In Love At the Kettle (wt), up-and-coming singer-songwriter Bella Harlan (Alexa PenaVega) comes home for Christmas and enlists her high-school songwriting partner Jack Grayton (Carlos PenaVega) to craft a song to win back her rockstar boyfriend by Christmas. As the two reunite for the first time in a decade, they embark on a Christmas journey down memory lane, and soon realize true love may be closer than they thought. The heart of the movie centers on Jack’s role with The Salvation Army, and Bella soon finds herself inspired by his devotion and passion to a life of doing the most good.

I hope you enjoyed reading about what's to come on Great American Family!

I'm such a big fan of Alexa and Carlos; I just adore all of their movies together! This new one from Great American Family, Love At the Kettle, already has me very intrigued. Any storyline about giving to others in need, especially at Christmastime, always touches my heartstrings.

Plus, we learned Great American Christmas in July will begin on July 1st! At this time, no new movies for July have been announced, but there will be plenty of encore showings of past Great American Family holiday favorites. (Stay tuned - if there are any changes/updates here.)

Also, did you catch in the press release, Great American Christmas will begin sooner than ever before—on Friday, October 11th! Wow! We can start decorating even sooner this year for the holiday season, along with all of the Christmas movies we love!


Have a Merry Day!

  3. One of my favorite parts of the Christmas season is hearing the ringing of the Christmas bells alongside the Salvation Army Red Kettles. Hearing the volunteers ringing those bells outside of stores triggers wonderful memories of my past. There is just something so heavenly about that certain sound that they provide. I actually seek them out when I think they might be out and about. I go searching for the ringing of those bells. And of course, the reason those kettles are there is a wonderful effort.

    I sometimes walk at our local mall. The kettle bell ringers are on both sides of the mall. I LOVE walking inside with the Christmas trees and the Christmas music playing and as I approach both ends of that mall on my walk, I can hear and see the kettle bell ringers sounding through the doors and it just gives me the most joyful feeling inside.

    I was sooooo happy to see the October 11th start for GAF Christmas movies. I absolutely love the earlier start. Never too early for Christmas. For us Christmas fanatics, Christmas never ends and never starts. It just always is.

    1. Susan Ann, I feel the exact same way! I love her as an actress but have skipped the last 5 movies or so that she has done because they are all the same outdoor storyline. When she does other roles, like Hearts Down Under & Joy for Christmas, she is great. Iv watched those 2 multiple times.

  12. I like them, but I'd like to see them more with other people. Is there a reason that they are always acting together? Just curious if it's in their contract or something, it seems a little odd, but it might just be me.
