As we enter into our first holiday season as a family of four, it’s important that we start new family traditions and include Adlavie in the ones we have done for years! One of my favorite family traditions that we do every year is our annual holiday movie night. Every year, we deck the house out in our favorite Christmas decorations, put on our comfiest pajamas, set up a snack table, and simply just enjoy quality time together as a family. While I know baby girl probably won’t make it through the whole movie, at least she can hang out with us for a little bit this year. Ben and I went to our local Sam’s Club for all of the holiday movie night essentials including Haagen-Dazs® Vanilla Milk Chocolate Almond Bars. The 15 pack from Sam's Club is so big and perfect for the Holidays when all of your family is around! Keep reading to plan the perfect holiday movie night!

MOVIES

With any movie night comes the debacle over what movie to watch. This can be a tricky task because there’s always multiple opinions thrown around at once. I’ve found that the best way to choose a movie is to give Aimery two choices and he picks the one he wants us to watch! I love letting him choose the movie because it helps to keep him engaged and interested. This year we’ve gathered some of our favorite movies, including:

  • How The Grinch Stole Christmas

  • Trolls Holiday

  • Home Alone

  • The Polar Express

  • Elf

PAJAMAS

We love getting matching pajamas for the holidays and wearing them for our movie nights! It’s so fun to have different pairs from over the years and picking out new pairs every year. Aimery loves to choose which ones we will wear every year for our movie night!

SNACK SPREAD

For our annual holiday movie nights, we usually set up a fun spread of goodies! We love to head to the store together and pick up Aimery’s favorite popcorn, pretzels, cookies, candy, and ice cream. This year, our annual holiday movie night spread is made extra special with the help of Haagen-Dazs Vanilla Milk Chocolate Almond Bars! According to Aimery and I, Ice cream is never out of season - who says you can’t eat ice cream in the winter? It’s always a great treat!

Haagen-Dazs Vanilla Milk Chocolate Almond Bars are made with sweet vanilla that is blended with fresh cream - so yummy! They are even gluten free and kosher. We love these bars because they are individually wrapped for an easier grab and go option. You can find Haagen-Dazs Vanilla Milk Chocolate Almond Bars at your local Sam’s Club, both online for pickup and in-store! Aimery and Ben have been eating these so much lately, that I knew I needed to include them in this year’s holiday movie night. Find them online here!
