Guitar Hero

So we've been in Geneva visiting my parents since yesterday and today my sister Wendy and her family came as well. They are spending tonight in a hotel here since there's not enough room for all eight of us at my parent's house. They invited us to come swim with them at the hotel tonight and Maria and Sam had a blast playing in the pool with their cousins. We were amazed at how confident Sam is in the water since his swim lessons earlier this winter.

But the big hit of the day was the Wii game Guitar Hero III that Brandon got for Christmas and brought to share with us. Its a Wii game that comes with a guitar that you use as the controller and it really feels like you're playing the guitar to the music. Another added bonus - most of the songs are from the 80's and so are familiar to me too. I've never seen Ben enjoy a game like that before, but we all had a lot of fun playing it. So we ordered ourselves one - of course being a "hot toy" this season, its back ordered but we hope to have it in a couple of weeks.
