THE BEST CHRISTMAS MOVIES EVER – ONCE UPON A CHRISTMAS MIRACLE (2018)

 

In this wonderful Christmas romance, based on an incredible true story, former Marine Christopher Dempsey (Brett Dalton) meets Heather Krueger (Aimee Teegarden) who has been diagnosed with stage 4 liver disease and requires a transplant.

However, getting a match is proving difficult so her friends and family are encouraged to get tested and although Chris fits in neither category he also puts himself forward, and he is a perfect match and agreed to donate part of his liver to save Heather.

After Dempsey’s selfless act, they fell in love and were married two years later.

TWAS THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS # 6

 

Twas the night before Christmas and all thru the castle

Not a soul was stirring not even the rascal

And the reason for all the silence within

Was an over indulgence of wine and gin

CHRISTMAS SCENE

 

Snow blankets the ground

Lights twinkle and flash and chase

Reds, blues, white

From Chimney pot

To garden gate

Lights of every hue

And a five foot plastic Winnie the Pooh

Santa’s, elves and reindeer

Stand guard on front lawns

Neon signs point the way for Santa

A typical scene now you might think

Could be anywhere in the world

The only thing to give away the location

Is the fact it’s still November

So welcome to

Christmas in Chav land

WATCH OUT

 

Watch out, watch out

There’s a lech about

He’s stalked you all year long

Amidst the office throng

Watch out for Mr. Ross

Your lecherous boss

Who’s been waiting all year long

With a desire so strong

Watch out, watch out

There’s a lech about

Who wants to hold you in embrace

And kiss your pretty face

Watch out for Mr. Ross

Your lecherous boss

As he looks at you all agog

Intent upon a snog

So when old Mr. Ross

Your lecherous boss

Grabs you under the mistletoe

Just tell him where to go

THE BEST CHRISTMAS MOVIES EVER – A CHRISTMAS BRIDE (2019)

 

Hotel manager Willow Petersen (Rachael Leigh Cook) returns to her stunning Virginia hometown to help her sister Juni (Christie Burke) plan a Christmas wedding at the Inn her family once owned.

However, to achieve her goal she must work with the resistant current owner and single dad David Lyndon (Benjamin Ayres), who just wants to let go of the past and sell the Inn following the death of his wife.

She does have a very valuable ally in the form of his young daughter Natalie (Lina Renna) who loves the Inn.

This is a delightful film in a delightful setting with stunning cinematography.

HE SLEEPS A KINGLY SLEEP

 

Oh prince of peace

Humbly lain on hay

Born to the world

On this special day

 

Shepherds, beasts

And kings of earth

Pay homage

At the saviours birth

 

While the Christ child

With angelic face

Sleeps a kingly sleep

In this humble place

I COULD BE YOUR CHRISTMAS TREE

 

I could be your Christmas tree,

Strung with tinsel and lit, brightly

You can trim me with ribbons and bows

Baubles and bells anything goes

I shall be greeted with gasps and wows

And you can hide gifts beneath my boughs

You won’t regret it if you buy me

So let me be your Christmas tree
