Oh Elf...

I absolutely love the movie Elf. I will watch it any day of the year, but make a habit of watching it as often as I can throughout the Christmas season... Its on TV right now as I'm catching up on emails etc. so I'm watching the last hour and I just feel compelled to share just a few of the reasons I love this movie.

1. While it doesn't exactly point to Christ- I do feel like it reminds us of more of what Christmas SHOULD be about.

2. "Baby its cold outside" I absolutely LOVE this song & don't remember really loving it that much before this movie.

3. Just as smiling is Buddy's favorite- laughing is mine and this movie CRACKS me up.

4. I am always reminded of why I live by the standards I do when it comes to guys when Buddy takes Jovie on a date... I want that- someone who sees life with fresh eyes and realizes each moment is an adventure. :) Love it.

5. Its just so stinking quotable!!

6. Its family friendly. :)

... and so many more. Oh buddy the elf, how I love you.
