🎄 'Twas the Last Full Weekend Before Christmas!!! 🌟 See Christmas Movies and More... Details Here:

Happy weekend before Christmas, my friends! I'm holding on tight now to all of these precious last days 'til Christmas. It's a cloudy day with small snowflakes gently falling here in the Midwest, so I'm writing up this post by the warm light of our Christmas tree. A few packages wait below the tree to be unwrapped on Christmas day (as I still have more to wrap!), and space is always left for Santa in front of our fireplace, where the stockings are hung, of course, with care.

While there are still more new Christmas movies to come next week, this weekend is the last significant drop of new ones. A couple days ago, I tried to erase a few I've watched on my DVR and make room for more. Some are easier to delete than others, but I made a little room, and I'm trying really hard not to think too much about the new movies coming soon in the new year. I try to keep my focus on Christmas as long as possible and think of those movies as far off into the distance, so to speak. But alas, the new year and January movies are only a couple of weeks away. Even still, I'm keeping my heart and mind in the present on Christmas day!

See all of the NEW Christmas movies premiering this weekend and more below...

The Night Before The Night Before Christmas

MOVIE REVIEW

The Night Before The Night Before Christmas

Network: Hallmark Channel Original Christmas Movie

Original Air Date: November 20, 2010

CAST:

Jennifer Beals ... Angela Fox
Rick Roberts ... Wayne Fox
Rebecca Williams ... Hannah
Gage Munroe ... Toby

PLOT:

from the Hallmark Channel-

Holiday Themed Movie for Hallmark during Christmas-time.

The whimsical tale of a family trying to save the annual tradition...

Angela Fox and her husband, Wayne, together with their children, Hannah and Toby, find themselves on December 23 without a tree, presents or Christmas spirit. Like too many modern families, they have grown apart, too busy with their individual lives and schedules to spend time together, even on the holidays. All of this is about to change when, due to elf error, Santa sets out on the night before Christmas Eve and crashes on the roof of the Fox home. Santa’s sleigh is disabled, his magic gift bag is missing, and even worse, he has amnesia!

Will Christmas be lost or can the Fox family come together and save Christmas and, in the process, their holiday traditions?

With Santa's journey around the world in jeopardy of being cancelled, Toby, who still believes in the magic of Christmas, begs this family to get in the holiday spirit to help jog Santa's memory. As the fate of the holiday rests in their hands, the Foxes must work together to get Santa, and their family, back on track.
