As you know, Libby sees a basketball game on TV and exclaims, "Kee-Kee Ball!". She loves to watch her big cousin, Keaton (or as she calls him..."Kee-Kee") and goes to as many ball games as she can to support him! Tonight was the final tournament game between Keaton's Greenville Tigers and Galena. 
Gary discovered during the last game that a 25 cent purchase of a "Ring Pop" (which is a sucker that is on a 'ring') was quite worth it! We came prepared with a Ring Pop and Libby proved me wrong...she did love it.
As the game went on, it became late (almost 1 hour past Libby's bedtime) but she was still cheering on Kee-Kee with White Bear clinched in her arms. The Tigers ended up loosing by just 3 points...what a great game, though!!
Libby and Daddy share her first Thin Mint. Growing up, my mom put them in the freezer for a special treat! I think since Libby is getting another front tooth that it will be a perfect snack for her! Look at that smile!
I took Libby outside to play in the snow this afternoon. She looked like a Purple Monster with her little snow suit on! She walked around for a while and was really curious about the "no". Most of you know how Libby is about food/dirt on her hands...she wants to wipe it off right away. When she took her mittens off and touched it 
You'll notice that her mittens do not match. These were the only ones that I could find. She didn't seem to mind...she was too interested in walking in the snow.
I thought it would be a great idea to get her 4-Wheeler out. It ran well on most of the driveway, but would not make it up the slick/wet hill. It was so funny watching her try to climb on and off of it with her huge snow suit on! 
After our busy morning running errands, we went to Mark & Dena's for Lilly's 3rd Birthday party. Last year it was a princess theme and this year it was themed, "Tinkerbell". After dinner, the kids headed to the newly finished basement to play dress up. Kayla and the "Birthday Girl" show off their style. 
After the candy fell out of the Tinkerbell pinatta, the kids couldn't wait to dig in.
Lilly waits with the triplets for the cake.
Libby dug into the cake and ice cream. Yummy.
TJ steals a litte kiss from his girlfriend. I love this picture!!!
Trying out the goofy glasses was a lot of fun!
TJ and Libby watch some Barney before bed.
As the night came to a close, Lilly went around checking everyone's temperature. Luckily, I think it is not the flu...it's just all of the junk we ate!!
One of my favorite things about Libby's pretend play is watching her mimic me and Gary. She has a mini-kitchen in our kitchen that she "cooks" on while I make dinner. Tonight, while Gary worked on his laptop, she got hers out, turned on (which is a task in itself) and pulled up a "chair" so she could work on her computer....just like her Daddy. 
There's that "CHEESE" smile again. Where did she get that?? (And yes, the hair appointment is tomorrow, so bye-bye baby mullet).
Today around lunch time, Gary called and suggested that one of us took the rest of the day off to get Libby home. After my car accident last week with Libby in the car, I am a little scared to think about having her with me during bad weather. Since we all know that hospitals don't close early (and the managers were on a "freeze" and not allowed to leave) and Gary's boss had to leave to get his little girl, he got voted as the parent to get Libby. He said that they had a blast! Here she looks like she is in hog heaven sitting in Daddy's Lazy-Boy, eating popcorn and drinking juice.
You may recall from previous blog entries that Gary & I love Little People. We have an entire town for Libby to play with! Gary loves to quiz Libby, "Which one is the Lion?" Here they are playing with the school house.
Hey Libby, what does a pirate say?? 
Mommy gets into the Little People playing. I love this picture 
Gary's attempt at looking up his nose.
We didn't leave Tucker out of our play session. Libby was laughing so hard in this picture (we were "fake" jumping on Tucker) that she has tears in her eyes! Too bad I was not able to have play day all day with Libby & Gary, but a few hours before bedtime was nice. 
After visiting Joni's newly updated blog, I was inspired to snap a few pictures at our bathtime. Libby loves her bath! As soon as she hears the water start to run, she begins to strip and run to her "Baaah, Baaah" (Libby for "Bath, Bath"). Here she is reminded to take off her braceletts before she can jump in.
Another swim lesson song...."This is the way we wash our face, wash our face, wash our face...." You get the idea!
When you see the title of this entry is “Game Night” and you glance down to see that the first pictures is of some of my aunts and uncles sitting around my parent’s table, I am sure you’re first thought is something along the lines of Euchre, Yahtzee, or even Bunko. When I say “Game Night” it is more in the literal since…A Squirrel Fry. 
Gary & I went over to Mom and Dad's for dinner tonight. My aunts & uncles Ed & Rowena, Jeanne & Jim (well, sort of uncle), Mark & Denise and cousin Derek joined us to eat Mark's catch of Squirrel. Luckily, Mom also made yummy chicken for those of us who passed on the game. Above, Denise, Libby & White Bear pose for a photo (pull your shirt down, Libby!)
Pop & Libby take a moment to look at last night's blog entry. (That belly is showing again!)
While the adults were finishing up dinner, Libby was having fun enteratining herself. She would go to Dolly's food dish (my parent's cat) and pick up a few pieces of food..........
........Then she would run into the living room where Dolly was sleeping on a blanket and feed her the food. You will note that she had already given Dolly her Valentine's Dog for her to sleep with (Nonna, I think we left that over there!)
I had a better picture of Pop and Libby, but I just thought this one was funny! Libby was sitting on Dad's lap posing for a picture. Just when she was sure he was looking at the camera and not at his plate...she swiped a few baked beans. 
Libby was quite a ham...even so far past her bedtime! Nonna took off her earrings (they are not posts) and clipped them to Libby's ear. She thought it was so funny!
This little jealous thing was minding her own business until she saw her Pop and Gracie dancing from across the room. She took off running, through the crowd and to the dance floor! They had to let her cut in!
I didn't get a good picture of Rocky, Ashley and Libby together. You can tell from the only one that I did get that we are all sad (just look at Libby's face) to see Daniel go. Good luck and please be safe!
