been a strange week for me- worked the weekend before christmas and christmas day, so despite the holiday i feel like i haven't really had my vacation yet. i'm off a few days next week, so after tomorrow at 5pm it's happy hour until after the new year.
santa was good to the fink clan as usual. molly got the pink fishing pole and toothbrush she asked for, brendan was thrilled with his webkinz, and owen had all 6 bionicles that santa brought him built by dinnertime.
the big hit for everyone has been the wii. brendan likes it, owen loves it, and grandma and grandpa are infatuated with it. it's been on almost non-stop since christmas afternoon. the interactivity makes it so much more enjoyable than other games, and the fact that it involves some physicality makes playing it a little more justifiable. it wears on you, though- i'm nursing a sore shoulder thanks to the baseball game, and i'm a little worried owen may develop little leaguer's elbow without playing a single game of little league.
after a few flying controller incidents, the boys are getting better about wearing the wrist straps. still funny watching them jump all around the living room, though. thank god there's not a soccer game as part of the package- i'm not sure my living room could handle it.

Wii Bowling > Real Bowling.
I can score above 37 in Wii Bowling.
Go ahead and pick up Rayman: Raving Rabbids. Avoid Guitar Hero until they can fix the 'mono' sound problems on the Wii version. (Wait until Rock Band comes out also.)
Glad to see you had fun on Christmas!
played raving rabbits in the mall- hilarious. got big brain academy, which is fun (i'm still at a B--, and my brain is currently at 1250g). next purchase may be mario party or carnival games- both look fun.
