Christmas 08

So because I'm so far behind I figured I'd just put a few pics from some of the thing's we've done (which hasn't been much) in the past few months. We had a great Christmas until Christmas Eve, when our 6 year old Camren broke our LCD TV that wasn't even a year old yet. It was sort of innocent but needless to say I had to leave the house for awhile and cool off so I didn't get too upset at him. So the kids got an Xbox (just an original) for Christmas, we had previously had one that burned up but we didn't worry about replacing it because last Christmas the kids got a Wii, but they really missed the Xbox and we still had all the games and other stuff so when they were on sale for 29.00 we decided to get them one. Well that is all they did pretty much the whole day, until about 7pm. Christian got a new Wii game and they thought they would try it out. Camren is a little ADHD and didn't wait for Christian to put the strap back on the controller (who knows why it was off in the first place)They were playing a game of ski ball and when he went to roll his ball the controller slipped out of his hand and went right into the TV. Completely broke the LCD and it is not repairable. I know it's only a TV but still they are so expensive it was just a little frustrating. So a few words to the wise, WEAR THE STRAP there's a reason they have them and just get a junk TV for the kids gaming systems then your only out a few bucks. But we really did have a great Christmas, it was nice to spend time as a family. We missed our families back in Utah but that's something we've gotten used too!
