Move over "The Edge"...

Ok so...let me first start by saying...my favorite video game in the WHOLE world is Super Mario Brothers 1 and 3...2 is ok. This game was made for plain old Nintendo...which I love! I got soo good on those games...I could beat all the worlds, I knew all the secret passage ways and where all the extra life mushrooms were...and I gotta tell you....when Nintendo 64 came out...I felt a little betrayed! I mean here I had spent countless hours mastering this little guy Mario and his cute little brother Luigi and BAM...they're not cool anymore. Let me also say - that I have become the "cool aunt" - with Jon's nieces and nephews because I can pass Super Mario Brothers. His parents still have a Nintendo that someone got on E-bay - and their grandchildren love it!! So...whenever they get to a tough world...they call in none other than....ME! :) I'm so cool. Anyway - when Jon and I got married, he had a playstation 2...and I was kind of like .... yeah ... forget about it. I am only loyal to Mario. :) Until now.......
So...first it was Dance Dance Revolution....many hours of fun, and even a good workout....next it was Karaoke Revolution (Idol version)...where you actually get to perform for Simon Cowell and Randy Jackson. I seriously sometimes hope that if I pass and win idol on "expert" mode...that maybe Simon will call me and say that Clive Davis wants me to sign a record deal.....the bad part is ... I'm not kidding, I really think that :) haha! I live for Simon to tell me that "I am exactly what this competition is looking for" and Randy to shout that I'm in the "Dawg House!" It's sooo fun!! Poor Jon gets .... "You just attracted a whole neighborhood of stray cats!" but he LOVES it too!!!! :)
And now ladies and gentlemen....let me introduce you to our latest obsession...Guitar Hero...OH YEAH! I am a freakin' rock star!!! Move over "The Edge"...cause I can play some GUIEE-TAR! :) I swear now that Bono will be ringing my Telly at any moment asking for me to pack my bags and hit the road with them!!!
Bottom line....you must try these new games!! Because now that we are parents...we don't go out anymore...so as soon as Kennedy hits the sack we leave for our night life - playing gig after gig at major clubs across the nation!!
ROCK ON!!!!!!!

Oh Rachel, we have some serious Guitar Hero players at our house. Your oldest cousin and his children play it all the time!!! The next time you guys are in town you have to come over and rock! We bought a second guitar for team or competition playing. I, unlike the rest of the family, completely suck. I'm not kidding. The kids are trying to get me to practice because there is another family that plays and they want to do some sort of family against family challenge. They know that I am by far their weakest link. If we were an island they'd vote me off fast!
