my (american christmas movie marathon) day off.

13 Dec 2011

there is only one thing on my mind today… cheesy, american christmas movies sent to me from my dad in the states! these are the movies i remember watching with my family growing up. and it is just not christmas for this little american girl living in sweden without watching them. so, today, i’m hanging out in the corner of my sofa, under a blanket, with the sounds and sights of sweet, hopeful, cheesy christmas movies all around me (complete with real american commercials from about 10 years ago – my dad recorded these movies from tv then. hehe.). gonna be a cozy, cozy day. the almost perfect day off. just wish my love was home with me. but, i’ll make it a cozy, christmas-y evening with her tonight. just need to see some snow falling outside. but, it’s coming. one day soon, i hope!


pics from the 1986 movie, “the christmas gift” with john denver. a small colorado town, christmas legends, letters to santa, snow, music, a christmas pageant, nature, sledding, unexpected miracles… so american. so cheesy & so perfectly indulging. love it!

happy tuesday! peace.
