This is an excellent family film! The heartwarming story catches your interest immediately as this family who has everything begins to lose what they THINK is important. They are forced to look at each other with new eyes and new surroundings, and in the process are blessed with a love and spirit of giving that out-weighs all that they lost! The acting is superb! Kevin Sizemore's portrayal of David George is wonderful, as is the performance of Claudia Esposito, who plays his wife. This couple tries desperately to hold things together as their life falls apart and I feel their pain. The family's teen-age children are such typical self-involved teens. Barrett Carnahan, who plays Nick is a handsome, extraordinary actor with a bright future, for sure. Beautiful Emily Capehart (Natalie) added an endearing humor to the film. Seasoned actor, Terry Kiser, gives an excellent performance as the man who opens this family's eyes to the true spirit of giving. What a great actor! This is a beautiful story, written in such a superb way that has you laughing, then crying, then cheering the family on. It's a story that all families would enjoy and be blessed by. The perfect Christmas movie!
