Christmas Movie Bucket List

I mentioned a few days ago that I've been more into watching movies lately, and the last few years I've really been into watching as many Christmas movies as possible. I came up with a bucket list of Christmas movies I want to see.

Last night I watched Four Christmases.

I thought I had never seen it, but I did recognize the pregnancy test scene, so apparently I had, or at least some of it.

We watch Christmas Vacation every year, usually on Thanksgiving or the day after, and we did this year as well but I fell asleep through part of it so I kind of want the part I missed again.

Another one we watch almost every year is Elf. I love that one, but I don't necessarily need to see it again this year.

So, here is my list. Some of these I've never seen, some I have but don't remember them very well, and some I just want to see again.

The Holiday

The Family Stone

Jingle all the Way

Serendipity

While you Were Sleeping (I don't know why this isn't ever included with the Christmas movie genre. Same with Serendipity above)

The Santa Clause

Scrooged

Prancer

Transfer Anniversary

Today is the 5-year anniversary of my embryo transfer! 5 years ago today I became pregnant with my girls (I wrote about it in more detail a few years ago). It was a Saturday that year, also. Olivia and Kayley at 3 days post conception (wish I knew which one was which): And Olivia and Kayley 5 years later: That photo is actually a few weeks old. I tried to take one for today and this is what I ended up with: {Sigh}

The Girls' Room

So it's kids' rooms this week at Kelly's Korner Home Tours. Unfortunately, we haven't finished the girls' room make-over. We recently transitioned from toddler beds to twins. I would have loved to get bunk beds to save space, but the twin beds were given to us by friends of Paul's parents so we're making do. They were wood-colored (oak, maybe?) so we painted them white. It was challenging to figure out how to arrange their furniture because of the alcove/nook thingie on one side. I couldn't do the obvious two beds perpedicular to the wall with a nightstand in between configuration, so I had to compromise. There are lots of finishing touches still to be done. We need to replace their dresser, get a nightstand, put up a shelf (ledge) or two and some wall art, and curtains. We're also going to paint. I've had my heart set on purple for a long time, which is why I chose this bedding with some purple but not too much, but now...

Senior Prom

Last Friday was the girls' Senior Prom. A whole group of them met at a nearby park for photos, then they broke off into smaller groups and went to dinner and Prom. Olivia and her group rented an Air B&B for the night, and Kayley spent the night at a friend's house with another friend or two. Olivia and Gavin (just friends) Everyone Just the guys Just the girls Olivia and Kayley
