There are so many things about Christmas it's hard to choose just one to love the most. Is it the presents? Is it cuddling up under a fire? Is it everyone's individual Christmas traditions playing out year after year? Is it the music?
I think all of those things have their moments, but to me, the best part of the Christmas season is definitely the Christmas movies.
Or at least as many as we can fit in! There's Christmas Vacation, Rudolph, Frosty the Snowman, Love Actually, A Christmas Story, A Wonderful Life, A Charlie Brown Christmas... The list just goes on and on!
Maybe we notice something new about a character we've never considered before, or maybe we hear a new funny line that went over our heads as kids, or maybe, just maybe we realize that one beloved Christmas film shares an actor with another beloved Christmas film.
That last realization has happened for fans this year watching Elf.
Peter plays Ming the elf in the Will Ferrell classic, and fans (and me!) are just realizing that now!
It feels almost silly to not have realized it before now — after all, you'd think we'd recognize those big baby blues anywhere!
I'm going to be watching Elf tonight with a whole new appreciation for this role!
