The First Annual Horsman Family Snowflake-Making Contest

19 Dec

We had a snowflake-making contest last evening, and I was deemed, by my two eldest sons, to an unfair judge, which I had to agree with.  We need some impartial judges!  So, I turn to you, my dear blog readers, to help choose a winner.  Here are the entries. (Only four, since you needed to be five or older to compete, and even that seemed to be a stretch.  Dave and I watched with our hearts in our throats as Zeke cut his snowflake!  You need to use heavy-duty sissors to cut through multiple folds in paper…oh dear, I’m thankful Zeke didn’t cut a finger off!)

Super Zeke by Zeke (notice all the Zs?)

We all made several, but the rules were that we had to use the first snowflake that we cut.  Here are a few more of my favs…

    Oh man! How to choose? Am I a bad guy for not picking all of them? I wish that the names weren’t attached, but I’m going with… Circles of Destruction. (How festive!)

    I have to stick with girl power and pick Jacquline Frost. I am impressed though at all of your ablilities. You came up with some pretty nifty ones after your first ones were done (did I just say “nifty?”).
