Your grandfather is a very special man.
You were the only one who truly
listened to what he had to say,
and he rewarded you with a
richer appreciation of the world.
Can I tell you something even sillier?
Of course.
Grandpa said that the Lord and
Grandma spoke to him every time
he went hiking. He found
such strength and peace,
and I actually thought
that they were speaking
to me the day that they put Charlene
and Christmas Lodge in my path.
And they were telling me
for everything he's given me.
Maybe they were, maybe they still are.
Grandpa after he got sick,
and he told me many times that
his illness was for a reason,
that God was trying to tell him
something. When I asked what, he told me
that he didn't know for sure, but that
throughout his life from the Great Depression
to fighting World War II, to working
on his dangerous construction sites
and most challenging of all,
the passing of your grandmother,
that God let him know
that he was there for him. He said many
times that he didn't tell him what to do,
but that his scriptures let him
lead the good life that he was
intended to lead, even
when he felt like giving up.
So you're saying that I should trust
in the Lord to give me strength,
even if it means putting
Grandpa in a home.
Your grandfather isn't
happy about this decision,
but he did tell your
father that he knows
it's best for him and the family.
Thanks Mom.
- That helps. Here, let me help you.
- Thank you.
This is where you rescued
me and Natty, remember?
Of course I remember. You know, that
was the most important day of my life?
Why?
God and my grandmother
talked to me that day.
Really? What did they say?
They said that I need to
spend more time here with them.
And that you were their messenger,
that you were their special gift.
I was?
You were, and still are.
Do you still think they're gonna
be done in time for Christmas?
Oh, you know only time will tell.
Is your grandpa gonna be there?
I don't think so Charlene.
Why not?
Well, he's you know,
from the stroke but it's
been really hard on him.
But you promised.
Well, I didn't really promise.
I just want a grandpa again.
Honey I know, I understand.
Believe me, I understand.
You know what, now we just, we just
have to pray for the best, right?
Yeah.
I have cookies! Grandpa, whoa!
Hey, how you doing?
Better than yesterday. It's almost
time for my physical therapy.
Whoa, physical therapy?
It's not as fun as it sounds.
Grandpa, I'm so proud of you.
You'd think I had won the Olympics.
Well, can I come with you?
Of course, of course
kid. The more the merrier.
I can't imagine a better coach.
Oh, you might regret saying that.
Comin' through!
You guys, it smells delicious!
It will be!
Oh, he's here!
Who's the movie star?
That's Jack.
Your new flame?
What is it with you two?
We go to dinner as friends,
can't a woman have a man as a friend?
No!
Behave.
Hey!
Charlene, hi.
This is my mom and
this is my sister Cathy.
Glad to meet you again Jack, Charlene!
Hi.
Mary and the boys have
told us so much about you,
you're already a part
of the family! Come in.
Thank you for welcoming
us into your home.
Come in, come in.
Where's your grandpa?
Oh, Charlene he couldn't make it.
Why not?
He's still not feeling
well, but he's working on it.
Can we go see him?
Oh, Charlene. Not today.
What about Christmas?
Let's talk about it later, okay?
We must watch the costs!
- Jack, glad you could make it.
- Good to be here.
- No, it was a nice ride.
Okay, everybody. Turkey's on,
come to the table!
Thank you for your help.
Smells good, mother.
Father, would you say Grace?
Heavenly father, thank you for the many
blessings you have given our family.
We are all eternally grateful for your
love, and the love of those who are here
and those who live with you in
heaven. I pray that you accept
in the way that celebrates the
We also pray that you help my father,
Mike Sr., who's long sewed as a beacon
of spiritual and moral
leadership to us all,
get better so that he
can once again join our
family table. Amen.
Amen.
And now, if you will pass me one of your
Christmas Lodge biscuits...
Well this is the best
Thanksgiving we've had in years.
I'm so glad.
in strays so effortlessly?
Well, they do if they like them.
Take a seat.
So, I have great news.
Your grandpa can make it for Christmas?
No, that would be excellent
news, this is just great news.
Okay, what is it?
I found a new location for the office.
Is it uh... a little bit
close to the lodge maybe?
It's...10 miles away.
That's great, Charlene
is gonna be thrilled.
Now what about places to stay,
you found a place to stay yet?
No, still looking.
You know, if um...
if we were married, you could
probably stay up at the lodge
Probably.
Jack, don't toy with me.
What if I'm not toying with you?
Look uh, I don't think that we
should be having this conversation,
maybe I'm just not ready.
I don't mean to upset you.
No, you're not upsetting me. I just...
I don't think that the timing is right.
I don't think that the
timing is right. Okay?
It's okay.
Care to do the honors?
This is your lodge son,
your past, your future.
Well none of this would've been
possible without your family's help.
Our family.
Without our family's help.
I wouldn't say that, you're
the one who kept things going.
Uh, Dad... Jack, I appreciate the
mutual fan club for each other,
but there are a lot
- Jack, please.
- I'd better go get the door.
No, no. Not until you
light this house up.
Okay, hands. Hands!
Three, two, one!
Lamb sake's alive, would
you look at this place!
Grandpa?
Grandpa you made it! You made it.
Yes.
You're here!
Grandpa?
Finally!
Who is this little angel?
That is my daughter Charlene.
- Who are you?
- Jack Rand.
Little Jackie?
My goodness, you are the
spitting image of your father
and your grandfather. I know
for a fact that they'd be proud
of what you and my boys
have done. Christmas Lodge.
Why, she looks like she did the
first Christmas that me and my Mavis
spent up here.
Well without your generosity none
of that would've been possible, Sir.
It's a drop in the bucket.
Oh, come on Grandpa,
we know that's not true.
Well excuse me, I have to
Charlene... Excuse me, sorry.
He's here! He's here!
Hey you guys! How you doing? You
wanna put the presents over there?
Good to see you. How did you get here?
Well, Dad, Morn and the rest
of us pooled our money together
Christmas gift for the whole family.
And you just... you didn't tell me?
We wanted to make it a
surprise. Well, it is.
It's really um... the
