Over the weekend, my husband and I watched A Christmas For the Ages, which is available to stream from Great American Pure Flix starting November 26th.  It was a sweet Christmas movie in which the characters talked about similarities and differences of what Christmas was like in the 40s, 60s, 90s, and present day.  This movie was enjoyable and helped get us in the mood to start thinking about Christmas. It also brought up some bittersweet memories of our own grandparents and what Christmas could have been like for them.

Great American Pure Flix is my favorite streaming service to stream wonderful and uplifting Christmas movies.  I can’t wait to see what else they offer this year!
