Reindeer Can’t Drive

I am sure you know elves are silly.  You might even know that my reindeer love doing silly things too.   But do you know who the silliest reindeer are?

Well, of all my reindeer, Dasher and Vixen do the silliest things.

Last night they hid pointy pinecones in Rudolph’s bed.  He was so angry his nose glowed for an hour!

Then poor Dasher found his comfy straw bed outside.   It was a block of ice by bedtime!

But today was the worst.  Vixen snuck two remote control cars out of the workshop.  She dared Dasher to race her.  It was a disaster!

Both reindeer wanted to win.  Of course, it is very hard to use a remote control with hooves!  The cars went every which way!

Vixen’s jeep smashed into Clumsy the Elf.  Clumsy fell into a rack of china dolls.  Those beautiful dolls broke into a zillion pieces.  Then the rack of dolls knocked over three other shelves of toys!

Dasher did not do any better.   His truck knocked over the puzzle table.  Pieces from 100 different puzzles lay in a mixed up jumble on the floor.

The cars finally crashed to a stop by the train table.  Vixen and Dasher knew they were in BIG trouble.   No one made a peep.  They all just stared at all the ruined toys.

Yes, the reindeer’s fun ended quickly.  They had caused a bunch of extra work for the already busy elves.  And it is only a few days until Christmas!

Clumsy’s team went right to work.  They have to fix all of the broken toys.  I think they will almost be done by Christmas.

Well, Vixen and Dasher said they were sorry but I had to put them onto the Naughty List!  They promised to stay out of trouble.  Well, at least until after Christmas.

(By the way, I am sorry if anyone gets a puzzle missing a piece or two!)

Merry Christmas!
