A Life In Review

Today is my due date, so clearly I wrote this piece earlier in the year but… Here you will find the best Christmas movies, TV show Episode, Songs etc of all time. They are the top rated Christmas things that should be added to your list of things to do/watch/listen to/eat this holiday season. It may seem like I’ve just run out of ideas and I’m giving you another list, but this was actually really fun to research and write (I threw in some random facts too because they were too fun to skip). These are not my own opinions I found these facts on the good ole internet. I’ll save my opinions for another day (you’re welcome).

If you couldn’t get enough of this post, don’t worry because a Christmas Fact post will be heading your way next year. I loved writing this one and there were so many other facts that I wanted to add, but I know the purpose of this post was to give you the “best of Christmas” so those will be tucked away until next year! Have a wonderful holiday season my friends!
