19 Weeks Until Christmas

There are now only 19 weeks until Christmas! There’s just something about getting past the number 20 that makes the time seem really short. A shortage of time is exactly what people here at the North Pole are feeling. Especially at Santa’s Workshop. When I reported last week that Santa’s workshop is behind it unleashed […]

20 Weeks Until Christmas

Hi ho! Just 20 weeks to go until Christmas! And that’s a cause for concern. At least to one certain elf in Santa’s workshop that I talked to today. He is a supervisor, I won’t say which one. But he’s really worried. “We have almost four months left until Christmas and we’ve have more than […]

21 Weeks Before Christmas

There are just 21 weeks left until Christmas. Are your cookies made yet? Your tree up? Your wish list for Santa written? Your stocking hung? Those are the types of questions being asked here at the North Pole right now. People here just cannot believe that July is over. In fact, we had a kind […]

23 Weeks Until Christmas

Hi ho, just 23 weeks to go until Christmas! Now the fun part of Christmas in July is upon us. I’m told that Santa himself has a big announcement to make ahead of all the water fights, picnics and contests of this weekend at the North Pole. So keep your eyes peeled for that. Also, […]

24 Weeks Until Christmas

Christmas in July is traditionally a fun time at the North Pole but so far it’s been all business. The news at North Pole Flight Command is really starting to come out. Santa’s sleigh has resumed test flights, the North Pole Navy has been deployed and the tracking map has now gone live for elves […]

25 Weeks Until Christmas

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 […]

27 Weeks Until Christmas

Hi guys, there are just 27 weeks until Christmas and you know what that means! It means next week we cross over into the 2nd half of the countdown and that we celebrate Leon Day. Those who have followed along here at Santa Update over the years all know what Leon Day is and why […]

28 Weeks Until Christmas

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 […]

41 Weeks Until Christmas

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 […]

Santa’s Retreat

Hi Gang! There are 44 weeks until Christmas and I’m so sorry I’ve missed the countdown the last little while. But some surprising things have happened since the last time I talked with you. At the Valentine’s Day Elf Ball I was serving on the punch line when I was given by a very official […]

46 Weeks Until Christmas

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 […]

47 Weeks Until Christmas

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. Every year each department at the North Pole announces their Elf of the Year. These are elves who perform at exceptional levels. While most […]
