When Jen's Uncle Ralph, a retired officer comes to visit for Christmas, he brings along new friends, a nomad and Jack-of-All trades named Morgen Derby. The two met on a flight and Morgan's plans to continue on to Denver are canceled when he finds out the city is completely snowed in. Jen is wary of the stranger, but at Ralph's request, agrees to let him stay the night. She warms up to Morgan, especially when she sees how he interacts with Brian. Uncle Ralph approves of Morgan but Jen's boyfriend Richard isn't nearly as receptive.

Meanwhile, Morgan has started to really like Jen, but if she can't manage to make Christmas about anything more than n business, Morgan will be on his way to Denver and she'll have missed the opportunity that was right in front of her. Uncle Ralph has done what he can to keep Morgan around, but it's going to take something more than that to get him penciled into Jen's long-term plans. Jen just needs to learn "how to do Christmas", and it turns out Morgan is the perfect one to teach her.

Dove Review

Here is a comical and cute holiday romance for the family. Henry Winkler is wonderful as the endearing Uncle Ralph and Warren Christie is great as the the handsome Morgan. Together these two bring the Christmas season to life for the audience along with Jen and her son Brian. You will laugh at the tactics that Uncle Ralph goes to, to keep Morgan at Jen’s for Christmas.

Truly a fun and heartwarming Christmas movie for the entire family, this movie is Dove “Family-Approved”.
