Top Christmas Films for the Family
Christmas is right around the corner. Get yourself in the holiday spirit by making a delicious cup of hot cocoa, get those slippers or cozy socks on, and curl up with your favorite blanket to watch your favorite Christmas movies. My favorite thing to get myself in the Christmas spirit is to wrap my Christmas gifts or do my holiday baking while watching my favorite Christmas movies. Basically, Christmas movies fill me with holiday cheer. I thought I would share my favorites, but I will be limiting it to the films I find are most family friendly.
