Follow along as Santa gears up for the big night in Holly Springs and Hickory Flat

Santa: What a wonderful morning! So crisp and coolβ€”it reminds me of home! I got out early and jogged around the neighborhood awhile. Can’t tell you exactly where I am, of course, but I did take a quick peek to see if the boys and girls were making their beds before breakfast. It seems the girls are doing better than the boys. I especially noticed what a good job Stephanie and Makayla didβ€”nice and neat. Their moms won’t have to come back and straighten those beds, no sir! While I was out I saw several bikes left on the driveways here inΒ Woodstock. I think I will be on the lookout this afternoon for toys that are left scattered around. Maybe I will head towardΒ CantonΒ and Ball Ground to see how things look there.

Mrs. Claus: Now, Santa, where are your manners? Of course you went out to check on the good boys and girls, but you didn’t even mention the wonderful welcome we got from the kind folks at this week. Glenda, Frank and all of their girls made us feel so at home. The food was wonderful, and they certainly kept the room where you made pictures nice and cold for you in your heavy suit. Next time I am in there, I am going to try that Blue Moon ice cream all the kids were eating.

Today I am going to restβ€”bake cookies and sew some bells back on Santa’s suit. It’s nice to have a few days off, but we will be visiting boys and girls at the YMCA in Alpharetta on Saturday, and I am sure it will be every bit as much fun as we had at the last week.

Well, I suppose I should stop chattering away. Santa and I don’t really understand how this blog worksβ€”you know, Santa JOGS, and I CLOGβ€”but we have never learned how to BLOG. We’ll give it a try, though. You’re never too old to learn something new. Have a good day, everyone, and a wonderful Thanksgiving!
