The families on Christmas Street have been so busy with their day-to-day lives that they lose sight of the importance of family during the holiday season. Haley comes home for the Christmas holiday, but home has not been the same since her family split up. Haley’s mother Susan is working on a deal with her client which causes her to have little time for Haley or her mother Alice.  Al is too preoccupied with work that he overlooks his wife Matty.  Meanwhile, Bob and Diana’s son Jesse comes home for Christmas with a very special surprise. This “slice of life” holiday tale shares the individual stories of these neighbors as they celebrate Christmas Eve and find themselves unexpectedly united for the holiday season.  Source:  Deadline.  Photo Source:  Oprahmag.com.
