Christmas Flicks

One of our family traditions is watching holiday movies; our girls grew up watching the Little House on the Prairie Christmas special.  Each year we would sit together as a family and enjoy this classic as well as Miracle on 34th Street.  Many would not consider Little House a classic, but for our family it was. Each year hubby and I try to add a couple of videos to our collection, for the grands.  This year I had heard about these two movies and we got them for a bargain; both families watched Santa Paws and thought it was such a cute movie.

Our oldest daughter's family watched the video below and of course loved it. Our youngest daughter and sil choose not to watch it because her hubby travels internationally so much and they didn't want their young girls worrying about someone burglarizing their home. 
If you are looking for some lighthearted Christmas movies, gives these a try-but you may want to preview The Dog Who Saved Christmas before letting young ones watch it.
Have a wonderful day!
Hugs, Noreen

  1. I, too, love the Miracle on 34th Street, we watch that every year. Is the Little House one of their Christmasy episodes, or is it a special 'movie'; each one of their Christmas shows was lovely. I loved Little House, and still do, and I cry at every episode! I also love 'The Homecoming' which was the precursor to The Waltons. I've always loved Patricia Neal, and this movie is so charming.

    Have a wonderful Christmas!

  8. Hi Noreen,
    Nice to hear from you today, and glad you could come by and that you enjoyed my decorations. Have to say I had fun doing this room since it was different this year, it usually is decorated it traditional Christmas colors..........

    Hubby and I adore Christmas movies too. We just watched a remake of miracle of 34th street last week, and it was great! We have one now called Christmas Lodge, so can't wait to watch it. Did you ever see the Christmas cottage, it is about the life of Thomas Kincaide. We just happened on it, but really liked it. Thanks for the suggestions we will have to try them. We really like Polar express too, it is so cute..........and has a message as well.

    Hope you have the Merriest of Christmas's ever and May the Lord bless and bless you in the New year sweetie, you and yours!

  10. These movies look like such fun! I was just telling my husband that typically we see LOTS of good Christmas movies on T.V. this time of year and I haven't seen any yet (except for "It's A Wonderful Life")
    We don't have cable or dish, just antennae T.V. - but my husband's favorite Christmas movie is the old black & white Scrooge. I think we're going to watch that on Hulu or Youtube. :)
    Blessings and joy and fun to you for Christmas!
