Good sport

Hannah got a Cootie game for Christmas.  Everytime I ask her if she wants to play she usually says, "No thanks."  Tonight she finally said "Ok, mom.  Let's do that.  What is Cootie?"  I explained to her that it was a game that you would have to roll a dice to get peices to build a Cootie guy and then when your guy is done being built, you would jump up and yell 'Cootie!".

I wasn't really sure how well she would actually get the concept of it.  We got the peices out and I figured I would just tell her the rules (are there really rules) as we went along.

The first game, she won.  She understood the rules and did well understanding which numbers belonged to which items.
The second game, she won.
The third game, I finally won!
The fourth game.....well, watch this video to see for yourself

Biggest waste of time

BUT also the most fun waste of time.

Each time I would log onto the Apple App store the game Angry Birds would be at the top.  Almost as if calling to me "Buy me! Buy me!".  It had tons of positive reviews and has been on the list of Top Grossing Apps since I have had my iPhone.

A few months ago it was finally time to break down, spend the 99 cents and see what all the hype is about.

Oh my WORD this game is fun!

You get a board like this.

Then you swing out to the left where there is a slingshot with a line of birds.  You have to slingshot the birds into the pile of stuff to try to knock out all of the green guys.  There are different birds that do different things etc, etc.  I shouldn't have to explain it too much, I am sure most of you have played it.

Anyways, I finally beat the game. 

Then I found the holiday addition...here we go again.
