🎄 2021 Christmas Binge Watch Movie #20 🎄 

This felt like an old school Hallmark movie. Lady has a job she likes, is successful, but doesn't spend much time with the family. Once she volunteers to help out grandma with the block party everybody hates her ideas and efficiency. Like how dare she, but everybody then does what she suggests without ever saying I guess that was a good idea. That said, I did like a lot of what this movie had to offer. Olivia Washington lite up the screen. Tina Lifford was fantastic, and all the family elements were definitely the best part of this movie. The romance was okay, there was enough chemistry there. It's cute.  

My Review: ⭐⭐
