The BIG weekend.

Hope everyone is having a great weekend. We have survived Thanksgiving and Black Friday (oh, and my 41st birthday) so far. I actually went shopping yesterday - I'm not sure that going Christmas shopping for other people is my idea of a fun time for a birthday. Hmmm......

The kids bought be an iTunes card - $25 and I'm down to $7.04. Darn Thanksgiving Weekend sales! LOL!!

I added the following to the collection:

Scrabble
Monopoly (the Classic Version)
Trivial Pursuit (hellllooooo, does anyone know the answers in the Entertainment category? THAT made me feel old last night!)
Toy Story Mania (for the younger 2 that the above would be hard for)

and just now, pulled the plug on "The Settlers" i had posted about earlier.

Yesterday while venturing to Disney to take advantage of their "Get in Free on your Birthday" deal - in the form of using the money to upgrade my 3 day ticket to a Seasonal AP - my mom and I left Grandpa with the kids. He and the oldest were playing Monopoly via wifi. They were STILL playing the same game when we got back! It was nice they could play in comfy chairs and not have to worry about the other 2 kicking the board. They were able to play horses and watch Santa Buddies while they played - everyone was happy.

Thanksgiving had been a day of Scrabble over wifi. Other than some quirky issues with the game - that they fixed in Monopoly (the Touch didn't go to sleep in Monopoly) and some wayyyyy funky words allowed, that was a hit too. So if you are at all interested in them, be sure to pick them up this weekend on sale.

Ohhh, and while they were playing over wifi on 2 Touches, there is a setting for "Pass and Play". Which is cool, you can play Monopoly in the car, or scrabble with no pieces to loose!! Of course, the child would prefer to have her own and then play over Bluetooth. Don't think Santa got that hint this year.

Now I'm going to go try to warm up (hello, in the 30's this morning in Florida!) and start looking at the Settlers Tutorial. I have a bunch of stuff to print out and prep for the great american doctor marathon on Monday & Tuesday, so today might be my only relax and play day. Oh wait, I was going to Best Buy to check on a Christmas Present. Hmm, relax after that!

Enjoy the weekend everyone!
