What a week this has been. There's nothing quite like Christmas - to put everything into perspective. If only we could all escape to an idyllic holiday world or time travel together past war, famines, and pandemics. It's been heartbreaking to watch the news in Haiti with the earthquake and storm, and then the terrible news coming out of Afghanistan; my prayers are continually being lifted up to the Americans still trapped there. Even when I turn off the news for awhile, my heart is still heavy for those who are suffering and those in fear for their lives. This world needs the love of Jesus; that's why I'm going to keep on praising His name and sharing that incredible love with others.

That's one of the reasons why I love the Christmas movies so much. Even though they may not always share the true meaning, I still get the message loud and clear: "Joy to the World, The Lord has come!" Let us pray together that others will one day know that miraculous joy!

Blessings to you all, Net

I hope you all have some time to enjoy the Christmas movies airing this week! Both movies are family-friendly and star some of Hallmark's favorite actors - Lacey Chabert ("Crossword Mysteries," "Christmas Waltz"), Stephen Huszar ("Ruby Herring Mysteries," "A Homecoming for the Holidays"), Erin Cahill ("The Secret Ingredient"), and Ryan Paevey ("Christmas at the Plaza").

If you haven't seen these two Christmas movies, yet, you can check out these reviews from followers here...



MOVIE REVIEWS - "Time for Us to Come Home for Christmas"

🎄"I thought the Come Home for Christmas one was very boring. No chemistry between the leads and the side stories not compelling to me." Misty

🎄"Time for Us to Come Home for Christmas. Keeper!! Will probably buy the dvd. Family friendly." ~~Jane

🎄"Time For Us To Come Home For Christmas - We're slowly working our way through this year's Christmas movies and saved this one for Christmas night - proved to be a good choice. Absolutely loved it - Lacey Chabert and Stephen Huszar were a winning combination a la Jill Wagner and Wes Brown or Nikki Deloach and Michael Rady, they fit together so well. The main plot was quite intriguing although I did guess who had sent the invitations to the inn (the title was a big clue) - there were a number of sub-plots but unlike as in Write Before Christmas they did not detract from the main theme but were cleverly woven in giving Chabert and Huszar plenty of screen time. Every one of the secondary cast gave excellent performances too. Obviously being a Christmas movie certain dynamics had to be observed but these were refreshing and did not come over as cliched. If Lacey Chabert was brilliant then Stephen Huszar was sensational - I've always liked him in The Ruby Herring Mysteries ( Memo to Hallmark more of these PLEASE!) but he was a revelation here with all his subtle little face gestures. In the ending after Sarah had initially sais she was returning to Seattle the look of bland desolation on Ben's face was amazing then when she decided that he was an integral part of her future he closed and opened his eyes as if thanking God and the look of almost disbelief yet happiness was unbelievable. The tenderness with which he led Sarah back into the inn teared me right up. There was slightly more time given to the ending than normal for Hallmark but even so it did come over as slightly rushed and in fact not everything was resolved. There had been a couple of references that the inn had been struggling in the months prior to Christmas and there was nothing to suggest how this was going to change? Sarah herself didn't know what the future would hold but the inference was that she would take over her mother's law practice. This was in New York - could she work from the inn? There was a reference to being a train ride from Hartford so presumably it was somewhere in Connecticut so maybe this was possible. One quibble with Hallmark not just for this movie but right across the board - please treat your viewers with respect. It is perfectly obvious that most of the time they are drinking all this coffee and hot chocolate from empty cups! Now they wouldn't be expected to fill them with champagne but why not water? We've still a way to go to finish seeing all the Christmas movies but this is in the lead as our favourite to date ahead of the 12 Dates Of Christmas. A really lovely movie - in fact despite the number still to see we rewatched this on Sunday night! Were there Hallmark Oscars then this along with Chabert and Huszar would be firm favourites to win this year!" ~Anonymous



MOVIE REVIEWS - "A Timeless Christmas"

🎄"I didn't care for A Timeless Christmas. I just didn't buy it. Candace's was better to me." ~ Misty

🎄"A Timeless Christmas. I thought this one was okay, it was kind of sweet, but it really didn't win me over (not a keeper for my dvr). I love historical period dramas but my logical brain has a hard time wrapping itself around any kind of time travel story. I've liked Ryan and Erin in other movies, but don't think this was the best fit for either of them. Family friendly. ~~Jane

🎄"I LOVED A Timeless Christmas. Easily my favorite that I've seen so far. I'm a big fan of time travel stories and found this one to be a whole lot of fun and very sweet. I thought Ryan and Erin had great chemistry, and Ryan definitely fit the part of a dashing gentleman from 1903. I enjoyed every minute of the movie and didn't want it to end. I'll be watching it again." ~ Amy Lama

🎄"I watched Timeless Christmas this weekend and did enjoy it a lot. In so many movies I thought it was covid for not feeling a connection with the main characters and their feelings for each other, but in Timeless Christmas, Ryan Paevey and Erin Cahill had such a great connection on screen, I felt a connection to them so quickly, and that was filmed after covid, so the other movies I wasn't feeling the love must not have been due to covid. I want to see Erin & Ryan in more movies together. The movie was funny and witty, and I was so excited to see how it ended (I did not ever read the book)." ~ Sabrina

🎄Exactly! Ryan was perfect as the gentleman from the past. Great family friendly movie, with a fresh storyline. Great chemistry between him and Erin as well. ~ Savvy Girl

🎄"A Timeless Christmas - Ryan and Erin worked well together. A couple moments that didn't work but overall I liked it and will watch it again." ~ Kay

🎄"A Timeless Christmas. Thoroughly enjoyed this. Very difficult theme to tackle but I think they did this well overall despite a few obvious errors (well this is Hallmark and you do have to suspend some belief!) Ryan Paevey fitted into his role comfortably and he and Erin worked well together. My major disappointment was that some people saw fit to reveal the ending before the film aired (and surprisingly Ms Cahill was one of these). From the beginning I was intrigued to see how it would end and unfortunately knowing in advance did take a lot of enjoyment away although in retrospect there probably wasn't any other satisfactory finish. However, still one of the more enjoyable Christmas movies of 2020 to date." ~rubcale

🎄“A Timeless Christmas was quite intriguing, but it was one of those movies that left me wanting more. I loved seeing the already handsome Ryan Paevey dressed-up as the stylish Charles Whitley from 1903, with his old fashioned ascot tie and long suit coat; it reminded me instantly of Mr. Darcy from the Jane Austen movies. That was enough to draw my interest as the story began, and then I was captivated with the mystery of how and why Charles arrived from the past in to 2020. It was fascinating to watch as Charles acclimated himself to the technology of 2020 and all of the changes in the world since the early 1900's. In the end, when Charles made his decision between the future and the past (I'm not saying here which way he chose), I felt rather sorry for the people he left. The time travel genre can sometimes be a tough story to sell. Some viewers like it a lot, and others, I've discovered, don’t like it at all. Ryan Paevey and Erin Cahill, however, were excellent together and overall, it was an engaging, original Hallmark movie for those who love historic tales, with a modern twist. The story is family friendly, one I would watch again... a timeless love story!” ~Net

This weekend I'm really looking forward to seeing "A Timeless Christmas!" I have always been fond of period dramas, like Jane Austen movies or Little Women and Little Men, so this movie looks quite fascinating to me. It has a familiar storyline to Candace Cameron Bure's "Journey Back to Christmas," where she, too,  travels from the past and into the future unexpectedly. We'll have to see if Ryan Paevey's character returns to the past or stays in the future with Erin Cahill!
