The boys each got a Nintendo DSi for their birthday. I had originally bought each of them a new one, but Eric decided he didn't need his anymore because he had an Ipod Touch. So he sold me his DS for $60. So I returned one of the new ones. Then I had a dilemma on which twin would get a new one and which would get a used one. But then I found a Groupon special for 50% off horseback riding. Zach has been begging to go horseback riding, but every trail riding company requires the kids to be at least 7. So, I decided to give Zach the used DS and also a sunset trail ride with Mario for his 7th birthday. It was a good deal for Zach because he didn't even know his DS was used until he questioned me about spending so much money on new ones. He knows that I am cheap and don't normally spend so much money on birthdays (or Christmas). I then admitted that his was used but as a consolation prize he got to go riding. So he was very happy.

I'm so glad that Zachary was able to go horseback riding with his dad for his birthday.
Yeah, I think I spent so much on Justin's DS LIGht that he could have gotten a DSi...oh well. I hope all the boys enjoy them and get years and years of use out of them!
