wii are family!
well half the family got in a little after lunch and the other half arrived a little after dinner time. unfortunately, my sis-n-law, who got here in the first bunch, is already just about home. not long after getting here, she got a call from her husband (the only family member that was not able to come) stating that he had broken his leg and was on his way to the emergency room. she fretted about it and fretted about it and finally got in the car and headed back north. please think happy thoughts in dw’s direction. in the meantime, the rest of us have had a very nice time. we didn’t end up going to the concert in the park gig but we did spend some time on the beach and at the pool. this is our youngest (two year old) niece’s first time at the beach so it was a momentous occasion. she isn’t taking to it quite as quickly as her sister did but she did seem to enjoy digging in the sand (as long as it didn’t get on her – ewww). i think she had a better time at the pool though. she laughed and splashed and had a great time. tomorrow should be fun for her. the mushroom fountain will be on for them to play in (it was too late this evening when we were down there). we came back up around sunset and broke out the wii. so far, the nephew, niece, and sis-n-law have created their miis and played around. i boxed the nephew and came close to beating him but alas, ran out of steam. i didn’t feel too bad though since hubby got ko’d by him in the first round. i at least made it most of the way through the second round. this is the most fun we’ve had with the wii yet. it’s great for us old folks to be able to play with the youngsters, on the same level, and have a good time.
