I just want you to know that after a nice (but rather quick) FHE lesson, the boys were able to play their new game "Super Smash Brothers Brawl." Yes, Trevor's wait for an entire 1 1/2 days was well worth it, although hard for him, I am sure. We figured out a way when dad came home to turn in enough games for trade that weren't played to make this game cost pennies. The boys benefit greatly from Zane's "make it work" brain. I hope they appreciate Zane's creativity and don't get upset(eventually they will appreciate it right?) my need for order - game off at 8:15pm - time for bed. I think I will always be the bad guy when it comes to video games, but it sure is fun to see the kids play the Wii with their dad and jump around like maniacs. Just for the record - Trevor and Boston were sweaty when they went to bed. That's kind of gross I know, but that does mean they got a bit of a work out from this game and in the winter that's sometimes all that we can ask.

Finally - good has come! I like your rules. If it were up to me, there would be no video games period. I wish all kids would just read, write, or play outside. I am a true "meanie bo-beanie" as Zach would say. I'm glad good has finally come to your boys and I know they get a work out!
Let me tell ya.. you type in the wrong address to your blog and you end of with some very interesting reading. not suitable for anyone under age... well any age!
Joel keeps mentioning the Wii. We had a great time but don't know that I want one right now.
btw, remember how you said you wouldn't read my blog because its not pretty. well I am not going to leave any comments if i have to do word verifications. what is this a typing test? :P
So glad happieness and order was restored to the universe and Trevor's long wait finally ended!
Trey saw the ads from Sunday on the table last night and got so excited when he pointed out the game. He said- "This is Trev's game." (He read the post.) So fun!
Rich is the game Nazi around here, but I have to have it off by 8 PM otherwise our weak bedtime routine is REALLY shot. Rich asked me last night why the rest of the world can get their kids to be by 8:30 PM and ours are still walking around out of bed at 10 PM. I NEED STRUCTURE , but I STINK at reinforcing it. Oh well, no one is perfect.
Miss you!
