I told you Nanny rocks!



A few weeks ago the boys were at Wal-Mart trying to figure out a way to spend some Christmas and birthday money that was apparently burning holes in their pockets. It was the same old, same old. Dillon heads for the Xbox games and Dawson wants to check out bicycles and remote controlled cars. But they were instructed to stay together and as they strolled the aisles they found it:





Rockband. It's not just a game, it's like having a band. You can have a singer, a drummer and two guitars all playing at the same time. It's the greatest thing since, well...Guitar Hero.


Separately they can't come close to paying for it. But together? Yeah, together there's just enough. So that night we're tearing open the huge box and setting up stage. Bedtime was extended - I mean, have you ever heard of a rockstar with a bedtime? So they got an extra 45 minutes and were able to get a few songs in.


They were back at it early the next morning before school. But it wasn't long before they added a new band member:



Yes, that's Nanny tearing it up on lead guitar.
