Santa and Mrs. Claus made a stop at the Dairy Queen in Carrollton Saturday afternoon and visited with many children.
According to Santa, he and Mrs. Claus were on their way to China to pick up a load of toys since many of his elves were out with COVID and the toy factory couldn’t meet the demand for toys this year.
Because the very warm weather Saturday, Santa’s reindeer, especially Prancer, got overheated, and the entire group had to stop and let Prancer rehydrate. Rather than waste the opportunity to meet a few children, and because he and Mrs. Clause were also quite warm as well, they stopped into the Dairy Queen.
Here, they found many children just waiting to tell them what they wanted for Christmas.
