Hi ho, gang! There are 25 weeks until Christmas! All of a sudden it really feels like we’re cookin’ here at the North Pole. It was just a few weeks back and it felt abandoned around here. But now there’s activity just about everywhere. I keep getting a lot of worried questions. Will Santa make […]

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 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 […]
Happy New Year! Just 50 weeks remain until Christmas and we’re in an all new routine. Christmas Eve this year falls on a Wednesday and Christmas Day is on a Thursday. That means my countdown post each week will come out on one of those two days – all year, right up until the big […]
