Wii Fun!

I love the Wii!!! I think when Santa brought it, it was for me.. not the kids….? LOL! Well the kids sure do love it too!!! I am so excited because Santa might be bringing some new games for the kids!! Yay for family fun night!!!! Board games and the Wii can’t beat that! My mom also might be getting me.. oops I mean the kids a super duper AWESOME game for Christmas, but I can’t share until it is for sure :)

Anyway, Justin especially loves playing the Wii, well any video game for that matter.. he’s like a video “gameoholic” he could do this the whole entire time he is at our house! I was worried that Brooklyn was going to be that way when Jason’s (her dad) mom got her a DS for Christmas… Jason even told her not to get it for her, and I told him that it would be okay, that we could monitor the game playing… so he eventually agreed and was okay with it. Well surprisingly as much as her dad and I love video games she doesn’t do that bad. I mean there are times where she is so focused that you have to snap her out of it to pay attention to you but other than that it hasn’t ever been a problem. She would much rather play outside than play video games, and I think that is when you have a problem…. when your kids no longer want to go outside because of video games, that is bad! Kids need to be outdoors, getting their knees scraped up from riding their bikes/scooters/whatever it is they ride on. I played outside soooo much as a kid and we even had a Nintendo (which I LOVED)! But then again we had 15 acres to play on growing up! We used to hide behind hay bales, it was so much fun! I loved growing up in the country and a small town. I sooo wish I could give that to my kids. I would move back to OK or TX in a HEART BEAT if I could! I would leave like…yesterday!

Anyway, check out these super cute pics of the kids playing the Wii, they are funny.
