Love’s Christmas Journey is the story of recently widowed Ellie King (Natalie Hall), who while still mourning the loss of her husband, travels to visit her brother Aaron Davis (Greg Vaughan) who is sheriff in the small town of Haddenton. Aaron has two small children, and Ellie takes care of the kids, reading stories to them, and trying to make friends and enjoy the holidays. When a young man is falsely blamed for burning down the mayor’s barn, Ellie steps in and defies the town and proclaims the boy innocent. Then Aaron turns up missing, and is nowhere to be found. Everyone is praying for a holiday miracle to resolve the problems and bring Aaron back home in time for Christmas Day.

This is a brand new Hallmark Christmas Special and is not available yet other than on TV. It’s a long film, 4 hours, done in two parts. It’s a great story of trust and values, and a really great western adventure. There’s a lot of action and excitement, and it’s a very good holiday tale.

This will no doubt be available next year, but if you get a chance to watch this one on TV this holiday season, keep an eye out for it. It’s a heartwarming tale. As the first holiday film of the year, it makes me look forward to the ones that will follow. What a good start to Christmas 2011.
