Merry Christmas! Slick and I are up on her Grandmother's farm.
It's been a great time here. Last night all 35 members of the family gathered and had the annual party & gift-exchange. Today, most of us gathered again for Christmas dinner. Slick's family is a group of bright & diverse people. Conversations are varied. One minute I'm talking with one cousin about literary giants, then I move on to a conversation with the BMW-driving Network engineer and the next minute I'm talking to Slick's uncle about the bear he shot. Again, varied...
After making us agree to cut back on gift prices this year, the Queen & flyDad surprised us a Wii. Apparently, flyDad sat in a KMart parking lot before 6AM to get one. Needless to say, we are surprised and excited.
So tonight after dinner, we hooked the Wii up to Granny's TV and started playing WiiSports. I got Granny to play. She "humored" me and tried bowling with us. The Queen tried tennis & flyDad played some golf. I think they should have gotten themselves a Wii for Christmas instead.

Wii is the gift this year!! Enjoy!!! I adore ours so far!!!!
We got a wii last year - loads of fun.
We're actually playing "Boom Blox" right now - good fun multi-player game. Everyone loves destroying things.
Sarah's Wii's been on the fritz for several months now, but before that it was a great system for family gaming. Emily got into the games.
Nintendo really turned the video game market on its head with a system that 5-year olds and grandparents can play together and enjoy.
