One of our favorite ways to spend time together and get into the spirit of Christmas is to watch Christmas movies during the holiday season. It’s a family tradition that we continue year after year.

We used to watch them on ABC Family. As soon as the schedule was released, I would notate the dates and times for each movie on our calendar, so we would not miss any of our favorites. About three years ago we got rid of cable and were good until Christmas rolled around and we could not watch our favorite Christmas movies.
I started purchasing a few DVDs each year, so we can continue our Christmas movie watching tradition. This way actually works better, because we can watch the movies anytime we want. We can also take them along as we travel during the holidays.
Our list contains lots of old, new, and remade family friendly Christmas movies.
