Despite his jam-packed schedule, St. Nick has managed to carve out some time for photos with all the good boys and girls on the Nice List. Before he sets off, they can whisper their greatest wishes in his ear and hope he comes through on Christmas morning.
Everywhere you look, the sights and sounds of the season make for a holly jolly experience kids one to ninety-two will surely enjoy.
