Countdown to Christmas: My list of must-see movies
I’ve held out as long as I’ve could. The season of Christmas is my favorite time of year. Besides, the sights and smells, I also love to watch Christmas movies. I have my favorites, but I’m a sucker for any movie that comes on TV and has a Christmas theme. Last night my husband and […]
