Favorite Holiday Songs – Blogmas 2021 Day 8

Hi, My Beauties

Music fuels the soul. It can make you feel happy & sad at the same time.  It’s there when you fall in love and it’s there during a break up. It brings back memories of special occasions.. weddings, parties, and even funerals. So today, I will be sharing with you my  favorite songs I listen to during Christmas time.  I love listening to these songs when I’m decorating my house, relaxing with a glass of wine after a long day of work, and sometimes I even keep the music going while I’m watching Christmas movies on Netflix  (check out my list on Blogmas day 6).

Happy listening and I hope these songs bring you as much joy as they bring me.

Favorite Holiday Movies – Blogmas 2021 Day 6

Hi, My Beauties

Christmas is not complete without seeing all the wonderful Holiday movies out there.  

Here is a list of my all time favorite Holiday movies that I watch every year during this season.


A Miracle on 34th street with Dylan Mcdermott & Mara Wilson
. I really love this movie. It leaves a warm & fuzzy feeling in my soul.





The Best Man Holiday with Morris Chestnut & Nia Long
. I cry every time I watch.

 

 



The Preacher Wife with Whitney Houston & Denzel Washington
. I love the actors and soundtrack to this movie.

 



Elf with Will Ferrell.
This movie is so funny, I can watch this throughout the year.






The Family Man with Nicholas Cage
. Who doesn’t love a movie that shows you what life would have been like had you chosen a different route.




This Christmas with Idris Elba & Chris Brown.
My mom’s favorite movie. She loved the music and all the yummy men in it.

 

 


Home Alone 1 & 2 with Macaulay Culkin.
These movies inspired me go to New York to visit the Plaza Hotel and FAO Schwartz Toy Store.




Borrowed Hearts with Roma Downey & Eric McCormack. 
This is a must see if you are a cry baby like me. 

 


There’s my list! I hope you take some time this Holiday season to view all of these movies. You will not be disappointed. So grab yourself a cup of hot chocolate and snuggle up with a cozy blanket and enjoy. 

P.S.  Let’s not forgot that Hallmark, Lifetime, Netflix and Amazon Prime have a ton of new Christmas movies this year. 🙂

Until Next Time….Enjoy Life

What Christmas Means To Me – Blogmas 2021 Day 5

Hi, My Beauties

I would like to talk about what Christmas & the Holiday season means to me. Since my mom’s passing in 2014, it feels very different. Even though my mom wasn’t always in the Christmas spirit, she would always buy gifts for me, my sister and her grandchildren. I sure do miss her fussing. 🙂

I believe Christmas is about giving what you can spare and volunteering to help others. This year, I’m serving my community with some Holiday kindness by:

        • donating from my kitchen to a local food pantry
        • giving gift cards to strangers while out and about
        • putting together Christmas baskets to give away randomly

Love Bath & Body Works candles!

Outside of my service, I’m most excited about relaxing at home, listening to Christmas music and cooking my favorite meals. I still love a good ole Hallmark Christmas movie. Also, shopping for candles, decorations and gifts to cozy up my home.

What I love most about Christmas is creating happy memories to look back on and spending time with my loved ones. This Holiday season is going to be great because I believe it will be. Happiness is a choice and I choose to be happy enjoying life and being grateful for what I have.

What does Christmas mean to you, My Beauties?
