I chose Dyane Ford's Christmas Challenge on Vashti Quiroz-Vega's Blog. What a dark tale about Jack Frost & Santa Claus - I love it! Dyane, like Vashti, has an amazing penchant for words. I enjoyed the story thoroughly!

Marcie chose The Important Life Lessons from The Christmas Story from Heidi's Wanderings. "I Loved her Humorous post on the meaning of Christmas."
When the World Says Quit
Stacey chose When The World Says Give Up . . . from Darlene Nemeth. "This is so true, sometimes we parents have so much that weighs us down, that we might be quicker to just give up or not do something. When maybe if we tried that one more time to achieve our goals, because perseverance pays off. My kids have proven it so many times, while trying to master, even something as simple as a video game, they learn that if they keep trying they will eventually master that level."

Jan chose I know they can do it...So do they. from Ladyblogger. "This post stood out to me because I completely relate. My children are much younger and they are very reliant on me to do everything which can get exhausting and frustrating. Every time I feel this way though I remind myself how quickly it will all go by and how much I will miss this time. It is nice the author has this special treat she makes for her children, no matter how old they are because it is not about the food, it is about the comfort they all feel sharing this one, favorite treat together."
CranOrangeDoughnutsC
Megan chose #CartonSmart Cranberry Orange Baked Doughnuts from A Kitchen Hoor. "I really enjoyed the Cranberry Orange Baked Donuts post from A Kitchen Hoor. I've never made donuts before, but these look delicious! I want to give them a shot!"

Tiffany chose Handmade Gifts: Sharpie Marker Mugs from Somerset Lane. "I have seen similar ideas several times on Pinterest but Bette explained it so simply that even an amateur DIY Crafter like myself, could get this right and worthy of gifting to friends and family."
