Wow-wee, it sure is busy in Santa’s Workshop nowadays.

Once we get past the Winter Solstice, Big Santa gets everybody going.

List-Checker Santa is double checking.

When he thinks of all those girls and boys who sent him letters, it makes him so glad.

“Ho Ho Ho! I love checking the list!”

Down in the loading zone, the Packer Santas are working up a sweat.

Mrs. Clause cheerfully declares, “I think it’s a fine time for some more coffee!”

“Hey Yeah!  I would love some coffee.”

“Not for me, thank you very much,”  says Angel.  “I don’t need coffee to lift my spirits.”

The truth is, not everybody works hard at the Workshop.  These old Santas retired years ago.  They just sit back, watch the action, and offer advice.

And somebody has to take care of the dogs.

There sure are a lot of dogs at Santa’s Workshop!

Dogs…  Dogs…

Dogs!

“Me?  I think it is a fine time for a DRINK.”

“My dear sir, how can you think of drink at a time like this?” asks Elf Princess.

“I would prefer a dance.”

“Right-O.” says Curly Crookstaff Santa.  “I would love to dance.”

“Smiley Snowman, sing us a song.”

“Madame, may I have this dance?”

“Hey!  I finished the list.”

“That’s it!”  declares Big Santa.  “Let’s get a move-on.”

“Bugle Boy, send out the call.”

“Let’s pack up the little sleigh…”

“Pack up the big sleigh….”

“And be ready to FLY!”

HO HO HO! Merry Christmas!
