Boy did I have a crazy adventure late Saturday night into Sunday morning. Dan and I talked about getting an Nintendo Wii....
I was the one that really wanted one. We have NEVER played one, but we heard from our friends that its awesome..so we knew that we would want one and they are hard to get.. My friend Ashley called me Sat. afternoon and she said they go on sale at the East side Wal-mart in Sioux Falls at midnight meaning Sunday...so I decided to leave Brookings at 8:30 PM and I arrived in Harrisburg around 9:30 and we left about 9:45 and we were at the walmart at 10:00.. we got where they were selling them and there were four chairs out and they were already taken... they only got 4 in.. so since Ashley and I had called around town to see who was getting them in the Wal-mart on the West of Sioux Falls was releasing them at 8 in the morning, so we booked it over there and we called while we were on our way.. We got there about 10:30PM and there were already 2 people in line. There was an elderly lady there at 8:00 to make sure she got it.. So we decided we were going to park it for the night.. We spent the night in Wal-mart.. I watied for 10 hours.. to get this thing... I am nuts/crazy.. I had my camera with me, so we took some pictures of our adventure.. we met a really nice guy that was at the other Wal-mart so he came over to the other one right after us... We FINALLY got them around 8:15 and they only had 5 and me and Ashley were 3 & 4.. We went out for breakfast and then headed home.. it was a long drive back to Brookings. Then I got home about 10:30 and Dan and Tyler was excited that I was home. We then headed to Wal-mart in Brookings to get a few things.. I called Brookings a couple days ago and yesterday and last night to see when they were getting them in and they would say a word about when.. "some time today" Watertown was selling there's at noon..so we were prepared to go wherever.. We set it up and played our new fun Wii and it is AWESOME... it was worth it.... I went to bed around 2:30 and woke up about 5:30.... not much sleep :( oh well... I will include some pictures of our adventure....
ENJOY!! Have a great week!!

OH MY GOODNESS.
Yep, I think you are nuts!

I agree with Tracy I can't stand to be in the Sioux Falls ones for more than 10 minutes. They are so crazy hectic. I guess I am not a big video gamer so it doesn't even intise me.
I am not a big video game person either, but Wii is fun and interactive.. you actually get a workout on some games... I still think I am nuts and I won't do it again.. it was adventure with my best friend and you know friends do some crazy things at times :)
