First of all, thanks for the wonderful comments concerning our family photos.  Y’all are too kind!  I loved reading about all the things you miss about warm weather – and the things you like about winter, too.  I for one miss being able to get out the door without spending an extra 15 minutes bundling up myself and the kiddos.  But I do love being holed up on cold nights by the fireplace with my family.  And now for this week’s giveaway winner…

Congratulations, Chase!  {That’s #20 if you can’t tell from the pics of random objects in my home.} Be on the lookout for an email from me regarding your Picnik Premium subscription.  And if you didn’t win, don’t be too disappointed.  Picnik offers a lot of photo editing tools for FREE. In fact, I used the basic tools for over a year before upgrading to my Premium account.  You can still resize, crop, brighten, change colors, add text, make basic collages and save edited photos to your computer.  Give it a try!  It’s an easy way to take your pictures from good to great.

Check in later today for more budget-friendly Christmas decor ideas.

FYI – I was not compensated in any way for this giveaway.  I just love sharing good stuff.  The winner was chosen via Random.org.
