ADOLPH HITLER REALLY LOVED CHRISTMAS

Adolph Hitler really loved Christmas

That much is perfectly clear

He loved the sleigh and the team

But Blitzen was his favourite reindeer?

My mum has a terrible problem

“Please get help” I implore her

Because she suffers from OCD

Obsessive Christmas Disorder

THE BEST CHRISTMAS MOVIES EVER – MY FIRST CHRISTMAS (2015)

 

Angelica (Katya Martín), is a 16-year-old girl who's battling a rare kind of cancer called Myelodysplastic Syndrome, and it will claim her life if she doesn’t get a bone marrow transplant and on top of her struggles to try to live a normal life is the very real prospect of never finding a donor match, but higher on her priority list are her hopes of finding her first true love before it's too late.

But then she meets homeless teenager Sean (Juan Castano).

A heart-warming film in which the acting is only surpassed by the Cinematography, well worth a watch.

WE MET AT THE CHRISTMAS PARTY

We met at the Christmas party

And I instantly fell in love with you

The prettiest girl in the room by far

Dressed in shades of Christmas hue

And when I heard your joyous laugh

The blissful love in my heart grew

And though we had never spoken

Nonetheless I somehow knew

That for every Christmas to come

In my future I'd still be loving you

So, I look back, with you in my arms

As my Christmas prediction came true

THE BEST CHRISTMAS MOVIES EVER – BETHLEHEM RANCH (2018)

 

Bethlehem Ranch is the story of an elderly rancher called Chap (Steve J. Young) who grapples with the loss of his wife and the loneliness that accompanies it.

This is exacerbated because his daughter Laura (Tara Reid) is a Lawyer who lives and works in New York which allows him to isolate himself from his friends and neighbours.

That is until his estranged foster child Jessica (Andrea Logan White) re-enters his life with her two children, Spenser and Cassidy (Graham Schneider and Taylor Bedford), after leaving her abusive partner Eddie (Alexander Kane).

Though not initially welcome Chap has to concede to them staying until the New Year following a fall and this time facilitates the rekindling of an old romance between Jessica and old flame Tyler (Randy Wayne) and for Cassidy to get into her Grandpa’s heart, giving him a new purpose to live and so Rancher, foster family and the town come together for a wonderful Christmas.

HOLLY DEAREST

 

Icicles hang from the gutters

All on the landscape is still

Ice crystals pattern the glass

Snow stands deep on the sill

Curtains drawn against the dark

As a fire roars in the hearth

While my darling lays in my arms

And love burns hot in my heart
