I should probably turn the TV back on for the month.

It's not there much anymore with DVRs, DVDs, etc. Though we still try to create it by getting everything ready before we sit down with the lights off, popcorn and drinks nearby, to watch our favorites (The Santa Clause 2, The Grinch, etc).<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the trip down memory lane.Melaniehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15885535675842229329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8197179663823770853.post-60825581008027006252008-12-02T04:57:00.000-06:002008-12-02T04:57:00.000-06:00Yes, our movie collection keeps growing each year. If you ever come to Arizona they have an actual train called the Polar Express. My friend went last week and I was so jealous. They sell out almost a year in advance!<BR/><BR/>http://www.thetrain.com/polarexpress/Jeanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15508193299869892535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8197179663823770853.post-21713705774079801162008-12-02T01:15:00.000-06:002008-12-02T01:15:00.000-06:00Great suggestions! I remember doing much the same thing when I was a kid. Usually, we'd do the same thing here and try to catch these shows when they come on but this year we don't have tv service. So we'll be going to the library next week to see what kinds of Christmas movies we can find. ;)Amberhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02395906581830016475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8197179663823770853.post-14561424118344594282008-12-01T19:22:00.000-06:002008-12-01T19:22:00.000-06:00I already DVR'd tonights specials.<BR/><BR/>I missed Charlie Brown Christmas, I think.

I love watching these Christmas movies with commercial breaks and all. Granted we have Frosty and Rudolph on DVD and watch them daily there is plenty I don't have on DVD like The Polar Express.Red Lotus Mamahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18403062472345174564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8197179663823770853.post-66676664581984442482008-12-01T14:49:00.000-06:002008-12-01T14:49:00.000-06:00My husband LOVES Christmas specials.
