Hi ho, friends! There are 28 weeks until Christmas and I’ve got a story I’m working on. I have actually been home from vacation for about a week but I was met right away with a bit of a mystery right after I returned from Colorado. Trixie – my reindeer – is still here. When […]
Hi all! Only 41 weeks remain until Christmas and we have some news to report. I’m sorry I’ve been missing weeks here and there but I just cannot get healthy. I lost my voice a few weeks back and Mrs. Claus sent me home to bed and sent me soup twice a day for a […]
Hi there! Only 46 Weeks remain until Christmas. That may seem like a long time to you but for elves at the North Pole it is not very long at all, especially after something Santa said this past week. He told elves in a meeting that this year we will have to work “faster than […]
Happy Wednesday and guess what? There are only 47 weeks until Christmas! Big meetings going on at the North Pole. And plenty of banquets, too. It’s Elf of the Year season.

Hi friends! There are just 48 weeks until Christmas, as of today. This week marks a very important time at the North Pole. The reindeer are leaving, not to return until some time in the fall. It is always a different kind of event. We do so many things with ceremony and celebration in our […]

Greetings! We made it! Just one week now until Christmas. By this time next week we will be Santa tracking on the radio and it will be Christmas Eve in Sector 1. But you want to know why I’m really happy right now? My reindeer Trixie is home. Her service on the test flights is […]
Hi friends! There’s just two weeks left until Christmas and I’ve had a see-saw day. Mrs. Claus called me in to her office today to discuss what we’re going to be working on three weeks from now. It got me really sad, really quick. The meeting was only about thirty minutes but maybe I showed […]
Hi ho! Just three weeks to go until Christmas! How about you? Are you ready? Do you have your tree up? Is your stocking hung? How about your Santa tracker map? I’ve got my Santa tracker map up already. Last year I was late to the North Pole Christmas Party because I was so engrossed […]
