Game Night

We started game night Saturday night, and since then every night has been game night. I got these cards from the $1 bin at Target (can’t beat the $1 section right?). You know these games! Go Fish, and Old Maid!

Well, Emma has never played any of these two games before. So she was a little excited. But in this picture she look like she’s drunk. She’s drunk on game night!

Game night started out fine and dandy. We played each game several times. The IT Guy and I let her win of course. We tried to see which card she needed in order to win.

The cards are big and her little hands are small, so we had a meltdown about her not being able to hold the cards properly. Geesh!

And then we decided to not let her win, because after all, she has to know that you can’t win all the time. That’s life kid, get over it! So, when she lost all hell broke loose. No kidding, she got mad, and said that she was not going to play anymore. Wow! Look at that face! Of course, what you don’t see is that The IT Guy and I are laughing at her. Yes, we’re that mean! We laughed at her! Because it was funny. Admit it, you know you laugh at little kids who cry when they lose!

Oh Lord, this photo kills me! Look at that hair! Look at that face! And she wasn’t that thrilled that I was taking her picture.

And then it was over in a flash. I think she’s mental. Really, I do! But every night we’ve played at least one game of each and she’s gotten better at losing. We played before she went to bed tonight, and The IT Guy won at Go Fish, and she was fine! No fussing. But let me tell you, I really love game night, even though it is every night!
