I sure hope you all enjoy all 5 of these new movies this weekend. Please know - I have not previewed these films, so do check ratings before viewing with your family!

May you all have a relaxing, peaceful weekend... my dear movie friends!

The news we have all seen come out of our TVs, from Texas this week, has certainly been heartbreaking. Words fail me now as to how to express my sorrow for those I don't know, but who were fellow believers and Americans. I have watched the news this week and turned back and forth to our Hallmark movies... all the while my heart, thoughts, and prayers continue to reach all the way to Texas - to a small town and those precious people who live there. I pray His light will shine through the darkness.

We learn from this... to "love our neighbor as ourselves" and cherish each moment with family and friends.... while finding simple sweet joys in the little things, even a fun new Christmas movie on a Saturday or Sunday night.

Blessings to you all, Net

I wish you all the fruits of God's spirit...

Love, Joy, Peace, Patience, Kindness, and Goodness!
