Papa and his hoop



So I've been asked to update my blog and, of course, since I just received from my kids my own Wii Fit, what a great time to blog. Bob set it up and got it running. Jason started breaking all the records, until Monique stepped to the plate (she rocks at the Step Dancing), Tracy does a mean Tightrope and then Bob got off the couch and pretty much rocks at everything. Jesse has a couple records of his own. This Grammy Tammy/Golf Girl just can't figure out the balance angle. I've tried the ski jump dozens of times and Haley says "Not like a snowball, Tammy Tammy". I'm not bad at the Yoga Breathing exercise, however. Well, crap, I can breathe, you know.

But the best is when I return from a day of golfing and board meetings and walk into the Wii Room (aka Living Room) and find Grandpa Dan aka Papa swinging to the Hula Hoop. He waits til the kids leave and then tries to beat all their daily records. He's got everyone beat on the Jogging Run and the little guy in the bubble going down the river but I just love to watch him Hula Hoop.

Postscript: Dan wants me to remind you that the above video does not represent him.....because he does it with five hoops. Who knew?

That's a weird video. I only watched for a little bit and she never actually did the hula hoop on her waist. Anyway, yeah, Papa and Bob will hold all the records eventually.
