Christmas Movies and Netflix Giveaway!

I love watching certain movies at the holidays.  In my family it became a tradition to watch A Christmas Story on Christmas Eve every year.  That was solidified when a certain cable channel started playing it non-stop for 24 hours several years ago.  It did not matter if it was the scene where he sticks his tongue on the frozen pole or the one where the dad opens the ever-awesome leg lamp, we were laughing – together.

One of my favorite movies to watch at Christmas is Love Actually.  Tim loves White Christmas and the kids love any of the Santa Claus movies with Tim Allen. Miracle on 34th Street is also a family favorite.  I like the old version but we tend to watch the newer one more often.  The kids watched in on Friday night (okay I did too) and I just love the part when the little girl says, “I’m going to bed uncharacteristically early.” So precious. and I also love that the entire movie evokes the magic of Santa Claus and the joy he brings to children (and adults).

When I was a kid we watched Rudolph and Charlie Brown Christmas and Frosty the Snowman.  The abominable snow monster still freaks me out a little.

The kids also watched Curious George – A Very Monkey Christmas last weekend and even though it’s geared toward younger kids,  B watched some of it too.  George is just such a cutie.

Of course sometimes this happens while watching… 😉

There are SO many holiday movies streaming on Netflix right now that you and your family can enjoy, curled up on the couch with a cup of hot cocoa and some popcorn (my favorite way to watch movies).
