Blogmas Day 17!
Christmas movies are a staple for everyone. I am a sucker for a cheesy, happy-go-lucky Christmas movie… They get me every time. Naturally, I spend all of December (and maybe some... most… of November watching Christmas movies. Watching movies is a perfect way to spend time with the family, too. So, grab a hot chocolate and cozy up with your love ones with one of these fun Christmas movies.

After he learns of his true identity, he travels to a mystical place called New York City to find his biological father. It’s Buddy’s job to spread the Christmas cheer in a whole full of Scrooges.
