This Christmas

 
  
The Story: For the first time in four years, the entire Whitefield family is spending Christmas together.










Happy Holidays!! Christmas movies are the best. Not just because of all the feel good 'tis the season cheer they spread, but because I like watching families that are more dysfunctional than mine.

This Christmas is my all time favorite Christmas movie. The Whitfield family takes the cake on dysfunctional families. You've got a cat fight between sisters , an AWOL marine, cheating spouses, hidden spouses, the return of the prodigal son and the baby boy who no one takes seriously. If they can pull themselves together for the holidays, anyone can.

2 more reasons I love this movie :Loretta Devine is the Whitfield matriarch and she is fantastic. TC also  introduced me to Columbus Short and I love him.

This clip is one of my favorite scenes in the movies. This clip is adequately titled "Baby oil beat down". Pure genius.
