Death of a Snowman

A new tradition was born in our family this year. I'm naming it "Death of a Snowman" but normal people would call it a pinata.

Only one child hates the new tradition and that child belongs to me. He wept while the other children beat the snowman mercilessly.

Everybody took turns (starting with the youngest grandchild) and that pinata was stuffed so full that everybody got at least 4 or 5 turns.

The kids did a pretty good job.

 But then we had to bring in the big guns.

Josh was thrilled that he was chosen to be master of the pinata.

And of course once Tommy got the goods, he was totally fine with the new game.
