In truth, Catherine was the one that started everyone romping through the snow.  She started to build a snowman family in the front yard, but Patrick couldn't stop himself from attacking the family and kicking the head off the Daddy Snowman, which in turn rolled off and knocked off the head of the Baby Snowman.  A vicious snowball fight was bound to ensue.  The rest, as they say, is history.

Lewis is the only one who is energy efficient enough to have a snowball fight seated on the ground, patiently tolerating the blizzard of snowballs raining atop his head.  But finally after getting blistered one time too many, he got up to exact his terrible revenge.

Though they always started out as normal snowball fights, somehow they always wound up the same way, with Patrick struggling helplessly for air and shrieking, "Help me, Daddy!" at the bottom of a heap of Lewis.
