You may remember last summer that I posted my new found addiction: watching C-Span. Well, a little update on that.... I still LOVE it! However lately they have had a lot of Book TV and that gets boring. So, I wanted to also introduce the latest "hobby" that has made it's way into the D'Andrea home....
Now normally I would NOT allow a game system to cross the threshold and make a comfy home in our Entertainment Center (more on that soon). But ever since I tried the Wii about a year ago, I knew this was ONE system I could allow to slip in.
Reon and I kept eyeing it often and never feel like we wanted to spend the money on it at that time. Well, Sunday night we had to run out to Target and after we meandered into the electronics section (for fun only) we noticed that the price went down significantly!! So, we held out so we didn't make a rash purchase and came home to research other prices.
We found out that Target had the BEST price By far!!!! So, we discussed it and last night we went out and bought it (plus an extra controller, Nunchuk and, of course, rechargeable batteries!) We set it up lickity split (it was very user friendly) and then it kept me up late into the night (I am embarrassed to admit the ACTUAL time). I was boxing, bowling, playing tennis and MUCH more!
I have to say it was a worthy investment because ALL of my muscle are sore.... I guess that will count for my cross-training!! I will post some of our Wii action shots soon!
Wii party, anyone??
Enjoy!
