Santa!! I know him!! And this is just a sneak peek of his BRAND NEW SUIT!! Mrs. Claus was busy this summer and made Santa a fancy new suit and vest that he can wear for every occasion. It even has a tic tac pocket. (his favorite are the green ones in case you were wondering)

It's November 1st and the amount of messages we received today for Santa and our Grumpy Green friend is CRAZY!

We have very, very few spots left open in our schedule (unless you want weekdays- and if you do there is a deal coming for you this week!!) so don't delay in booking your spot, paying your invoices and grabbing what slots are left for Santa visits!!
