24. What is your best Christmas memory? The year we got the Nintendo was probably the most magical Christmas for me as a child. I just remember shaking my brother to wake up because Santa brought us a Nintendo. It was the original one, and we played a little but I remember LOVING to watch my dad and his brothers laugh like little boys again as they tried to beat the levels. We got a PowerPad with it (you ran in place on it and could race an opponent), it was a crack-up to watch my uncles race each other! My brother and I bonded a lot with my dad over Nintendo games (crazy engineer!)

Hope you have a wonderful Christmas Season!
