The Delicious Meal and Lots of Old-School Nintendo

Jeff was deliriously happy reliving his youth...Mario Cart, Tetris, Street Fighting 2, Dr. Mario. It must have taken his mind off being 40! The kids loved it!!

No one wanted to get up early to do a Turkey Trot, so Jeff and the kids did their own! Sticky buns for breakfast as all good holidays begin.
