The Obviously True Story of an Ugly Tradition

It's the most wonderful time of the year!

Time for Susanna's Holiday Contest!

Glad this weather hasn't hit us yet!

I wasn't sure if I was going to be entering this year because I just couldn't think of any ideas that I liked enough to write about. My muse apparently went on a little winter vacation. (I know that's true actually because I have been in a writing FUNK lately. Eesh!)

The creativity bug hit me hard yesterday and not a whole lot of other things on my to do list got done. And it was wonderful!

The contest rules:

1. Write a Children's Story
2. The weather must impact the holidays
3. Less than 350 words

And that's it! Post something between now and December 12th at 11:59 P.M. EST and you can enter the contest too! Check out Susanna's blog for all the rules and prize information.

On to the story clocking in at 345 words:
