Hello friends! Happy September and Labor Day Weekend to You All!
Hopefully, this weekend will offer you a little time to unwind from the normal day-to-day work and activities and give you the opportunity to relax and enjoy the non-official last weekend of Summer!
Our weather is heating up again here in the Midwest, so I'm going to be spending some time outdoors with my family and soaking up the gorgeous sunshine!
As you, hopefully, enjoy some peaceful downtime this Labor Day, here are some of the notable TV specials, new movies, marathons, and more airing on this 3-Day holiday weekend...

Even though Labor Day weekend is usually considered the last hurrah of Summer, technically, Summer doesn't officially end this year until September 23rd. So... whether you're trying to soak up the rest of Summer as long as you can or you're ready to transition into Fall, September is the perfect time to do both!
For many years, the Hallmark Channel used to do their Summer Movie Countdown on Labor Day weekend, but now they start off the month immediately with their first *Fall Into Love* movie. Since Christmas movies begin at the end of next month, YES, NEXT MONTH, that leaves little, but just the right amount of time for Fall movies.
Are you ready for Fall-themed movies to start this weekend? And... the BIGGER QUESTION... are YOU READY for CHRISTMAS MOVIES to begin NEXT MONTH, near the end of OCTOBER??? Please share in comments below.
Please note: I have not 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 comments.
Take care, everyone, and Happy Labor Day weekend!
Blessings!
