My *Quick* Take:

Yay! SEVEN more NEW Christmas Movies to add to our must-watch list! (Please know - I have not previously viewed these films; always check ratings before viewing with your family.)

I am delighted to see Laura Bell Bundy return for a new UP Christmas movie this year! She was absolutely adorable in UP's "Season's Greetings" last year! (however, "Season's Greetings" does have two instances of language- so, please beware of that! Minus that, I loved it!) And, I sure hope I enjoy her new one, too! It looks like fun and with a bakery theme... delicious! Also stars Brendon Zub, who you may recognize as a co-star from Hallmark's "Hearts of Christmas" or "Sleigh Bells Ring," etc...!

Fans of the drama series "Ties that Bind" will be so happy to see Kelli Williams and Jonathan Scarfe star in "Christmas Solo" together. They are also familiar to Hallmark fans - Kellie having starred in "A Boyfriend for Christmas" and Jonathan Scarfe "Angel of Christmas"!

"Signed, Sealed, Delivered" fans are sure to recognize Ramon, actor Zak Santiago, in "Christmas Princess"! Plus, Greyston Holt from "The Christmas Secret" and more!!!

I hope we will all enjoy what's coming UP - on UP - this Christmas!!!

Blessings!!! Net
