I've created monsters

We've only had our Wii for two days and I think my children are already addicted to it. It has been the source of many hours of amusement for them over the past two days. At least they are doing some of the Wii Fit activities and not just sitting and playing games (but sitting probably occurs most of the time).

I played with it yesterday and my shoulders are sore today. I think it's from the bird's eye game where you have to flap your arms to get to the end. Although, it could be from some of the other games that I tried. I enjoyed most of them. I haven't tried any of the yoga yet, but I've watched Marie do some of the poses. 

We went to the Zoolights at the Oregon Zoo last night. The girls bought holographic 'glasses' to look at the lights. My friend Marcia took our photo:


Stunning, aren't we?! Before we left the house, I tried on the headband and told Claire it was one of the best inventions ever. She said it was a good thing I had a friend to walk with because she wasn't going to be seen with me if I wore that. And then, they walked up to use wearing those glasses. Hmm, who doesn't want to be seen with whom now???

I hadn't been to Zoolights in awhile. They have added some displays and covered more things with lights. I really liked one of the snack shacks they had covered in lights. It was so bright and cheery. I realized while we were there that I haven't been to the zoo in quite awhile. I think I'll need to make sure I visit next spring or summer. Maybe I'll manage to go to one of the concerts they have there.

Only four more blog posts to go to reach my goal. I do know that I don't want to have to blog every day after the challenge is over, but I feel more confident in blogging on a more regular basis than I had been.
