Evergreen is beautiful! A perfect Christmas town! Would have loved to see Ryan and Zoe and more Ashley Williams.

This was a sweet and heart warming Christmas movie. However, I had to stop thinking of it as a companion movie to Christmas in Evergreen because there were to many things that didn't make sense. For example, the store Lisa was trying to help didn't seem to exist in the first movie nor its owner. Also said owner was said to have taken over the Christmas celebration from Henry's mom but in the first movie they said it was the first year Allie wasn't doing it and it was a different character that took over. Despite that, Jill Wagner was excellent and I'm greatful this was a movie where it made genuine sense as to why she was returning to Evergreen after so many years away.

The original Christmas in Evergreen was excellent. It's become one of my favorite Christmas movies. This sequel, however, just didn't cut it. To eliminate Teddy Sears and minimize Ashley Williams was just wrong. Their acting made the first movie. I was excited to watch this movie, but it was a huge letdown. Don't care to watch again.
