47 weeks now are left until Christmas and 5 whole weeks of this year are behind us. January, kids, is nearly a memory. I really have been enjoying the stories coming from Elf Crash Murphy about Santa’s flight. It is interesting, however, to note that most of the stuff he is saying does not actually […]
Our countdown now stands at 48 weeks until Christmas and THAT is the most important thing to know right now. Ever since I started doing the weekly countdown here at SantaUpdate.com I started getting mail. This week I got a letter with a question that Elf Ernest told me was coming. On New Year’s Eve, […]
Hi ho! Just 49 weeks to go…until Christmas. That 49 weeks is going to go fast if things don’t get organized around here. Right, there’s chaos.

There are 50 weeks until Christmas, friends. It feels funny to write that. It seems so far away and yet, to me, it feels like Christmas can come tomorrow. Santa told me I’d feel this way. You see, this year, 2023, will be my fourth year at the North Pole. It’s a big year for […]

As heard in the North Pole Radio News report above, the Elf Choir Christmas Concert has been cancelled due to heavy snow damaging the roof of the event venue. Slated for famous Dickens Hall at North Pole Village, […]
Last week’s Reindeer Games were won by The Mighty Mick, a two year old reindeer of massive size who surprised everyone with an inspired performance. But The Mighty Mick did not win on the strength of his body. He won due to the size of his heart. Last winter I wrote a feature titled the […]
Cookies for Santa is a long-standing tradition. But you would not believe how many questions we get about cookies and Santa every year.

There are just 4 weeks left until Christmas and things here are so busy at the North Pole. I don’t even know where to start. I guess I’ll tell you first about Trixie, my reindeer. I got to see her this week for Thanksgiving. She came home with the others from the test flight teams […]
It’s five weeks until Christmas, kids. FIVE WEEKS!!!! Yikes. Thanksgiving is kind of like a barrier on the calendar – a big ole stop sign. It is a moment in Christmas time that makes you step back for just a moment and then – BAM! – it’s full on Christmas. I love it. I can […]
