Home for the Holidays: Movies You Love!

My fiance and I have a list of 9 Christmas movies we watch in the days leading up to Christmas! Home Alone (1 & 2), Elf, The Grinch, and Polar Express are a few that I can remember off the top of my head.

I looooooooooooove Elf. I watch it so much every year, it's on my hubby's "Do not play" list. Which The Grinch movie? Never seen Polar Express--I'll put that on our watch list. Thanks for sharing.

View Quoted Comment That's hilarious! Elf has always been one of our favorite holiday movies, we usually end up watching it multiple times throughout the season. We originally had the animated Grinch movie and also the one with Jim Carrey both on the list, but we ended up only watching the Jim Carrey version last year. We spend a couple days around Thanksgiving planning out the list of movies, the order we'll watch the movies in, and on what days, so I'm hoping we'll watch both versions of The Grinch this year. My first time watching Polar Express was a few years ago, and I think it's a cute movie! Enjoy!

We just watched Hitched for the Holidays, which is the trope of two people pretending to be a couple to get through the holidays. It has some plot holes as they all do, but it had me and my husband laughing so hard.

View Quoted Comment I remember the cartoon The Grinch but never saw the Jim Carrey one. Noted! I’ll add that one too.


Omg, I can recite some of the Elf lines. And last year was a totally Elf Christmas. All the gifts had to be wrapped in the Elf paper. And I framed some of the quotes as decor.

View Quoted Comment I found some of my Elf pics from last year:

View Quoted Comment Oooh, I might have to see that! My hubby & I watched Holidate a few weeks ago—similar plot, pretty cute.

Ended up watching The Lost Husband this weekend on Netflix. Will prob watch Netflix movies or see what's on redbox! Love the movie n champagne idea, perfect cozy date night 😍

View Quoted Comment I love these!!!

View Quoted Comment Haven’t seen that one yet. And we have Netflix!

View Quoted Comment It's so good!

View Quoted Comment Thank you!!!! I printed the signs (free), stuck them in $1 frames from the Dollar Store. The candy cane decor was on sale 50% off at Michael’s, maybe $6? I also got elf paper garland, separated, and customized with our faces:

View Quoted Comment Oh my gosh, those are awesome!! Where did you find the Elf ornaments? Sounds like you got a great deal on everything, and you can re-use it every year!

View Quoted Comment At Party City! Looks like they have them this year too. Crap, it won’t let me upload a pic.


There are also nicer ones at Michaels (wood? $1.99 each).
