Wii wii wii all the way home
My family has jumped on the bandwagon. We finally did it. After months of talking about it . . .
we bought a wii!!!
It is actually Kimberlie’s (early) birthday present, as well as a (belated) father’s day present for me. This is my first system since I got the NES back in 1987. I still have it by the way. I can already tell that the Wii is going to be an expensive hobby. Last night we used some Best Buy gift cards to score a second game and Wiimote. I’m predicting Guitar Hero at some point in the future.
We brought it home last Thursday and set it up just before Mackenzie’s birthday party, where we had a neighbor give it a try. Then we ended up playing it all day Sunday after church . . . so much that my shoulder was sore for much of the day on Monday. The boss is letting me borrow Sonic & Mario @ the Olympics, so it looks like tonight will be another Wii night.
I know, a video game system wasn’t exactly part of my new fitness plan, but at least this is more active than watching television or playing a traditional video came system.

Congrats
Beware of Sonic and Mario… it absolutely wears you out! Make sure you do some warm up exercises first if you don’t want wii-elbow 
Smash Bros is the best game on Wii IMHO

[...] once with the neighbors. Bowling just isn’t our thing. If we feel like bowling, we have a Nintendo Wii to keep us entertained. Mackenzie didn’t really care for it much either, but as you can see [...]
