Aloha Friday: Christmas Movies

It’s time for another Aloha Friday, the day that you take it easy and look forward to the weekend, in Hawaii and blogland anyway. As you should know by now, over at An Island Life, Kailani decided that on Fridays she would take it easy on posting and ask a simple question for you to answer. Nothing that requires a lengthy response.

If you’d like to participate, just post your own question on your blog and leave your link at An Island Life’s blog. Don’t forget to visit the other participants! It’s a great way to make new bloggy friends!

So I decided that it would be fun to rent a couple Christmas-themed movies every week and watch them on Friday nights, as a cheesy way to celebrate the season and also to expand my repertoire of Christmas movies – Each week I’m planning to rent one aimed for kids to watch with my son and another more grown up movie to watch with dh. So my question this week is:

What’s your favorite Christmas movie?

    Miracle on 34th Street (the original) and White Christmas are hands down my favorite Christmas movies.

    My son loves Rudolph, Charlie Brown and Polar Express.

    Hands down, the Grinch – the classic. But to my dismay, it scares the liver out of my daughter. boo hoo hoo.

    Definitely Love Actually. It isn’t a “family friendly” flick but my husband and I watch it every year while we wrap gifts. LOVE Hugh Grant and Colin Firth!!

    I don’t really have a favorite, but my boys love to watch all the Charlie Brown holiday specials. I also like Elf, Jingle All the Way, and the one’s with Tim Allen. I can’t even remember the titles.

    So many to choose from! It’s really not Christmas without “It’s A Wonderful Life” and “The Grinch Who Stole Christmas”.

    My favorite has to be the Muppet Christmas Carol. Something about it just makes me feel like it’s christmas time! I can’t help smiling, laughing, and singing along.
