We Love Wii!






This weekend was our garage sale. Pete's sister, Jill, and her family all came down on Fri around supper and stayed until the sale was over on Saturday afternoon. We had a lot of fun, though I do believe we sent them home addicted to Wii MarioKart. Her boys, Trevor and Ty, LOVED it! Played it as much as they could. It was a lot of fun to watch them all. Especially when they were making their Wii characters. The things they come up with. Trevor named himself something like "$..*^" and the kids just thought that was a riot. They just have the best time together and were laughing and talking so loudly over each other, I'm sure some of you in IN could hear them! :-) When it was time for bed, all 5 kids decided they wanted their sleeping bags out for a sleepover. There was barely enough room for all 5 bags, so we put Livie in our room to fall asleep. After an hour of giggling and overall silliness, we took Noah out and put him in our room and Ty went in Noah's room where Jill and Adam were staying. Thus began the musical bed game. :-) By about 10, we had finally arranged them in beds and they all fell asleep. Not a single sleeping bag was used! haha Funny kids. :-) But, after they went to sleep, we adults stayed up and played more Wii. We played until 1:30am!! So much fun! We laughed and had a great time. The next day was the last day of the sale and it went well. Sold several things and then loaded up several garbage bags to donate and put a bunch of stuff on the driveway for free, and loaded up about 9 bins to take back downstairs to the basement. Much better than the 40 we started with. :-) It was a busy weekend, but a great one. Thanks to Jill and Adam for all their help with the sale and moving our old entertainment center and stuff out of our living room.......Go Wii!!!!!!

We just got a Wii about a month ago. We don't have the Mario Cart game yet. We've been enjoying Boom Blox. We love the Wii, too!
