The year of the Wii and other things

Against our better judgement and the advice of others; Santa got permission to bring our family a Wii. Brady got the guitar, the whole family got the drums, Gary got Mario Cart and the steering wheel. As you can see, the entire day was spent getting acquainted with the new toy.


So far there has been no fighting and all seem to really enjoy it. Alyssa is thoroughly disgusted with us for breaking our cardinal NO video game rule. We will see how things go.

Lexie got this really great dog from Santa. His name is Lucky and he does really cool tricks. He is decidedly better at the tricks that an earlier version named Poochey that belonged to Alyssa.

She also loves all her new barbies, new pajamies and the stroller for her dolly "Tananna". Tananna's old stroller got broken in the move and she needed a new one desperately.


Alyssa spent the day trying on all her new clothes, texting on her new "scoop" and trying on her new outfits (because she needed new clothes--not)!
