1 week to go! Yay! We made it! I call this week “hands-on” this week. Mrs. Claus, for example, is doing stuff. Meetings and phone calls are pretty much over. She’s got herself up to her elbows in flour and giggles. Yes, she’s making cookies. She’s making eggnog. She’s making fudge. She’s making fun for […]
Two weeks from today we will be tracking Santa and looking to the skies for him to come. Two weeks from today is Christmas Eve. That makes it the busiest time of the year at the North Pole – the absolute peak of Operation Merry Christmas. We talked with Elf Ernest, Senior Vice President of […]
Hi everybody! There are three weeks left now until Christmas and it’s a great time to be an elf! I cannot tell you how great the energy is now at the North Pole. We’ve done a good job with Operation Merry Christmas so far this year and you can just tell everyone feels good about […]
There are five weeks to go before Christmas – and this is by far the biggest week of the year at the North Pole. Yesterday the Reindeer Games kicked off and they end on Wednesday. Thursday, of course, is Thanksgiving Day – which means the annual Elf Parade in the morning, the Turkey Bowl in […]
There are now just 6 weeks until Christmas. And it is getting crazy. I visited Santa’s workshop this week with Mrs. Claus. I was there to just take notes for her in a meeting with Elf Bernard. I’ve talked to you about Elf Bernard before. He’s awesome. But he is nothing like people think. Dumb […]
Hi ho, just 7 weeks to go until Christmas! This is really an important time at the North Pole. As you’ve seen from all the news being posted we’re now in the countdown to Operation Merry Christmas. Every day it shows how much we have to go until Operation Merry Christmas really begins. The truth […]
Hi all! So, Santa and Mrs. Claus are back, at just 8 weeks remaining until Christmas. Suddenly things feel right at the North Pole. I cannot tell you how energized things are. The Halloween Party went from feeling uncertain, not knowing if Santa or Mrs. Claus would be here, to now being the hottest ticket […]
There are 9 weeks left until Christmas – and a little more than a week left until Halloween. I can’t tell you how stressed I am. Honestly, if Mrs. Claus had planned to be gone all this time I don’t think I would be stressed. But we all thought she was going to be here. […]
There are 10 weeks until Christmas and I’m not liking the fact there are no Clauses at the North Pole. Mrs. C was supposed to be at her family’s home in Canada for Thanksgiving held last Monday. She was supposed to be home Thursday but called to say she was going to be out a […]
Just 11 weeks now remain until Christmas and things are really happening at the North Pole. No, Santa is not back. And, no, the reindeer have not returned. And, yes, Mrs. Claus is away from the North Pole this weekend to celebrate Thanksgiving in Canada with some of her family. BUT – things are otherwise […]
Just 12 weeks until Christmas, guys. That’s just crazy. The snow here is really coming down. So it’s starting to feel like Christmas even though the stockings are not yet hung and the trees are not yet up. Snow changes everything and we’re getting dumped on. Elf Seymour Snow tells me it’s going to be […]
Hi everyone. There are just 14 weeks until Christmas yet the big topic here has been – Thanksgiving. Three weeks from now is Canadian Thanksgiving. That’s a thing here at the North Pole if only because Santa and Mrs. Claus usually go to Canada for a family Thanksgiving every year. Mrs. Claus, you see, has […]
