    A totally new Christmas story
    A new take on a Christmas story. It's not all marshmellows, but instead, it follows a normal game with normal problems with one, the matriarch trying to hold it together. It's fun, funny, heatwarming, and a new addition to the Christmas Movie lineup.

    It's not your typical Lifetime movie, it's much better.
