It was pretty cold...

I thought you guys might get a chuckle out of this. These pictures are from the INSIDE of our house last week during the deep freeze. From looking at them you would think we lived in an igloo.

(as she attempts to put her toes in her mouth and act like she biting the nails off) M: that's just wrong....not to mention disgusting. I need to cut them. Please give me your foot. O: (as nervous as be) just wait a minute.....**big sigh**....(gr
