Let me preface this tale by reminding you that I have 4 boys.<\/p>\n
I just opened my upright freezer and discovered two tall glasses, each containing a Beanie Baby in G.I. Joe gear inside a solid cylinder of ice.<\/p>\n
The clear glass contained a white tiger with a machine gun and some sort of headgear I couldn’t identify for sure — perhaps night-vision goggles.<\/p>\n
The green plastic tumbler contained a purple rabbit (I think it’s a rabbit–it’s kind of hard to tell when it’s encased in solid ice) with a machine gun and wearing (naturally) a desert camo helmet.<\/p>\n
Each Beanie warrior’s dog tags were frozen at the bottom of the glass, and each face was just slightly above the ice level (presumably so they could breathe in the freezer).<\/p>\n
I can’t wait for my boys to get up in the morning and tell me what this was about . . .<\/p>\n
Never a dull moment!<\/p>\n
