Snowcoming

Have you ever went home for a special school event?

Snowcoming! Don’t you just love that title? Snowball…love that too! Wasn’t this such a cute, delightful movie?

Samantha returns home for her father’s retirement party. Her dad is the high school coach. When she returns to town, she runs into Jake, her old high-school flame. Jake is a famous football player now and he’s also friends with Samantha’s dad. He’s bunking at Samantha’s dad’s house, and being so close to him puts Samantha into a tizzy!

Hard for her to admit that she still has feelings for him. I thought Jake was cute and sincere! He’s sorry for the way he’s treated Samantha in the past, and he wants to make a fresh start. But, Samantha is leery. Jake will be gone soon, back to his life of football fame, won’t he?

Didn’t you just love that tree house? I loved seeing that structure and could imagine curling up with someone in that big tree house.

Although I enjoyed the scenes in the library, where Samantha acts as a mentor to the teenager who likes to read, I thought it was a bit far-fetched. Are there any public libraries that still allow folks to sign out books with those cards in the back? It appeared that library still used the Dewey Decimal System, too? Also, the teenager (the female that Samantha mentored), well…I’d imagine that a teenager, especially nowadays, would have no problem finding books, especially with the internet and Kindle and…I don’t know. I felt that the teen was clueless about getting books online. I felt that the teenager was in a bit of a time warp? What do you think?

That reporter kept getting on my nerves – the one that kept asking Jake all of those nosy questions. I wanted her off the set real quick. I couldn’t stand her.

I thought the romance between Samantha’s dad and the librarian was sweet and cute!

I noticed that Samantha’s best friend, the one who was pregnant, was a minority. Her husband was White. That was the first time I ever recall Hallmark having a mixed couple on one of their movies. I loved that they opened up and did that! I enjoyed seeing them interact with one another and it was super sweet that she was having a baby!


So, have you ever returned home for a school event, like Homecoming (Snowcoming)?
