One of my favorite parts of the holiday season has to be Christmas movies. I love to curl up on the couch and watch my favorites by the light of our tree while eating freshly baked sugar cookies. Although we don't usually get to watch all of my favorites each year, this year I'm determined to watch each of them by Christmas day.
The Santa Clause and The Santa Clause 2
It had been years since I'd seen these movies until I had to play them while subbing at a high school a few years ago. I had forgotten how much I love these movies, and now stop to watch them everytime I see them on TV. I've never seen the 3rd one, is it any good?
Love Actually
I just love movies where all of the characters interconnect like in this one.
It's such a cute story, I can't wait to watch it this year.
Elf
I actually didn't really like this movie too much the first time I saw it; however, every time I watch it, I love it a little more. It makes me laugh, and I think the whole story is just so sweet. I've since decided, it's pretty impossible not to adore Buddy the elf!
The Holiday
I love that this charming romantic comedy can also help get me in the holiday spirit.
Home Alone
My entire extended family went to see this movie on Thanksgiving when it came out in theaters. I still remember waiting in line outside. I continue to enjoy this movie, and love that all of my kiddos at school know it so well. I was younger than them when this movie came out, so it cracks me up that they all have seen it.
Christmas Vacation
Christmas Vacation is without a doubt my favorite Christmas movie of all time. I don't remember a Christmas when I haven't seen this movie, and it's definitely the only movie that I can almost completely quote. I can be also be known to use phrases from this movie like, "I don't know Margo" year round.
I haven't watched a single Christmas movie so far this holiday season, but plan to definitely get started this weekend! What are you favorite holiday movies?

My favorite is also Christmas Vacation! I can't wait to start watching these movies again!
We are doing the same thing! I love Christmas movies and am determined to watch my favorite ones by Christmas. We didn't do it last year and I felt a little disappointed. On Sunday night we watched Home Alone, so I've got one to check off! I've seen Santa Claus & bits and pieces of the other 2. I've never seen Love Actually! Home Alone & Christmas Vacation are my favorites!
Oh I just love all of these movies!
I gotta say I always watch White Christmas with Bing Crosby. And Bing is my Christmas soundtrack too! I grew up with Bing. He's like my grandpa :)
That's so funny - your dad and I say "I don't know Margo" all the time... I'd actually forgotten it came from that movie! (for some reason I thought it was a Steve Martin quote, haha).
