Sophia is laid back to the point of paralysis and cannot seem to assemble the basics of life, including a healthy work/life balance and evolved relationships. When Sophia tells her twin she’s had to cancel her Christmas vacation to stay in San Diego to work, Kaelynn jumps at the chance to flee the frost of Ohio to take her sister’s place. With her sister’s kids with their dad for Christmas, Sophia believes her only job will be to watch holiday movies by the fire. Kaelynn feels confident her demanding day-to-day has prepared her for Sophia’s grinchy boss and flaky friends. Then, reality sets in!

I’m planning to watch/record all the new Christmas movies above. I was going to choose three favorites, but seriously, I just couldn't narrow it down. Here are my thoughts on all the new ones this weekend...
🎄Gingerbread Miracle on the Hallmark Channel-
Hope it's just as sweet as the poster looks! Love the gingerbread theme!
🎄The Great Christmas Switch on GAC Family -
Love a fun twin switch places story, a la the classic, "The Parent Trap!"
🎄Christmas With A Prince: The Royal Baby on UPtv -
It's the third movie in the series - can't wait to see the adorable royal baby!
🎄Next Stop, Christmas on the Hallmark Channel -
This movie has a "Back to the Future" mini reunion with a time travel story - I'm so there!
🎄A Christmas Treasure on the Hallmark Channel -
This story centered around a historic time capsule sounds intriguing and captivating. Perhaps, it will also involve a little mystery, too, along with Jordin Sparks beautiful singing!
🎄Debbie Macomber’s A Mrs. Miracle Christmas on Hallmark Movies & Mysteries -
It's delightful to see the continuation of the "Mrs. Miracle" series! This one looks emotional and comical, too! While I'm looking forward to this, I do wish they could've played one of the original "Mrs. Miracle" movies with the incredible, Doris Roberts, to honor her memory before this new premiere. She was a wonderful first Mrs. Miracle, and I will always treasure her in that role. I am curious to see how they will carry on the series with this new movie. Will there be any link or mention of the original? I sure hope so!
Would love to know your thoughts, too, on the new movies in comments below.
*Please know- I have NOT pre-screened these NEW Christmas movies listed above. If you happen to watch one of the new Christmas movies this week and want to share whether or not it is a family friendly movie, please stop back by and leave a comment. I know everyone here would be grateful to know any information you are willing to share.
