Telling My Teens about Christmas in the 80s

December 4, 2022 By Katy

“Feeeeed the woooooorld. Let them know it’s Christmas time!” I sing a song from Christmas in the 80s in the car. Out of the corner of my eye, I see my teenage daughter look at me. She is unimpressed. “Why is that even a Christmas song?” she asks. She has a good point. Amidst all [Read More]

Forget Christmas, I Want A Hallmark Movie Winter

December 6, 2021 By Katy

It’s that time of year again. Hallmark’s Countdown to Christmas. Wait. Isn’t it ALWAYS that time of year on the Hallmark channel?

Whew! That was a busy month. I know that for most of us, December can be both a joy and a giant hassle (sorry, not sorry, Christmas). Our family chucks in 2 out of 4 birthdays in December, too. Which has made me really good at throwing birthday parties during the holidays. It has also [Read More]

Christmas Movies That Aren’t Really Christmas Movies

December 17, 2018 By Katy

Enjoy these Christmas movies that aren't really Christmas movies!

It’s time to talk about my favorite Christmas movies that aren’t really Christmas movies. What do I mean by that?
