Snowball Fight!

Parker had a rough weekend.  Emergency doctor's appointment on Saturday for Croup and a trip to urgent care on Sunday for an ear infection.  I was pretty bummed that he was sick and going to miss out on the first snow of the year, but Sunday afternoon he had a little bit of energy so we decided to head outside for a few minutes.  Mom, calm down...technically moist, cold air is good for Croup and we only stayed outside for 10 minutes.  As you can see, Parker made the most of those 10 minutes!

Winding up for the pitch...

Direct hit!

Ike's not quite sure what just happened

But Parker is pretty proud of himself

Reloaded and ready for the next victim

Heading toward Turner

Aim and fire!

Surprise retaliation

Whatcha doin down there?

But Dad, he started it!

Parker's first snowball fight wasn't exactly a success

But Parker and Turner made up

And everybody was happy again!
