    All our decorations went up today also and we always watch Aladdin at christmas, despite it not being directly relevant to the holiday. Another favourite is The Santa Clause 🙂

    We haven’t put up decorations yet, apart from advent calendars, but we usually do around the 15th. I really love How The Grinch Stole Christmas as I’ve watched it every year probably since it came out! 😀

        I’ve only ever seen the Jim Carrey on and it makes me want to live in Whoville!

    This year has gone by soooo fast! I had all last week off of school for Thanksgiving, and I watched so many fabulous Hallmark Christmas movies! My favorite one is A Princess for Christmas. I also love fast Christmas songs!

      OMG a Princess for Christmas is AMAZING!!! I just got done watching it and I watch it all the time, (even in the summer) since it came out! I love almost all of the Hallmark Christmas movies. They’ve been my life since Halloween when they started showing them!

    Our family always watches It’s a Wonderful Life and Miracle on 34th Street. I love listening to all Christmas music and playing it on the piano.

    I have signed up for the ally ambassadors several times and I’m still not receiving any emails… Has anyone else been having these difficulties?? Is it because I don’t have a tumblr?

    Hi Shellie and Ally!! I hope you both have a very happy holiday season! What’s your favorite Christmas movie? My family watches How the Grinch Stole Christmas (cartoon), The Year Without a Santa Clause (I’ve watched it from the time I was very little and I still love it!), It’s a Wonderful Life, and many others!! Right now my choir is getting ready for our holiday concert with some great Christmas songs, including a song from Frozen!

    My mom made us put the Christmas tree on the Friday after Thanksgiving and then on Saturday we put up all the lights and ordiments. Then me and my dad made a little town like we do every year. I love watching the classic Christmas movies like the Year without a Santa Clause, How the Grinch Stole Christmas, Frosty the Snowmanm, Rudolph, and some of the abc family movies! I also listen to all the classic music and also the some of the different artist who do covers of those songs! I just love this holiday! I am the best at present giving especially sentimental gifts!

    Hey!!! OMG I’m SOOO excited for Christmas!!! I put up all my decorations Sunday and yesterday, the first, I decorated my church. One of my favorite Christmas movies is “Elf” but I LOVE LOVE LOVE watching Hallmark Christmas movies during the holiday season. My favorite songs to listen to for Christmas is Jingle Bell Rock, The First Noel, Carol of the Bells, Sleigh Ride, and many, many more. I hope you and your family has an AMAZING Christmas and thanks for everything I know you do!!!

    My favorite Christmas movie is the Grinch and Elf! My favorite music is We Three Kings and Let It Go! Also, I put up my tree!! Most of the ornaments got knocked off by my cat. Does anyone have any tips on how to keep your cats away from the tree?!
