Warmest wishes to you all... on this first weekend of the new year!
I pray it will be peaceful for all of you who visit here.
AccuWeather is reporting a "Colossal winter storm to unleash snow, ice, severe weather from the Plains to the mid-Atlantic"! Over a dozen states and millions of Americans may be impacted. Are you one of them? Over the weekend, we are potentially expecting 6 inches of snow here in the Midwest! So, we are preparing for this event with groceries, water, batteries, phones charged, blankets, generators ready, etc... I'm just hoping we will keep our electricity, especially since we are expecting severe cold temperatures, as well. Be safe, everyone, this weekend if you are also in this region in the U.S.
Since the weather outside is certainly going to be frightful for many, it will be a good time to stay indoors and, perhaps, enjoy a new movie, the first episode of When Calls the Heart Season 12, and Christmas movie classics all weekend long!
See all of the details below...

In addition to the new premieres and Christmas movies this weekend, Hallmark Family has a 4-movie-marathon on Sunday of "Signed, Sealed, Delivered" classic movies from 1pm/12c. to 9pm/8c.
I'm going to try to squeeze in as many Christmas movies as I can over the weekend (if we have power, due to the winter storm) and record many, too! My Christmas tree is still up and shining bright; I like to absorb as much Christmas as I can before we reluctantly decide to take it down.
