"Wii want to play" too!

Remember those first Wii commercials with the two Asian missionaries saying, "Wii want to play."? What? They weren't missionaries? I swear they were in suits with nametags. Anyway, Wii want to play too!

We got our Wii about two weeks ago with part of our tax return and have been loving it ever since. Joe's completely addicted to (and totally awesome at) Super Mario Kart and Mario Galaxy and while I'm not endowed with awesomeness as Joey is, I have tons of fun trying. We also got Super Smash Bros. and Endless Ocean. That last one was my pick and so far it sucks big time. It got great reviews, but the one time we've played it, it's been snoozer boring. Next I want to get Lego Star Wars, but maybe I'll let Joe pick 'em from here on out :)

Gracie loves racing with her daddy on Mario Kart. I'm not sure why she's so somber in this picture...but I thought that Joey looked cute.

We love our Wii! I got Wii Fit for my birthday- it's totally fun. My niece and nephew love all of the Lego Games (Star Wars, Indiana Jones..etc). They also love Rayman Raving Rabbids 2. I don't think you could go wrong. Our worst game purchase- Madden Football. Bad games happen:).

Wii rules. Wii is a time sink, but it still rules.

We had an "issue" with Mario Kart ordered online and we are still trying to sort it out, but as soon as we get it we totaly want to race you guys online!

Our favorite games right now are Guitar Hero and Animal Crossing: City Folk. AC:CF is fun for kids (best when they can read in all reality) but Ryck and I stay up late playing too. Also, you totally have to buy World of Goo. You can download it from the online store for $15. Fun times.
