MICKEY’S MAGICAL CHRISTMAS: SNOWED IN AT THE HOUSE OF MOUSE
6:48 PM Posted by Bits from a Brit
Our family loves all the Mickey Mouse Movies, and this one is sure to be a hit for Christmas. I love it when movies help to reinforce the values that we try to teach our children. Christmas is not just about gifts, but also about being together with family and friends.
We asked our Daughter yesterday what she was thankful for and until we talked to her at length about it the response was less than pleasing. I wish there were more shows like this to help us with the lessons that we need our children to learn.
A great movie to get you and your family in the Christmas Spirit.

Being a superstar as well as a normal teenager is getting even more complicated for Miley Stewart (Miley Cyrus).

Far away from the bright lights and the big city, Miley reconnects with childhood friend Travis (Lucas Till).
Their budding romance, along with the love of her family and friends, gives Miley some much- needed perspective on life.
