My top 3 favorite comedy movies

3. Dumb and Dumber- This movie made me fall in love with Jim Carrey. But this movie wouldn’t have been as funny without Jeff Daniels. (Lloyds best friend Harry) Dumb and Dumber was written and directed by the Farrelly brothers. This is one of my favorite scenes in the movie.  


2. Waterboy-  Adam Sandler is hilarious in this movie. I love the concept of this movie, a “loser” gets revenge on the people who treated him so poorly. I’d have to say that this scene is my favorite.



1. Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy-  This is my all time favorite comedy movie. I can watch this movie everyday and still laugh at the stupidity of Will Ferrell.  I am very excited for the sequel coming out in 2013.  This is my favorite scene from this movie.

My top 3 favorite Christmas songs

My top 3 favorite Christmas songs:
I know that we haven’t even celebrated Thanksgiving yet, but for some reason I am super excited for Christmas this year. First comes the cold weather and then comes the Holliday music. I hope I can spread a little early Christmas spirit!  

3. The Grinch Theme song
This song was originally written and composed for the 1966 cartoon special How the Grinch Stole Christmas! The lyrics were written by Theodor "Dr. Seuss" Geisel, the music was composed by Albert Hague, and the song was performed by Thurl Ravenscroft. I love the movie, but especially love the theme song!


 2.  'Let it Snow! Let it Snow! Let it Snow!' By: Dean Martin
Since we don’t get a ton of snow in the Gaston County area I use this song as a type of “rain dance” but obviously for snow! The song was written by Sammy Cahn and Jule Styne in 1945 on one of the hottest July days recorded in Hollywood. The love tune never once mentions Christmas albeit the seasonal lyrics and holiday ambiance.


1.       'Have a Holly Jolly Christmas' By: Burl Ives
This song is my all-time favorite. It always puts me in a great mood and helps me through the hectic times during the Holliday season. This Christmas song was written by American songwriter Johnny Marks, who wrote other contemporary Christmas hits such as 'Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer,' 'I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day' and 'Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree.'
