snowman

      When a person, take for instance a husband, is out in -35°C weather for four hours wielding the northern handyman's secret weapon (a snowblower), take for instance Mark, and for example's sake we'll assume Mark has a goatee,

then that goateed person who is a husband named Mark will look like Father Christmas when he comes in hoping for hot chocolate.

Or he could just drink his own face.

We are having a very cold snap for here in Arkansas, but after seeing these pictures I will try not to complain.

LOL! What a good sport Mark is to let you take those pictures of him AND post them to your blog. :)

Oh what a lovely couple you make (I'm not saying that because of the icicles on his goatee). Mark has beautiful eyes, very soulful. What an awesome shot!

I could do with some icicles on my facial hair too. I feel I am being cheated out of my Afghan winter, and whilst it is snowing here, the snow turns to slush soon afterwards. Urgh.

I adore your colour photos as well. And I especially love the one of you, Mark and the dolphin, it is adorable.
