Clark Griswold
Christmas Vacation is Brooke’s favorite Christmas movie (as you hear in episode 129), so this had to be the opener of our Christmas Character Gift Guide Part 2! Clark is a fanatic of Christmas and goes through a number of mishaps throughout the film. As you look at his holiday wish list, you will see nods to some of the class scenes as well as gifts for the “work around the house outside” person in your life. Enjoy! And as Eddie would say, “Save the neck for me, Clark!”
Here’s a list of the items in this image (all are clickable affiliate links): Eddie ornament, tea towels, moose glass, Carhartt beanie, Eddie’s hat, outdoor proof extension cords, Griswold house, chainsaw, Christmas sweaters, Christmas Vacation movie, turkey fryer, squirrel trap, ladder, fire pit, shop vac
Rudolph
The famous red nosed reindeer, Rudolf, makes many appearances in holiday classics. Rudolf is the guiding leader of Santa’s sleigh on Christmas night, and he is a beloved character in the American holiday traditions. Santa has his reindeer, and you have your pets too! We know that pets are valued in the home, so we wanted to include something for them. Have a dog mom or cat lady in your life? This is for them!
Here’s a list of the items in this image (all are clickable affiliate links): Rudolph and friends ornaments, Christmas leashes, Furbo, Christmas specials movie collection, pet bandanas, pet travel blanket, pet stocking, advent calendar, dog bed, reindeer outfit
Jesus
The reason we celebrate this time of year! We celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ every December 25th, and He is the reason for the season! If you read the Gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke, & John) in the Bible, they give the account of Jesus and His life on Earth. It is an incredible story all about how God loves us so much and wants us to enter into a relationship with Him. His gift board is full of beautiful neutrals and items that reflect Jesus.

Jack Frost
This chilling character is dedicated to the friend who is always cold. We all have that friend in our life and it also happens to be both Brooke and Faren. Jack Frost is featured in our Christmas character gift guide part 2 because we know as temperatures drop, you’ll want these items to keep you warm!

If you’re about our age, you grew up on Home Alone and The Santa Clause. Home Alone is a go-to Christmas classic complete with fun movie quotes that are used year round. In episode 129, Christmas Character Gift Guide Part 2, we’ve made Kevin’s list kid-friendly with fun items for adults too.

Other Tributes

We hope you’ve enjoyed our Christmas Character Gift Guide Part 1 as much as we have! It was so much fun to put this together, and we know you’ll have a great time listening to the episode while you shop for your people this holiday season. Remember, God loves you so much that He sent His son to die for us so that we could live with Him forever in Heaven.
“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.”
John 3:16
