Michael Hogan (Marshall) and Susan Hogan (Judy) not only portray a married couple in this movie but are actually husband and wife.
Much of the soundtrack in this movie was taken directly from "The Christmas Shoes".
Bethany Joy Lenz plays Christine, whose full name is Angela Christine, but goes by her middle Christine. Bethany Joy also goes by her middle name of Joy in real life.
Incorrectly regarded as plot hole Betty would not have had pictures of Christine's parents from prom. Her mom wasn't from Wilsonville and didn't meet Christine's father until the last summer of college, in Boston.
