Rocky Mountain Christmas Page #7

---

at your family ranch

this year?

Um, no,

but, um...

We're-- we're still hoping

for a great turnout,

and, uh...

Um...

Uh...

[Laughing]

Wow, um, listeners,

a very special guest

has just joined us.

Uh, the one and only

Graham Mitchell...

Hi there.

Has just joined us

in studio.

Welcome, Graham!

Welcome.

Awesome to be here.

Thank you so much

for having me.

Um, I just wanted

to stop by

and tell you

and your great listeners

out there in rock creek

that if you love Christmas

as much as I do,

then this year's

Christmas parade

is not one to be missed,

and in fact,

i have an exclusive announcement

for you and for your listeners.

I'm working

on a float

that I'm pretty sure

is going to be...

The thing that everybody's

talking about

on parade day,

and, to top that,

I have accepted the position

of grand marshal

for the parade

this year.

Well, there you have it,

rock creek!

You heard it here first!

Graham Mitchell has just turned

this year's parade

into the hottest event

of the year!

Thank you so much.

You are listening

to kxjp 109.4,

Colorado's

best country station.

We will be right back.

Thank you so much.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you for coming in.

Do you know anything

about this?

[Laughing]

It's my great-grandfather's

old sleigh.

It's seen better days.

You know, Cody and i

used to play in this

when we were kids.

Well, you know,

I did promise

at least one float,

so I think

if we can get

this thing cleaned up...

It'll look a lot like

Santa claus's sleigh.

It's perfect.

We dust off

that old record

and sing along

with nat king Cole

grandpa falls asleep

while grandma tells

of days of old

all the crazy family's

come to town

and they're knocking

at the door

'cause

it's finally Christmas

it's finally Christmas

we've been waiting for it

all year long

we feel it in the air

and we hear it in the songs

there is peace on earth

and no place like home

it's what the world's

been missing

it's finally Christmas

You know...

I just feel

like this tree

could use more color.

Oh!

See, I'm sorry.

I missed.

First take is always a bust.

It's my second take.

That's where the genius is.

Feel the flow...

You go for it.

Look at that.

See?

Right?

It's nice.

Some vacation

this has been for you.

All you've done is work.

Same goes for you,

and you know,

i feel really badly.

I feel like

you've just taken on a lot,

hosting Nicole

and I, and I...

I'd like to make it up to you.

What do you mean?

Well...

Cody told me

that your uncle Roy is thinking

about selling the ranch.

I'd like to call

my business manager and...

Look, I appreciate you

wanting to help...

But what?

But this is between

my uncle and my brother and me,

and one way

or another,

we just have to figure it out

ourselves.

Besides...

Besides what?

We have a parade

to deliver...

And we're not done decorating.

You did not just...

Did you really?

No, no, no!

[Laughing]

[Sarah]:
ah! No!

[Laughing]

Hey.

We're going

to head into town,

do a little

Christmas shopping.

Since when do you

go Christmas shopping?

Uh, since I found out

it was half the joy

of the holiday season.

Do you want to join us?

Uh, no, I should

probably stay here.

Got to make a couple

more of those wreaths

for the lampposts.

Wait a minute, you mean...

Hold on.

You mean

these wreaths?

Boom.

[Laughing]

And there are ten more

just like 'em.

Wow.

[Cody]:

so you coming, Sarah?

Come on,

it'll be fun.

Looks like

you're out of excuses.

Let's go.

I can't believe

you're responsible

for all of this.

It's beautiful.

Honestly,

at first,

I was a little

overwhelmed,

but then I started

thinking of it

as one big hotel lobby

to decorate.

You did an amazing job.

Wow... snowmen!

I haven't built one

since I was a kid.

We should join in!

Sure, but it looks like

we missed the deadline.

[Nicole]:

mm... hang on.

[Laughing]

What is she doing?

Nicole has a way

of winning people over.

She's good

at using the charm card.

Right, and you would

never do that.

Who, me?

C'mon guys!

Let's build a snowman!

See?

-Thank you!

-Thank you.

Appreciate it.

I have to say,

you are pretty good at this

for a California boy.

Well, I hope so.

You know, I...

I took a sculpting class

for this film

I shot a few years ago,

so it's...

It's finally paying off.

Sure seems like things

come easy to you.

Yeah?

Is that what it looks like?

Everything that I've ever

really cared about,

I had to work

pretty hard for.

You know, like my career.

So I went

from doing car commercials

to guest spots on TV

to feature films...

What?

And then...

[Clearing throat]

Of course...

There's you.

You guys almost

done over there?

[Cody]:
uncle Roy

just texted.

Delilah came over,

and she's not leaving

until we all head home

and join them

for hot cocoa.

Well then, shoot.

Let's go.

There you go.

Christmas stockings,

old west style...

I love them!

So Sarah,

what's the word?

Will you be ready

for the parade tomorrow night?

Surprisingly, yes.

Thanks to our new grand marshal,

we had a surge

of volunteers.

Just doing my job.

[Cody]:
and...

That's not the

only good news.

Nicole put a call in

to her producer,

and got me

a job on the film.

Cody, that's amazing!

[Delilah]:

congratulations!

Looking at the new

assistant stunt coordinator.

I'll help

wrangle the horses.

I'm happy

for you, Cody.

Thank you.

It's a start.

And Sarah, you go back

to New York next week, right?

Yeah, there are

a dozen hotel lobbies

eagerly awaiting

their new year's Eve makeovers.

Canvases awaiting an artist.

And Graham and i

will be back in L.A.,

rehearsing for

our new movie.

That's right,

and all the more

realistically

for having been here.

Thank you.

[Chuckling]

Well, since we're all going

our separate ways,

I propose a toast.

To Cody's new job,

and to all of us...

Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas.

Cheers.

-Merry Christmas.

-Merry Christmas.

Hey, come here.

I want to show

you something.

Um...

I got you something.

You didn't have

to buy me anything.

I didn't buy it.

I made this for you.

My free time.

It's for good luck.

It's perfect.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

[Delilah]:
wonderful

boot for women.

Even for men.

I can't believe

you made this.

[Cody]:
quite well,

I'll add.

I can't believe it.

The Christmas parade

is happening.

We pulled it off.

I know!

I mean, I wish we were doing

the tree-lighting ceremony,

but...

at least we have the parade.

Have you decided

what you're going to wear

as grand marshal?

Something very

Christmas-y.

That's my thought exactly.

[Cell phone ringing]

Hang on a second.

I've got to get this.

Just give me one second.

Hey.

Hey, Peter.

How you doing?

Cold!

I'm in New York

right now.

All right, what's up?

Well, looks like

you better start packing,

buddy.

Your little ranch adventure?

It looks like it's coming

to an end.

The studio needs you and Nicole
