Well, I finally have time this morning to post some pics from our Retro Gaming Party from this past Saturday. You've seen the BBQ, now check out some of the video gaming madness that went on after everyone stuffed their face with Ribs, Beer-can Chicken and loads of cold beer.

Your Hosts for the Festivities - Dane (Waterborn) and Michelle

One more shot of that grill

So Dane gives him a few quick pointers

Resulting in our first video game related injury of the night

So Joe decides that the Nintendo and Mario are a safer choice

As the night goes on, the participants begin to wind down and get comfy

As you can tell, fun was had by all. So keep an eye out for the next Kickin' It Old School Party coming sometime in the Fall and try to join us if you can. Thanks to everyone who helped us celebrate as our friends from France visited. It was a blast and I look forward to the next time we can all get together.

That is a traditional Chinese Medicine chest that originally was designed to hold herbal medicines. Now it is filled with Old School video game cartridges. :)
