It’s Been A While!

I hear it’s been a hot summer for many of you! We here at the North Pole have enjoyed steady temperatures of 32 degrees or below! Perfect for being in the Christmas Spirit!

I haven’t written a post on here for some time, and for that, I apologize. Last year was an extra busy year: so many toys to make, and so many children to visit! I cannot tell you how many millions of children made it onto my NICE list last year!

Now, this year, the Elves have already begun their toy-making, and I have begun my list-making! Mrs. Claus has been busy trying new cookie recipes in the kitchen. And best of all, I have been making arrangements to come visit many of you during the holiday season: to visit your schools, your downtown parades, light up festivals and so many more fun events. I hope to have my calendar of events posted real soon, so be on the lookout!

In the meantime, keep helping out your parents, do your best work at school, and do something nice for someone today. And remember: Santa Loves YOU!

Christmas 2021, Here We Come!

Welcome to our home!

Christmas 2020 was different. It was a time of staying home and staying healthy. Mrs. Claus and I were very concerned for the health and safety of children all around the world, but we were also sad to think we wouldn’t get to visit with everyone. That’s when we decided to invite everyone to our home at the North Pole…virtually!

What wonderful times we had! We were able to sit and chat with children and their families, see all the family pets, and hear so many wonderful Christmas wishes!

Now we look ahead to Christmas 2021. Things are improving; restrictions are lifting in many parts of the world, and it looks like most everything could be back to normal in time for the holidays! Santa and Mrs. Claus are fully vaccinated and looking forward to getting out and about to visit with everyone.

Just the other day, Mrs. Claus and I were talking. We were a little sad that we wouldn’t be having anyone visit us at the North Pole this year. But then I said “Why not? We can come out and visit with the children just like in years past, but why not also continue the virtual visits to our home and my workshop?”

So that is what we will do! This Christmas, you will indeed see Santa around your town – opening the Christmas season, in parades, sitting for pictures, at parties and celebrations. But you will also have the opportunity to visit with Santa virtually at special times throughout the Christmas season!!

In the coming weeks, I will write more about virtual visits and how you can be a part of them! So be on the lookout for upcoming posts!

Christmas 2021 may very well be the best one ever!!

Catching Up!

Well, ho, ho hello again, everyone! It’s been a while since I’ve written-but duty called! Last month, the elves came back from their well-deserved vacation and began preparations for Christmas 2019. And of course, I had to be there to make sure everything was back up and running smoothly. Let me tell you, if what I saw was any indication, this coming Christmas will be the best one yet!

Where was I before I left…oh, yes, telling you about some of the best photographers in the area! Timber and Twine Photography is another one of my very favorites! Samantha Reed is a delightful photographer, and she captured many magical moments during a neighborhood party. She was good with the children – very important in my opinion! – and made everyone feel special. In addition to the more formal photos, Samantha captured some spontaneous moments that are priceless!

A Wonderful Season!

My oh my!!  What an incredible Christmas season it was! Santa was able to spend time with so many of his friends, and the “Nice” list was longer than it’s ever been!

The elves outdid themselves this year, and the reindeer nailed all their take-offs and landings!

And the cookies….oh, the cookies were DELICIOUS!

While most of us at the North Pole are still enjoying our ‘long winter’s nap’, Santa wanted to be able to give big ‘thank yous’ to some of the fine folk who helped make this Christmas season extraordinary. So, over the next few days, I’ll be writing about them, and perhaps, if you see them during the year, you can add your thanks as well!

Here Comes Santa Claus!

Even though it is only September, Santa’s schedule is already filling up nicely! Santa just loves being able to visit with as many boys and girls as he can; it’s so heartwarming to see how good everyone has been, especially this year!

Not long ago Santa had the honor of attending a birthday party! Let me tell you, what a wonderful time that was: an entire roomful of good little girls and boys, and all their parents and grandparents! This week, Santa received a note from the mother of the birthday boy:

“Our son requested a Christmas theme party for his 4th birthday. I knew that  having Santa come visit the party was a must. Santa Ralph was recommended by a friend and I am so glad we had him at the party. Santa Ralph made sure to interact with each and every guest, take pictures, tell stories and even brought Mrs. Claus along for the visit. I would highly recommend him at any Christmas gathering you have. He definitely made the party a hit and our guests are still talking about it. Thanks for helping make Keaton’s wish of Santa coming to his party a reality!  “

 

Have you gone over to the “Come See Santa” page yet? There you will find a calendar of all the events Santa Ralph will be attending. More events are added each week, so be sure to keep checking – Santa would love to see you this year!

Stay nice!
