Wii-Day!

This past Friday, we celebrated Wii-Day - i'm so proud of my boys who worked hard on extra jobs to earn enough to finally unbox our brand new Nintendo Wii video game!

The next day, we took a victory visit to the local Game Stop video game store to compile a price list on future games to save up for.  And to think that i was afraid that the boys would stop having a reason to work on their commission jobs - thanks to the video game industry, the incentives go on and on! 

Oh, by the way - in addition to being a great lesson on saving and spending for the kids, the Wii is turning out to be quite a physical workout for them (particularly the boxing game!)  For those of you who have been hiding under the proverbial rock and are unfamiliar with the unique wireless motion sensor controllers for the Wii, here's a sample video showing how the Wii boxing game works:
