FOREVER WINTER.

ice. We are getting a little tired of the winter around here. This past week brought us more snow and ice and freezing temperatures, and we are just OVER IT. It is stressful. The piglets are way too big to be living indoors, but after a day of freezing sleet and snow it just seemed cruel to make them sleep outside. So inside they come, trailing chaos in their wake.
