My sister and I lo-o-o-ove that movie and made it a habit to watch it every year. And when busier schedules the last few years often prevented me from seeing the televised version, I went and bought my own copy. Last year, the dynamic duo got right into the "Sisters" song and even performed it for my parents and I this year.
So, when I realized that THAT was the missing piece, I grabbed the kids and we plunked ourselves down on the couch and watched the whole thing together.
Ahhh. Merry Christmas, all!
And if you need a little trip down that memory lane, here's the link...

Apparently there was an all day marathon of White Christmas on Christmas Eve but we never even had the TV on that day....
I missed watching it with you!
"Sisters... sisters...."
I LOVE White Christmas and have already seen it 3 times this year -its such a classic , that and Its a Wonderful Life ... Looks like a very Merry Christmas at the Thompson house ...I love the picture of your Mom and Dad with the candles !!!
Lianne, It's my favourite too! I watched it Christmas Eve waiting for Matt to get home form work so we could hit the road for Toronto and NOTL....it was on AMC back to back all day on Christmas Eve!

I shared your blog with my sister -- this movie has huge tradtion with her family -- it's one of about 5 that MUST be watched over the holidays.
She could relate to the ache in your heart for the simpler times.
Glad you own your own copy.
