The boxing game is great and a good workout too! I was dying after playing last night too. Rach kept going back for more though!

The tennis was fun but I didn't do very well. I can't wait to try that when we have 2 remotes and can play against each other. I though I did OK with bowling until I read what Robin scores I haven't tried golf yet.

When I play DS in tennis, I only use my back guy. When I play the computer, I will use the front guy and twist the controller a little too. It puts some spin on the ball.

I think I boxed 8-10 matches on Xmas morning. It gets harder as you get better. I knocked out everyone except my last opponent who I won the decision 2-1.

I stopped after that one. I was tired.

Morning Andy. Do you get much snow in your area or is it more cold winter rains and ice?

Yikes Jeff.......

I woke up to more rain and 50* not bad considering we have a cold front coming through and the temps will drop like a rock by New Year's Day with a possible wintry mix storm.............

 

[JLDSMD]

I think were going to have a hard time deciding which game to pick up today

And at $40-$50 a game, they get costly. We will probably pick one more up around DS's B-day and then nothing until Xmas next year (unless I see something on sale that is a steal).

We may have to have another DIS meet just to play the Wii.

I remember them having some Wii competitions in the sports bar on one night. Maybe we should coordinate that on the next cruise. A Wii competition/olympics. A different game each night/day with a playoff type pairing. Get points for where you finish. That could be pretty cool. Even if it is just the 5 games on the Sports disc, in 5 days/nights, we could get through the whole thing. Maybe even set up teams - so individual bragging rights along with team.

We will be leaving here early this afternoon to go to my sister Vicki's house for our annual Family Christmas Party. Vicki lives near Atlantic City and it takes us about an hour to get there, but we have to pick up one of my nephews on the way down.

Hazel is at the store picking up some last minute items we need to take with us, and I've been sitting here adding cruise pics to the DCL House Party website.

O.K., going to put the boots on now.

Not sure if I'll be back on. We have a sitter coming over this afternoon, mainly to help DS with his Star Wars Lego game on his computer, but Suz and I will go out then for lunch and maybe a movie. Then tonight we have tickets to the Bucks game. Anyone want to come? I have extras.

Al beat both Rachel and I quite badly at tennis last night. It was fun to watch though and Rach thought it ws great to see that he was enjoying it too when he was a little hesitant about it! It's also a lot of fun and funny to watch others do the boxing.

Speaking of fun to watch others play... check this out.

Cassie is using her wrist to play.

Now watch Michael.

Hi Cheryl, actually, it started raining last night and the temps went up overnight, but we are in for a free fall by the end of the weekend...........it's 50* right now, but by Wednesday I think our high will be in the upper 20's............

 

[Cheryl N. WI]

$40-$50 a game is costly so I thought we'll just have to decide on 1 more for now.

We are always up for another DIS meet

A Wii olympics on the cruise sounds like fun

Have fun at your party. We're actually having second about having the House Party. It's 1 week before we leave for vacation. I'm not sure I want to be planning a party and vacation too.

Still thinking about it.

Thanks Cheryl for the link to the pictures. I am so excited to stay there. We are planning a day of just staying at the resort and swimming and finding things around there to do.

 

[Cheryl N. WI]

OOPS! I didn't mean to BOB you!!

 

[Cheryl N. WI]

No problem! I did it to Di earlier. It's very easy to have happen when there are a few people on here.

That's neat, thanks for the video clip!!!

Lori you guys should have fun staying there. I'll see if I can find the booklet we got at check-in that lists the activities they had going on the week we were there. They had different things happening every day but we were at the Disney parks, Sea World and the Space Center the week we were there so we didn't have a chance to check out any of the resort activities.

Too bad we have other plans for tonight or we'd join you at the Bucks game. Have fun!
