At my house we used to be obsessed with “Rock Band” for Wii. I loved playing the drums, my daughter would rock the guitar, and my son would sing or at least something that sort of resembled singing. Unfortunately "Rock Band" is so yesterday and being a progressive mom, I got to move with the times to keep up with my kids.
The latest craze at our house is “Just Dance” for Wii. It all began at the beginning of the school year when the kids came home raving about the game they were allowed to play in gym class. Both of my kids said it was a load of fun and eventually talked me into buying a copy and giving it a go myself. I discovered it was a fun game we could all play together and because I loved it and could get quite the workout playing it we eventually collected all four versions. All you have to do is mimic the dancer’s moves on screen and rack up the points.
Each version has songs that would appeal to everyone and makes an ordinary quiet night at home into a rip roaring party. Be forewarned, you will work up a sweat and you will have a blast! I highly recommend it for a jolly good time.
It is time for another round of Tuesday Tunes with Holli at “Holli‘s Hoots and Hollars“and Lauren at “Outside the Frame“! I look forward to this blog hop every week so I can share the songs that I am rocking along to.
This past weekend we had to turn our clocks back thanks to daylight savings time. I still get up at the same time every day, but now it is still dark!! It seems so early with no sun. All I want to do is stay in bed, snuggle with my warm dogs, and ignore the alarm clock. Unfortunately, I can’t. I must get up and let the dogs out, pack my kids lunches, get them up, dressed and pressed, and out the door in time to catch the school bus. After all that, any thoughts of going back to sleep are out the window. Tik Tok goes the clock!
Today I decided I was going to fire up the Wii and play “Just Dance 2” and try something I had never tried before. Before today I always chose the option to “Just Dance”. Today I chose “Just Sweat”. Once again “Tik Tok” by Ke$ha was front and center as I followed the moves of the dancers on screen. They weren’t kidding about sweating! You can work up a sweat and have a blast doing it! Keep on rocking until next time I give you another glimpse into the life of a trucker’s wife.
