Nintendo 64

So I have made it very clear in the past that I married a toddler. Adam is the biggest kid I have ever seen and I find it absolutley adorable.

Now that that is out of the way, Adam has been on this kick lately to bring back his childhood in the form of the old school video game systems. So he has been searching high and low for the various gaming systems that we grew up with and he is determined to have a collection of them all. I am happy to oblige, as I loved the older video game systems and think it would be something fun to play together once in a while.

We already have the original Nintendo as well as the original Sega Genesis, so Adam's next conquest was obtaining the original Nintendo 64. We searched high and low, and I was finally able to snag an incredible deal on Craigslist (again, Craigslist is amazing. And I am now a pro at bartering.) complete with system, two controllers, and a variety of games for the low low price of $20. Yes, I'm just that good.

We came home from getting the system and while I went to make myself dinner, Adam went straight to the TV. I walked in a few minutes later to see him playing Mario, with complete and giddy joy on his face. It was adorable, and totally worth the $20.





He says he is going to play Mario Kart with me soon!

Me

I'm a newlywed with a love for the little things in life- sipping a cappuccino at a local coffee shop in the sunshine, art that seems to make no sense, the smile my husband gets sometimes when I catch him watching me, the cool breeze in the fall when the leaves are changing, my dog when she has somehow manages to wedge herself under my hand and I find myself petting her unknowingly, the smell of freshly cut grass, the sounds of the ocean, taking photos of instances you can never get back. I feel too much about things but may not always say it. I adore my mother. You'll find I take a lot of pictures. La vita รจ bella.
