I love Christmas movies. My favorites include: White Christmas, Miracle on 34th Street (the original one), A Christmas Carol and It's a Wonderful Life. My all time least favorite is: A Christmas Story. The leg lamp, the tongue stuck to the pole outside, and shooting his eye with a bb gun all do nothing for me. But....since Thanksgiving evening....(I did wait til after the turkey was put away and everyone had gone home)....I have been glued to cheesy Christmas movies. I am addicted to the Hallmark Channel for sure. November Christmas, a Hallmark presentation from last week was a heart wrencher and I loved every moment of it and cried my eyes out. Yep...the cheesier they are the more I seem to want to see them....or at least that is what Frank says. He watched football all weekend...and I watched the Hallmark Channel. I cannot help the fact that I love those feel good movies. I love saving Santaville, meeting the Christmas stranger that is the ghost of someone's son, engagement stories, finding a dad for Christmas, finding a mom, finding a dog....oh yes...Hollywood is obviously aware that I (and I am sure millions of others) are out there...waiting for a sappy, sad/happy movie about the Christmas holidays. I have always been that way. When my daughter Kat was little she and I loved to watch Christmas shows....from Rudolph when she was very small to White Christmas....where else can you get movies for a brief period of the year...that are not about murder, sex, and foul language....no wonder I like them. I know some of you are just like me. I would like nothing better than to stay cuddled in bed from say...Black Friday until Christmas Day....with it snowing outside....while I watch cheesy Christmas movies. NOW....I don't think they are cheesy but Frank sings a little song to me to the tune of Don Ho's Tiny Bubbles....it goes like this.....Cheesy Movies on my tv.....I have to laugh. It is funny because Frank is a big sap when it comes to tear jerker movies. So, let me ask you a question.....leave me your answer in my comment section. What is your favorite Christmas movie?....and why? Have a Happy Day!
