We are incredibly busy here at Furniture From The Barn… All of our Christmas orders are being shipped out this week and we have our company holiday party this Thursday..  
Woosshh so much going on!  
Putting all the craziness aside there’s one pastime dedicated to this time of year that everybody here at FFTB “makes time” for— watching Christmas movies! There’s nothing like finishing up chores as the day is dwindling to a close, heading inside, and warming up near the woodstove in front of the television while being serenaded by Bing Crosby and George Clooney’s aunt (know which movie I’m talking about?!?)

Here is some of our crew and their favorite flicks —

Mike didn’t necessarily pick “The Christmas Card” as his favorite but he watches it at least 4 times a week… we don’t understand either  
And mother hen Kelly Kelly loves to watch the true Christmas story “The Nativity”

We hope we inspired you to go watch a Christmas movie tonight and be merry! From all of us here at Furniture From The Barn Merry Christmas and remember the reason for the season
