Great thread and title

Thank you. I tried something new and put Christmas colors in the writing in the OP.

Very festive

They had a whole Christmas village of this movie for sale once. Light up buildings and figurines. I wanted it so bad. I haven't seen them in stores for a while though. Maybe they were discontinued?

**Melis** · 12-16-2017, 05:41 PM

Might have been. Never saw one, though.

Did anybody watch the live musical? I caught bits and pieces of it and I didn't care for it much. I had a hard time getting into it.

**Melis** · 12-18-2017, 05:25 PM

I didn't bother.

It was getting savaged across the internet. It looked good though.

Too bad it wasn't.

Matt and I watched it and loved it.

It's always a winner.

Colleen and I watched it. We both loved it. Cried a few times and it was just so fun. The music was outstanding, the acting/dancing was impressive.

I am glad you enjoyed it.

I was riding around looking at Christmas lights last night and I saw two leg lamps!

I am watching this tonight.
