It's the LAST Weekend of August and the end of Summer movies on Great American Family and the Hallmark Channel. I can hardly believe next weekend is Labor Day weekend. Summertime always floats by so quickly.
See details below on the new Summer movies and an all-new When Calls the Heart + we're Counting Down to Christmas on Friday, August 25th! Come along for the ride, the sleigh ride!
Friday, August 25, 2023:
Happy 4 Months 'til Christmas!
We are *Marking the 25th* and Counting Down to Christmas! Can you believe there are only 4 months to go? Plus, we are under 2 months away from the Christmas movies airing on TV near the end of October!
The Hallmark Channel has an encore airing of My Southern Family Christmas airing Friday night, August 25th, at 8pm/7c. I may watch some of that; plus, in honor of the recent news on Daniel Lissing's Christmas movie (in case you missed it, *see here*), I will also watch Daniel's last Great American Family Christmas movie, Catering Christmas.
If you plan to watch something Christmassy on Friday or this weekend to celebrate this occasion, please share in the comments below.

Please note: I haven't pre-screened the new movies listed above. If you'd like to post a review on whether a film is family-friendly, please share in the comments below.
The Summer movies look equally good to me this weekend; the movie that most piques my interest, though, is 10 Steps to Love since the story takes place in a country setting in an apple orchard.
I've heard mixed reviews on Dream Wedding, but I'm a fan of Jesse Hutch, so I'll definitely be watching it, too!
When Calls the Heart looks especially sweet this Sunday night with a father-daughter camping trip, and I hope we'll learn Rosemary and Lee's baby's name.
Have a Blessed Weekend, Everyone!

☀️ SHINING HIS LIGHT ☀️
"I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing. If you do not remain in me, you are like a branch that is thrown away and withers; such branches are picked up, thrown into the fire and burned. If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you. This is to my Father’s glory, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be my disciples."
~John 15:5-8
