Winter Movies

Hello and happy Saturday!

Well, while the temps have turned colder these past couple of weeks, we’re still waiting for the pretty white stuff to fall…and stick…for a snow day!

Today, I’m sharing some of my favorite winter movies…maybe by doing so, Mother Nature will get the hint!

Of course during Christmas break, I have a bit more time, and I always want to watch some Christmas movies.

Every year, as a family, we watch:

• Home Alone
• A Christmas Story
• This year we also watched National Lampoon Christmas Vacation.

Bonus is when I find time to watch other Christmas movies too…like…

• The Holiday
• Love Actually
• The Family Stone

I do feel like January and February are slower months for us, so I try to watch a few other faves. It’s nice to have some extra time on the weekend or an unexpected day off to watch some of my (our) favorites.

Some of my favorite “winter” movies are:

• Serendipity (fun fact: This was the first movie Travis and I ever saw in a movie theater together…back in 2001.)
• While You Were Sleeping (I watch this movie often, but Hadley watched it with me first the first time Christmas break 2022 and liked it.)
• Sleepless in Seattle (Hadley and I watched it over break this year…and she said it’s her new favorite.)
• Cool Runnings (This is a favorite from my childhood that I loved watching with my kids too.)
• The Mighty Ducks (same memories/thoughts as Cool Runnings)
• The Cutting Edge (I remember watching this one so often with my brother…He still will randomly say, “toe pick!”)
• Little Women (classic!)
• Frozen (Oh how I miss when Hadley was obsessed with all things Frozen)
• You’ve Got Mail (Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan do no wrong in my book!)
• Groundhog Day

What are some of your favorite winter movies?
