Wii love raffles!


Dear gods of good fortune:


Thank you for finally noticing us. :)


So our 6 year old daughter has one thing she expects Santa to bring this year (in addition to the many gifts she expects from mom and dad)....a Nintendo Wii. As you may know, these are nearly impossible to come by these days without jumping onto ebay and spending at least twice what they cost in the stores. And speaking of cost, we don't usually spend that kind of money on a Christmas gift. So we were kind of lost on what the answer was.


Then you came along. Apparently Pearson had entered a raffle quite some time ago. He bought two tickets at $5 a piece. Today he found out that he won 3rd prize...a Nintendo Wii. Unbelievable.


It will be a happy holiday in the Hurst household afterall. Now, how do I keep Pearson away from it until Christmas morning?

Whoooo hoooo - I think you'll have to hide it from Pearson to keep him away from it until Christmas. I know that is what would have to happen in our house! :D
