We finally bit the bullet and bought. . .

Saturday was Sarah's 15th birthday. For several weeks, I had been asking her what she wanted for her birthday. She would never tell us. Saturday I took her out with me to do some much needed grocery shopping. We were at Costco. She saw the Wii.



She send a text message to Clyde asking if we could purchase it for her Birthday. She really thought he would say NO. Instead, he asked the normal questions, that most fathers do. How much does it cost? Is that a good deal? What else will you need? After giving him all his answers he said "YES"!! Sarah was so excited!!

We purchased it after checking out several different stores. I hate to purchase the first thing I see. I always have a need to make sure I am getting the best deal! Needless to say, I don't think the Wii has had too much rest this week. We can now get rid of our old game system, which is the original PlayStation 1!! Yep, that's how far off in game systems we have been in.

Wii is a ton of fun! Try Mario kart. It is the best. The last game system my family had was a Super Nintendo Entertainment System back in my high school years. T., however, won a wii in January through some of his Best Buy vendors. Enjoy the system! It's a ton of fun. I really like the boxing game!!!

It is going to be a great value, you'll see! We have one, and Skye and I love playing together - racing and bowling are out top games!
