Lacy here everyone. Okay, in the first chapter, we heard mention of a yearly snowball fight so guess what? That's right, we're gonna see said fight. Now since Grace is pregnant, she won't be taking part. She, along with Teyla, will be sitting on the side lines with Torren and Carmen, watching. The real question for this chapter; With Teal'c and Ronan on the same side, does anyone really stand a chance? Have fun!
Disclaimer: I own Grace, Carmen and Anna.

Grace wanted to whine, so she did. "But David! I'm always part of the snowball fight!"
David bit back a smile. "Be that as it may, you're pregnant Grace. For our baby's sake, you're sitting it out this year."
Grace huffed and pouted. "Fine but I'm not happy about it."
David kissed her. "I didn't expect you to be."
Grace took her jacket and scarf. "How are we explaining my sitting out to Dad?"
"TJ and I already solved that." David said. "You'll be looking after Carmen with Teyla and Torren."
Grace thought it over. Well, it wasn't a snowball fight but she never turned down time with her nephew and goddaughter.
"Okay, okay, I give." Grace said. "I'll sit with Teyla and the kids." she smirked in a way that reminded David of Jack. "But don't think I won't be cheering Teal'c and Ronan on while they kick your asses."
David dropped his head back. He should have seen that coming.

"GO RONAN! GET DAVID!" Grace shouted from where she was sitting with Teyla and the kids. "COME ON UNCLE TEAL'C! DAD'S RIGHT THERE!"
"GRACE!" Jack and David shouted back.
"Who's side are you on?" Daniel asked.
Grace grinned. "Guess."
"Hers." all the men chorused. That was Grace's standard answer. She was on her side and no one else's.
"Did your father question why you're not playing?" Teyla asked Grace once the boys, TJ and Sam got going again.
Grace shook her head. "I told him when we got here I was gonna help you watch Carmen and Torren this year." she grinned. "Told him maybe now he'd have a chance of winning."
The two watched Jack get hit in the face by a snowball from Teal'c.
"I don't know about that." Teyla laughed.
Grace laughed too. "Yeah, me either."

Grace looked around her parents' living room at her father, Everett and assorted uncles and brothers. Minus Teal'c and Ronan, they all looked like they'd been bowled over by a blizzard. Teal'c and Ronan were helping Sam in the kitchen with drinks while TJ and Teyla made sure the boys were still breathing. She'd just come down from putting Carmen and Torren down for naps and moved to sit beside David. Thankfully she had a number of baggy sweaters that were doing a nice job of hiding her stomach from her father.
"How ya doing?" Grace asked her boyfriend as she ran her fingers through his hair.
David grunted. "I hurt in places I didn't know could hurt."
Grace smiled. "You're one of the ones who decided it was a good idea to go up against Teal'c and Ronan."
"Shut up, Grace." the room chorused.
"Hey," Ronan said coming in. "just because you lost doesn't mean you have to take it out on Grace."
"Fine," the room started again. "shut up Ronan."
Grace snorted. "Oh yeah, that's was a good idea."
