This post is in partnership with Netflix. All opinions expressed are my own. You can read my full Disclosure Policy here.
One of my family’s favorite holiday traditions is to watch alllll the Christmas movies. One of our new favorites that just released this year is Klaus on Netflix.
Klaus on Netflix
While the traditional stories of Santa and Christmas never get old, Klaus has a very unique twist of an unlikely friendship that launched a legend. It that held our interest and was so refreshing.
Klaus Netflix Cast
When Jesper (Jason Schwartzman) distinguishes himself as the postal academy’s worst student, he is stationed on a frozen island above the Arctic Circle, where the feuding locals hardly exchange words let alone letters.
Jesper is about to give up when he finds an ally in local teacher Alva (Rashida Jones), and discovers Klaus (Oscar® winner J.K. Simmons), a mysterious carpenter who lives alone in a cabin full of handmade toys.
These unlikely friendships return laughter to Smeerensburg, forging a new legacy of generous neighbors, magical lore and stockings hung by the chimney with care.

This year has been particularly rough financially for me. I received a very generous act of kindness from a co-worker. She paid my parking for a month.

We usually adopt a child from a giving tree but I am not able to do that this year. I hope to be able to do two next year.
