Finding the Rock Band Kit for the familyI am a little late with this Christmas post, but as the old saying goes better late then never! It has been a hectic week, with work and the family around, but what a wonderful time of year, to Celebrate the Birth of Christ with those you love the most!!!! We had a wonderful time having the 5 youngest boys with us for Christmas! We tried to surprise them with a change of attitude from the past as in the last two Christmas's we had a no video game rule. This year though when they came for Thanksgiving they brought their Wii and we got to see first hand how much fun it was and how much exercise you could get with some of the different games they have out there, so we decided to surprise them and have a Wii Christmas!!! First off I had wanted to get them the Rock Band kit after seeing the Brunners using Skyler's over the summer, it seemed like a really fun family activity that the whole family could get involved in. I had a little trouble though at first finding it and had accidently bought a kit for the Playstation 3 from Walmart online, since they would only give me store credit back and that particular day they had recieved a shipment of Wii's in we decided to get ourselves a Wii system with our credit, in the meantime online on Amazon I found an incredible deal on the Rock Band kit 1/2 of what I was going to pay so I purchased it. Luke and Logan each had a game they wanted, and with a little help from Best Buys reward points we were able to purchase both of their games! Luke's NCAA Football game seems to have been a hit and is actually fun to watch as he and Benji pick BYU as their team when they play out a game. The Rock Band was a hit for the whole family!!! (even I had fun playing the guitar and singing). Most of all though we enjoyed just spending time with the family playing card games and sharing old stories of times long past! Of course we missed Kerstin and her family and Brent and his along with Cynthia and Joe, but were happy to see that each of their families had a wonderful Christmas themselves!
On Saturday we all travelled down to visited with Grandma and Grandpa, we had a nice time, visited, watched a bit of football and had some excellent lunch, it was good times, always fun to listen to Uncle David's humor and wonderful attitude!
To all who happen to venture upon this post we at the Watt's would like to wish you a VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS and a Happy New Year!!!!!

i love rock band! :) I've never played the wii before though. fun.
Sounds like a lot of fun!! I am kinda jealous that you got a Wii. If you ever get tired of it you can send it our way ;). Also if you want to exercise using your Wii I hear Wii fit is really good/fun!
Looks like ya'll had lots of fun! We really missed you guys! We also wanted to say thanks again for the wonderful christmas presents! Also, we have a gift for ya'll when we return home! Love ya!
Thanks for the great time, Mom!! :)
Thank you for the good time son! Obpa mentioned how impressed he was with you all this trip, I think we may have converted him...we had a blast on the Wii tonight for FHE.....you should see my mad tight bowling moves!
I'm glad you and the boys were able to have such a nice Christmas together. Hopefully the new year will bring many wonderful things for you and Darin. Including the chance to meet Baby Seth!
