Christmas Eve in July

Tomorrow, my friend Maggie is hosting a Christmas in July blog party. Click on the link to the right for more details. I can't wait to blog hop to all the bloggers who are participating in the fun. I am hoping to get a lot of Christmas ideas, recipes, and just hear about traditions in general. Usually on Christmas Eve we are partying with family and then when everyone leaves, we will watch a Christmas movie. Here are my top five Christmas movies.

5. A Christmas Story

My family goes crazy for this movie. I can just hear my dad laughing out loud at this scene! I also love how it comes on 24/7 on Christmas Day. There are so many good parts it was hard to choose. But I picked the famous tongue-stick scene. Enjoy!

4. While You Were Sleeping

It is too a Christmas movie!! Everything happens during Christmas! This is really on my top 5 of any old movie, too. I love Sandra Bullock and I love this movie!

3. Elf

I heart Buddy the Elf! Who gets this excited? Nobody anymore, I tell ya! I love his enthusiasm over Christmas and Santa. I also love how his boss thinks he's crazy!

2. The Family Stone

This is a newer movie and it's up high on my list because I haven't seen it 500 times and I really enjoy watching it. I love how dysfunctional this family is! They have so many problems yet in the end they show each other the love that was always there. I adore the sister, Amy, yet hope I have never treated any of my brother's girlfriends the way that she does. eek!

1. Miracle on 34th Street

This has always been my favorite Christmas movie. I only watch it on Christmas and I think that I enjoy it more every year. Kylie likes the newer version and it's okay but nothing can take the place of the old Miracle on 34th Street with Natalie Wood!

I still have Christmas in Connecticut on my list of movies to watch for the first time. My mom begs me every Christmas to watch it with her and I always fall asleep in the first 30 minutes. I just know that I will love it if I ever find the perfect moment to sit down and give in.

Merry Christmas Eve in July. I just can't wait until tomorrow!!
