Library Haul #16

This is my Christmas book/movie haul. I will be doing two more hauls this month and then I will start back up in January. The last two weeks of this month will be 3 days long and so there is no point on getting library books when I have a stash of Christmas books here at home. So, ON WITH THE HAUL>>>>>>

1. A Christmas Story

I should dislike this movie because every year growing up, my mom would have us watch A Christmas Story marathon all day every Christmas eve night and day. I haven't watched it in a few years, and I really want to. My fave is the bunny suit.

2. Christmas Vacation

It's a classic and it my 2nd favorite Christmas movie!

3. It's A Wonderful Life

The last time I watched this movie, it was my freshman year of high school. Cayce has never seen it. I know, shocker there. I have to sit him down with some caramel popcorn and hot chocolate.

4. A Christmas Carol

I have never seen this version of this story. The girls watched this on Tuesday as part of their school and Samantha called Scrooge "the crazy man". I busted out laughing. I like the real life version more than this one, but Jim Carey killed it.

5. The Lorax

The kids LOVE the movie, but they need to hear the book version. All Dr. Seuss books are genius. In a way, I don't like the fact that they made film adaptions of the books. The Cat in the Hat was a big fail and it turned me away from the book when I enjoyed it growing up. Now The Lorax and How the Grinch Stole Christmas... YESS!!! Amazing how they brought those to life.

6. How the Grinch Stole Christmas

As I said, all Dr. Seuss books are my favorite but this one is in my top 3. My mom loves the cartoon version and always watched it. She loves the Grinch just as much as she loves the Christmas story and I think that's more than she loves me and my brother.... dead serious!

7. How the Grinch Stole Christmas

My #1 favorite Christmas movie of all time. Jim Carey is the best Grinch and it is so hilarious! Now, if they did a 24 hour marathon of this movie, I would be a happy girl!! Sadly, I do not own this movie and have to watch it as much as I can before next Monday. It is already being requested and held for other people. Anyways, I LOVE MAX!

8. Cowboy Up

Non Christmas related... this book is for Ariana. I have a list of 100 books for every Kindergarten student to read.

9. Great Day for Up

Another Dr. Seuss book. I was really on a Dr. Seuss crave. One of Sammy's favorite books is written by Dr. Seuss and that makes me VERY happy.

10. How Do Dinosaurs Say Good Night

I have never read this book. But it looks good and funny.

11. I Stink

My kids have some nasty farts and burps and they fart and burp more than a little girl should. But I was the same way growing up with my friends. I thought they would love this because I could relate it to them, and it looks like the dump truck could be from Cars.

That's this weeks haul. If you like any of these movies and/or books, leave a comment and talk to me.
