5 Amazing TV Christmas Movies You Should Check Out

With Thanksgiving approaching us faster than ever, and radio stations getting in gear for non-stop Christmas music, I can't help but get excited for the upcoming holiday season a.k.a. my favorite time of year. Like many, ABC Family/Freeform's "25 Days of Christmas" marathon is always something I look forward to each and every year. For those of you crazy people who don't know what that is, the "25 Days of Christmas" marathon comprises of non-stop Christmas-related tv shows and movies leading up to the actual day of Christmas (accompanied in the mix are the Harry Potter movies...which is still something that perplexes me each and every year).

During the month of December, after "successfully" accomplishing each daunting day of school, I usually reward myself by sitting down and watching some Christmas-related movie whether it's on TV or on demand right before I go to sleep. Whether it's the classic clay animation movies like "A Year Without a Santa Claus" or more modern, cheesier ABC Family generated movies like "Christmas Cupid," I look forward to watching Christmas inspired movies each and every day.

I remember watching this movie back in 2007 when it first aired. Even though the plot is a tad cheesy and somewhat unrealistic, it is undeniably one of my favorite holiday movies to watch every year.

2. The Polar Express

This is probably a fan favorite for many people. There's something so cute and mysterious about this movie that really draws me to it. I love the whole concept to it and I think it's without a doubt a holiday staple from the past decade.

3. Santa Baby

This is another ABC Family original movie, however, unlike many other original movies, this one got a sequel which is equally as entertaining. I think the concept of Santa having a daughter is something that you don't really find in many holiday movies. This one is wittingly clever and hands down one of my favorites.

4. Elf

Definitely one of the more overrated Christmas movies, but I can't help loving it. Although, through the years, the movie has somewhat lost it's charm, it's still one that I must watch every year or the holiday season will be incomplete.

5. Snowglobe

This is another ABC Family original movie and the concept is very imaginative. It focuses on a girl who receives a magical snow globe in the mail and each night she wakes up inside the snow globe in a town that is fixated on celebrating Christmas every single day. It's definitely one of my favorite Christmas movies out there.

Honorable mentions: Christmas With The Kranks and The Santa Clause movies.

So, if you're like me, and you find pure joy out of watching different Christmas movies every day leading up to the holiday, then hopefully you'll check out the 5 movies I've featured above. You will not regret watching any single one of them!

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
