Wii Did It

Yes, the Studer family finally jumped on the bandwagon (only 2 years late!) and bought a Wii. We had lots of fun trying it out with the kids this morning. Not surprisingly, they are better than we are at a lot of stuff. Ellie in particular is some kind of Wii prodigy, and seriously schooled both of her parents at Wii bike racing and sword fighting.
The boys' favorite game is an airplane one, and it didn't take Maguire long to figure out how to make the plane do all sorts of flips and dives. Check out his tongue....


Ellie tried out the canoeing game.


Here she is tearing up the racetrack on the bicycling game.



Alex loved the airplane game, too.









Concentrating soooo hard.....



Check out Ellie's extreme sword-fighting skills. Should we be nervous that she takes this so seriously? Maybe it will help to channel some of her 5 year old rage into the game, instead of directing it at her siblings...

Ellie does seem to have a big of 'extra' agression! :) And I love Alex's left elbow lift and of course Maguire's little tongue...just like Papa's!

We got one at Christmas and Caleb is our little wii prodigy as well! How is it that kids can turn it on and know how to play instantly!? I didn't have a clue on how the thing works and he had to show us too! Our family favorite is Family Game Night and Caleb's favorite is Sims Africa! Have fun!! Millers
