The Saturday Evening Post

Snowball Express - watched expressly to put us in the mood for a snowball fight.

"An optimist stays up until midnight to see the new year in. A pessimist stays up to make sure the old year leaves."

You can call us pessimists if you want, but we didn't just make sure it left, we shot it out to make sure it was dead and gone!

Josiah's great shot of Isaac's great shot.

He's got a victim.

The same victim that three other hoodlums have, in fact.

We girls know something about ganging up on people too.

Ben Franklin said, "Be always at war with your vices, at peace with your neighbors, and let each year find you a better man." Somehow it seems to me that we have that switched around, warring with our neighbors and giving our violent side free rein.

But appearances have been known to be wrong before. You should have heard all the neighborly good wishes - they were flying thicker than the snowballs.
Which is the way it should be.
