, kiddo it’s time to wash up. The headmaster is here.”
“Headmaster? Is he from a Bruce Lee movie? I hope so I want to show off my new moves! *gains sports
entusiasm*
“Uhh…no. He’s from the Bowerville Private School.”
“Oh. Ok. How boring.” *shuffles inside*
Yes..I am attempting to get an insane amount of kids into private school. The house is in chaos right
now, so let’s see how it goes.

20. “Mr. BJ, so nice to meet you. Welcome to my humble abode.”
“Mr. Mariano, correct? Thanks for inviting me. I haven’t had a decent meal in ages.”
“Uh..sorry to hear that.”
“Oh don’t be. I thrive on getting invited to houses for private school approvals.”
This should be easy then. As long as Ginger doesn’t make her trademark burnt food.

21. “So, would you like to have a look inside?”
“Would I? Of course! I am sure you have lots of expensive shiny things for me to cheer over, and a
lovely dinner waiting for me at the end.”
“You have done this a lot huh?”
“Yup! This is the best job in the world. Oh, by the way, is this a legacy family?”
“Yes..yes it is. Why?”
“Oh no reason…well, if you have any daughters I sure would like to meet them when they get
older..ya know…Maybe get into the legacy. No one ever asks poor BJ to be a legacy husband. They
don’t know what they are missing!”
“Erm…ok…”

22. “1..2..3! Rock!” “Paper!” *best friends*
“Woot! This room that is decorated in old homework and potties is awesome! I wanna see more!”
“Umm..ok. This way please.”

23. Makoto wasn’t doing so well in the schmoozing department, so Ginger made filet mignon.
“I sure do hope Mr. BJ likes this. I have heard horror stories from families who made the wrong food..”
At least she didn’t burn it this time! I was so expected to have her serve up cajun style filet mignon
instead.

24. *Yawn* “And this is me and my wife’s room.”
“Woot! Lot’s of woohoos going on in here! Yea! Right on!”
“Uhh..right. Let’s go to the next place.”

25. Following the age old legacy tradition, something always happens when the headmaster comes to
visit. This time, Judy decided to grow up unexpectedly. Geez, I suck at planning these things!
“Hewwo mommy. I’m sweepy.”
“Aww, ok darling go back to sleep.”
“Love you mommy.”
“Love you too Judy.”

26. “Well, Mr. Mariano, this family is just what the school needs. Your children are welcome to
attend starting tomorrow.”
“Thank you very much Mr. BJ.” *+8,000*
“Makoto! My back hurts and it’s your fault!”
“What did I do?”
“Oooh yum, red smart milk!” *slurpslurpslurp*

27. Homeworkfest! Coming to a sim house near you!
“Now, make sure you put the fraction on there correctly…yes like that.”
“Daaaaad! I hate homework!”
“Hush Spencer. You all are going to private school tomorrow, I don’t want you all to get
bad grades on the first day.”
They barely got into private school. I made Makoto schmooze at the last minute and gave
them 94 points. That was too close.

28. “Soo…..would you like to woohoo?”
“If woohoo means more kids…then no. I am done with kids.”
“Oh no babe, lets just woohoo like old times. Just for fun. Pleeeeez?”
“Oh alright. Turn the lights off though.”
“Sweet!”

29. The next morning, Makoto had yet another day off so he bathed Judy. All autonomously. Man,
I wish he was like this when Orson and Spencer was born.
“Scrub scrub scrub! Get all the yuckies off!”
“Yaay bubbles!” *splashes into Makoto’s eye*
“wfagapgafoflkvafvm!”

30. Just a cute family breakfast. Every morning, Ginger rolls the want to serve food in the morning. These
lucky kids never go to school hungry. But Orson just had to be different with his muffin full of win.

31. “Man, potty training is so boring! I wonder how Ginger got through it with all the other kids.”
The same way you are doing: making funny faces.
LOL well you rolled the want for it so don’t complain now!
“Dada I just made poopies!”
“Good job. Yay.”

32. “Hey mom!”
“Hi, Betty. How was private school?”
“It was fun! We got to have pet rabbits in science class!”
I wonder why Betty always get off the bus first. Maybe they go by alphabetical order.

33. No time to think about that now…because its Orson and Spencer’s birthday!
“I wish….I wish to be cooler than Spencer!” *blows*
“Now Orson that wasn’t a good wish. You shoulda wished for a pony or something.”
“it’s my wish Betty, an’ I can wish for whatever I want!”

34. *sorry about the sky I forgot to put the ceiling up!* lol
“I wish to be handsome and have a pretty girl!”
Gene: Ew girls!
Betty: Wish for ponies silly!

35. The moment you have all been waiting for!
The teen Spencer!
Isn’t he cute! Alright here’s the stats:
Aspiration: Knowledge
9-0-10-3-6 *very shy awww*
LTW: max out all 7 skills
Turn ons/offs: Logical girls with a bad odor but not of the raven haired variety
(You all will see Orson in a few slides. I forgot to take a transition picture lol)

36. Nighttime baseball game. Umm..shouldn’t you guys be in bed?
“Cmon! Throw the ball before mom catches us and puts us to bed!”
“Uh..Gene…is that a wolf over there?”
*runs*

37. “Ok smart guy, let’s see whatcha got!”
“I have been working out a lot so I will beat you in this trivial game.”
“Sure whatever Spencer, we will see.”
It’s a bad picture of Orson but here is his stats:
Aspiration: Popularity 9-2-8-3-6
LTW: Become rock god
Turn ons/offs: Raven haired ladies that are hard workers but not charismatic

38. It’s so nice to have extra hands in the family! Spencer woke up first and gave Joanne a bath, since she had
an accident that night.
“It’s ok Jo-Jo. Everyone has oopsies sometimes.”
“I go potty next time. I hate oopsies.”
“I know, me too.”

39. “Oh frammit! My stove is on fire!” *minus 500*
Oh c’mon Ginger! It’s just Omelettes!
Cooking is definitely not her strong suit.

40. “Oh crap! Ginger are you trying to kill us?!”
“I just wanted to make breakfast for everyone!”
Fireman: (In a mighty mouse voice) Here I come to save the daaaaay!! *sprays water*
“Phew! I thought we were all going to be toast!”
I guess its truly not a legacy unless you have a few fires lol.

41. “Waaah! Mommy almost bewnt the house down and this block won’t go in here!!! I hate this
block!! And the house smells like eggies!!

42. “Jo-Jo, it’s easy, see? I put block in here and it goes boom! Yaay me!”
“No not easy Judy. I hate blocks.” *nommnomnom*

43. “Woo yea! I stink but I got a promotion anyways! Yea!”
Thank goodness. She has been in the same position since Gene and Betty were born. I though she
would never get the promotion even though she had all the skills and the work bar was full.

44. “Hey good lookin’, my name’s Spencer. You must be my mom’s friend.”
“Uh, yea…aren’t you a little young kid?”
“Yea, but only young at heart. I know I am younger than you but you can’t stop destiny. So..what do you
say? You, me and a couple of soda pops?”

45. “You sure do have gonads to be flirting with a police officer. But the answer’s no, kid. Call me when you
have hair in all the right places.”
Oooh! Shot down! I need to brush up on my flirting skills. Geez.
She is kinda cute though…. I will have to see who she gets along with later on.

46. “Hey dude! Long time no see!”
His friend is Collin Picaso…yes the Picasos had children in my game. And Collin is kind of cute actually. Too bad
he is a playable lol.
“Man, I thought you dropped off the face of the earth! How’s it been going?”
“oh nothing much, Collin. Just private school and a bunch of siblings. I have only been a teen for one day but I
am already itching for something to do.”
“Oh yea? Well, I think I have the thing for you then.”
“Yea?”

47. Collin slipped a small plastic bag in Orson’s back pocket.
“Here’s the thing. You gotta plant these in the most private spot you can find outside. Water them and keep
them from getting bugs, and soon you will have the best fun in the world!”
“What is it anyways?”
“it’s a magic plant.” *grins*
“C’mon dude, you know I’m not dense. What is it?”
“When its ready to pull outta the ground I will tell you ok? Just make sure you plant it tonight.”
“Uhh..ok then I will.”

48. “Collin, this won’t get me in trouble, will it?”
“Orson, stop being a square as your parents say, whatever that means. Anyway, just keep it hidden and you
wont have to worry about it. Trust me, you will be glad you did it.”
“Ok, as long as I won’t get in trouble.”
“Just be careful of your mom. I know she’s a cop.”
“umm ok…”
What could Collin be up to I wonder…..

49. What’s the matter Ginger? Double fail! So much for watching the cooking channel.
“I swear I read the book first! *sigh* maybe I should just stick to milk and cereal.”
I think she’s more worried about getting old than cooking things without burning them.

50. Dear Sim State University,
I am writing to apply for scholarships. At this time, I am a straight A student, and I have topped
my career in education. I also have very good creativity and logic skills, and am working on
topping my body skills. Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
Spencer Mariano

51. “Ok…I dug up some dirt and now I am going to just..drop it in….now put some water…I hope this
won’t get me in trouble. If I get in trouble Collin is dead meat.”
“Orson! Dinner time!”
*jumps a little bit* “Oh frammit! I mean…Ok mom I’m coming!”
“Orson Michael! You better not be swearing out there!”
“No Ma! I’m not!”

52. “Wow, the stars are awesome! Maybe, when I go to Uni, I can study them even more!”
I swear, every night he heads out there, even neglecting his needs. I hope he gets abducted lol.

53. “Eh, Gene? Why are you playing with my dollies?”
“Cuz..you are hogging the stove! I’m bored!”
“Hold on sissy, I’m almost done.”
I’m telling mom that you called me a sissy!”
“Yea right!”
“Moooom!”
“Shush!”

54. Who is this nice looking lady, you wonder? Why, this is the nanny Kendal Lawson! I have been on a
mini-mission to age down all the nannies in my game. I’m kind of tired of looking at old ladies all
the time lol. I wonder if Spencer will try to flirt with her too lol. We will see…..

55. “…and I was dreaming that I was on this airplane with Janis Joplin and Bob Dylan and we were playing
cards…man that was so cool I wish it was real!”
“No offense bro, but that sounded so boring.”
“Well of course you would say that cuz you are just a little kid!”
“No, it’s boring because there were no ponies in it.”
“Pfft..kids.”

56. Ut oh. Spencer found the nanny. Don’t scare her away please! So much for him being a shy sim.
“Yea…so…how’s it going beautiful? Miss me much?”
“Uhh…what kid? You know I changed your diapers before.”
“I know..that’s what makes us good friends though right? You know me better than most people.
So..what about this..you, me and some banana splits. My treat of course.” *grins*
“This is like..awkward. I’m going inside now.”
“But…?”
*walks away*
Aww..poor Spencer can’t get any love.

57. “Hello, Collin?”
“Yea what’s up?”
Yea..I uh, planted those seeds you gave me.”
“And…?”
“Well they are growing. They look funny though. I never seen something like those before. What is it?”
“I got to go man, but I will tell you when its time to pull them outta the ground.”
“Alright…bye.”

58. “I’m the best because I have 2 best friends that will be friends with me forever.”
“You can’t be the best because your two best friends are mom and dad. That doesn’t count.”
“……….”

59. “Awww, man….i got fired! On my first day! This stinks!”
Yep..me and my bad chance card skills. Sorry kiddo.

60. But Orson’s job woes will have to wait, because it’s Joanne’s birthday!
“Man…being unemployed stinks big time.”
“Hush Orson, it’s your sister’s birthday….k Jo-Jo blow out the candles!”
“Okay!* spitblows all over the cake*

61. And here is Joanne after a retro makeover. Man she is so cute! Too bad she isn’t eligible for being heir.
Well, the first thing she did was take a shower so that’s a good sign of being neat and clean.
“Well, good girls are always clean, not dirty like boys.”
Um, ok.

62. “No ones paying attention to me!! Why!!! *bangs bear on the ground*
I think Gene needs some anger management training…located at the bookcase of course.
“Gene, please don’t bang on the ground like that. Go play with your cars or something.”

63. Looks like Spencer isn’t giving up on the nanny. Seriously, the first thing he does when she’s there is run
after her so they can talk.
“Yea..like you are hotter than a police siren. And stuff. C’mon, you know you want to give me a chance.”
“Look, you are sweet but I don’t wanna go to jail, and besides you are too young. Maybe when you-”
“Yea I know, when I grow hair in the right places we can talk.”
“That’s not what I was going to say but ok.”

64. Orson’s job woes soon ended when he picked up a gas station attendant job. And he brought home
another playable. Her name is Kaiya Takeshi and she lives in my trailer park hood. And it’s not run
down..well not completely lol. She’s also a romance sim so he better watch out. She’s known for
loving and leaving in the same day.
“Ooohwee Kaiya is hothothot!”
Kaiya: yea.. I know.”
“Dude, you are such a dork!”
“No, you are the dork that goes to work wearing the idea hat.” Zing!

65. This time, Orson volunteered to toss Judy into childhood, mainly to look cooler than his brother
Spencer.
“Okay, time to blow out those candles. And then you will be a big girl.”
“Yaay!”
“Yaay!” *idea hat burns out*

66. And then the glitch monster attacked! Sorry I usually don’t post my glitches but this was funny.
“mmmph get your butt outta my face! This is so gross! Why meeee!!!”
“Hey I’m grown! Umm…why is your face in pyjamas bro?”

67. Look how pissed off she is when she tried
to get cake lol. She kind of reminds me of
the scene on the titanic when they were at
the edge of the ship lol. I boolpropped
them back to normal though. This just
didn’t seem right at all.

68. And here is the baby of the family after a brief boolprop session and a makeover. And as promised, I
gave her a blue gingham dress. She’s so cute and she looks just like her mom….who by the way is
slouching it up on the couch.

69. *grunts* I so hope I don’t get in trouble….*gruntgrunt* these plants look so weird. I wonder what’s
so magical about them?

70. She snuck up behind him while he was picking weeds and stared at him for the longest. Then flirted
with him.
“You are so cute when you are working, you know. Very…manly.”
Spencer: *swoons*
“And uh..erm..yea..you are cute too when ..you um..are here flirting with me.”

71. Ginger’s birthday was coming in a couple of days, so I had Spencer do her founder portrait since
he had the most creativity points. And the fact that he wanted to max creativity. I hope it comes
out well.

72. First autonomous romantic interaction in ages! *squeee!!!*
“I love you so much honey. I am so glad we are together, and we have such a beautiful family.”
“Yes I know, isn’t it great? I love you too Makoto. Thanks for being my best friend and lover for
all of these years.”

73. This reminds me of Cheers when they all say the name of whoever comes into the room lol.
Everyone except betty: Orson!
“Aaaay whats shakin’? Oh…mom’s special breakfast.” *disappointed*
“yea so astronauts are so cool because they went to the moon for the first time ever! I want to go to
the moon one day and catch stars that look like ponies!”
Spencer: *sigh*

74. And here is Ginger’s portrait. She looks so pretty in this picture. I hope she grows up into an elegant
elder.

75. But this here is not so elegant. If this legacy was set in the victorian times, they would have been dead a
long time ago.
“Help! Oh heelllp! My kitchen is on fire for the 56334524342th time!”

76. “I am so going to get Kendal. I heard about this gypsy lady that has a crystal ball, and she can get
anyone to love you forever! I hope she’s real, because I need help!”
Random kid that looks like Benjamin Long: Yea..you need help alright. More like mental help.
“You don’t understand, it’s destiny! She is the one I just know it.”
“Once you go to Uni, I am sure you will change your mind about that.”
“I doubt it.” *sighs wistfully*

77. What is with John Burb? Ginger decided to do a little sight seeing before work, and he was running
towards her as she got into the carpool and left. It was kind of funny that he stood there staring at the
car as it left lol.

78. “I will get you, whoeveryouare. Trust me. I have my ways.”
You are just mad because she saw you in your pink tutu with your wife Jennifer lol.

79. Makoto rolled the want for Judy and Joanne to get into private school, so here we are again. I just hope his
schmoozing skills have improved. Ginger’s cooking sure haven’t.
“You are one cool man, Mr. Mariano, especially with that Pepto-Bismol pink tux you got there.”
“Why thank you, Mr.BJ. Shall we go inside for a tour?”
“Of course.”

80. “Mmmmm..this smells good. I know this won’t burn!”
*crosses fingers*

81. Just as she finished cooking she started to feel funny.
“Oh my, this isn’t fun at all. Oh frammit I think my knees gave out!”
Just go with the flow Ginger, it’ll be over quick I promise. *sniffles*
See…things always happens when the headmaster comes. So much for the party I had planned.

82. “Wow…I’m…old! But I’m still pretty! Whoopee!”
She is pretty yaay! She just needs a hair colour adjustment lol.

83. “My this is a lovely dinner Mrs. Mariano. You know, this house is very peaceful considering *the
amount of people that live here.”
“We run a very orderly household, Mr. BJ.”
“Yup we sure do!” *gobbles down food*
“Hmm..yes I see…” *stares at Makoto with disgust*

84. “It was a pleasure meeting you again. Mr. Mariano. Joanne and Judy may start tomorrow.”
“Thank’s so much Mr. BJ. You have a good evening.”
And so six Mariano kids got into private school, which to me is quite an achievement considering
Ginger only have 5 cooking points lol.

85. And this is the end of this chapter. My game crashed right after I took this picture lol. I do hope
you all enjoyed this legacy so far and please comment if you wish on boolprop.com
As usual, all thanks go to the cool creators at MTS2, All About Style and wherever else I got the
rest of this cool stuff lol.
