Wii or is it Weeeeeeeeeeee?
I finally broke down and bought a Nintendo Wii yesterday and I think that it is the best $300 bucks I have ever spent. I have always had the Nintendo, PlayStation's, Atari...even going way back to Intellivison! I like playing games but never have been a hardcore "gamer". Well this is the most fun I have ever had playing any game! I don't know how PlayStation and Xbox can contend with the Wii...the interactive part is what makes it the best out there. If anyone has suggestions on good games, please let me know. We have Wii Sports, Wii Fit, Mariocart, Carnival Games, a bonus game that came with it...just random games like pool, ping pong, shooting game etc and my favorite the Cheerleading game. It works with the Wii Fit, you practice and then go to tryouts and become a cheerleader! We started playing at 5pm and just now shut it down at 9pm! Ya, ya, I know...too much game system is not good for you. My comment back to you is..."You must not have a Wii then!"

Take me out to the ballgame...Yes with a Cub fan
Monday was gameday...Even our Chicago boy Cody couldn't resist the warm reception of "Baseball Heaven" a.k.a Busch Stadium. We arrived plenty early got to our seats, took Madison and Owen down from our seats to try and get some autographs... no luck though. We had great seats...everyone had their Cardinal gear on (Except for Cody) but they lost to the Rockies. One highlight is that doesn't happen very often was that Madison, Grandpa, Sarah, Cody and O-Diggity got on the Jumbo-Tron. I saw the camera man heading their way and got my camera ready to capture it. Look close and you can see...
Family FUN and Vacation!!!!!!!!!!!
Well Saturdy started off with everyone packing up to head out for the zoo...Long story short, no parking spots within two miles of the zoo so we headed to Grant's Farm. We all enjoyed the tram ride in and headed in to see the animals. No one was interested in feeding the baby goats...I was silently glad for this. I didn't want to touch the nasty things and they smelled even worse. We moved right on to the carousel, then slowly moved down to the elephant show...this was the highlight of the day for me. We all sat in our seats right in front of "BUD" the 13,000 lb, 12 foot tall African Elephant. He was just standing there taking everything in waiting for the show to start. His trainers were giving him "snacks" as Madison put it and letting him drink right from the hose. His trainer would stick the hose right into his trunk and then remove it about a minute later. This continued off and on for about 15 mins. The show started and the trainer has only said about five words and BUD cut loose! Yes...his very impressive stream of pee was spraying the ground like a fire hose that had just been turned on. He continued to do this for about a minute! I think he could of filled up a swimming pool with the volume he got rid of. Then as he was finishing...You guessed it...He dropped about 250 lbs of dung and the crowd went "ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhwwwwwwwwwww". I laughed and thought wow...that's impressive.

Finally....Vacation starts!
Yes, today is the first day of my vacation...The basement is finished (I've been finishing that for the last two years...pictures to come later) and everyone is headed to the STL for a week of fun filled family fun. We decided this year to stay close to home and have Grandma, Grandpa, Sarah, Cody, Owen and Cam come to our house. We will be hitting the zoo, Grant's Farm, of course we are going to a Cardinal game and doing other various things. Madison has a two softball games while everyone is here, she wants all of them to see her play. Stay tuned for pictures of the event filled week.

"Dad, you sure those girls weared thier hair on purpose like that?"
I was going through some things downstairs tonight and Madison was looking with me. I was going through all my sports memorabilia to decorate my new accomplisment downstairs in finishing the basement. Finally... a place where I can hang my autographs pictures, balls, magazines, flags and other misc things to admire. I found some old school pictures of me and friends in the Rubbermaid container's I was going through. Madison wanted to see them, so I showed her and she made a funny face. She asked, "Dad why is their hair so poofy and why does it look like that?" I explained that's how the girls wore their hair back then. She was cracking up and said that looked very funny. I didn't think I was getting old and out of touch with everything but...It took my back thinking of high school and all the poofy do's and how big the hair back then really was.
