Our first official Christmas celebration starts tomorrow. I wrapped presents this afternoon as Zack wandered around the house humming the world’s saddest Christmas song, the “Christmas Time Is Here” song from Charlie Brown’s Christmas.

I realized today as he was humming that I’ve never actually seen the Charlie Brown Christmas Special. Seems like we should fix that this year. I’ll try to squeeze it in among my* other favorite Christmas movies such as, Home Alone, The Family Stone, Love Actually, and A Christmas Story.

What are your favorite Christmas songs and movies?

*Zack’s favorite Christmas movies are, and I quote, “A Christmas Story, National Lampoon’s, & Die Hard.”
