You can't get food poisoning from freezer burn...Just cut away those pieces and the rest is ok to eat.................
Freezer burn is not a food safety risk. It appears as grayish-brown leathery spots on frozen food, and occurs when air reaches the food's surface and dries out the product. This can happen when food is not securely wrapped in air-tight packaging. Color changes result from chemical changes in the food's pigment. Although undesirable, freezer burn does not make the food unsafe. It merely causes dry spots in foods.
Go ahead and use the ham. It should be fine.

this just will affect the texture... but frozen, even for 3 months, should be completely safe to consume
Yes, thaw them out and dice them up and use them. The bones will made a great stock for the soup.

The ham is fine. Just wash it off. Next time blot the ham dry before freezing.
