The Evans family is finally hosting Christmas and, like with every family, things get crazy. From in-laws drinking too much egg-nog to a sister flying in from Los Angeles, a struggling author and her husband cannot think of a better place to be. Memories and cheer and Yuletide carols are all in store in this short novella about family, love, and Christmas.

Song List:

1. "Run, Run Rudolph" by Chuck Berry

❝Run, run Rudolph, Randolph ain't too far behind
Run, run Rudolph, Santa's got to make it to town
Santa make him hurry, tell him he can take the freeway down
Run, run Rudolph 'cause I'm reelin' like a merry-go-round❞

2. "Home for the Holidays" by Perry Como

❝Oh, there's no place like home for the holidays
'Cause no matter how far away you roam
If you wanna to be happy in a million ways
For the holidays you can't beat home sweet home!❞

3. "Let it Snow!" by Dean Martin

❝And the fire is slowly dying
And, my dear, we're still good-bye-ing
But as long as you love me so
Let it snow, let it snow, and snow❞

4. "Do They Know It's Christmas Time?" by Band Aid

❝And the Christmas bells that ring there
Are the clanging chimes of doom
Well tonight thank God it's them instead of you
And there won't be snow in Africa this Christmastime
The greatest gift they'll get this year is life
Oh, where nothing ever grows, no rain or rivers flow
Do they know it's Christmastime at all?❞
