As soon as the Christmas season hits I get out the holiday movies. Good, cheesy or otherwise there is something great about Christmas movies, especially the classics. This year we have a new addition to our lineup. We got a compilation of Christmas specials which includes (among other things) the original Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer, Frosty the Snowman, and Frosty Returns.
It had been years since I had watched most of them, which makes it even more fun. I think my favorite thing about re-watching all of these is that it is the first time that Henry has seen any of them. It’s been fun to watch him discover the absurd comedy for the first time, and to see him laugh at things like the elf’s desire to become a dentist. We still have to watch Frosty and Frosty returns, but this weekend’s feature film is an all time favorite; The Muppet Christmas Carol. If you haven’t seen it I strongly suggest you rent, buy, borrow or otherwise get a copy of it within the next two weeks. There is just something about Muppets reciting Dickens that makes it feel more like Christmas.
I couldnt agree more with you! I hope you guys will maybe be in PA for christmas? Maybe I already asked you that...and if i did you probably answered but I dont remember.... have fun watching those :)
