Santa's Little Helpers

 

Jeep:  Why do WE have to wrap the presents?  Isn't this Mom and Dad's job?

Pumpkinspice:  They're busy with work, and don't you want Peapod to have something to open tomorrow morning?

Jeep:  Fine, give me the next measurement.

Pumpkinspice:  7x8 at a 35 degree angle, then 6x6x2, and then a radius of 12...I think.

Jeep:  Seriously, what dummy packaged this toy, we should hang him by his toe nails! Ok how about I cut enough to cover it and you trim the leftovers.

Pumpkinspice:  But that's not exact.

Jeep:  Do you want me to quit?!

Pumpkinspice: Fine, we'll try it your way, but don't come crying to me when its not pretty.

Jeep:  Who cares if its pretty, besides Peapod will probably play with the paper more than the gift.

Pumpkinspice:  They clearly did not invent tape with bear fur in mind!

Jeep:  With all due respect, but I don't think they expected a bear would WANT to wrap presents!

Later that night...

Pumpkinspice:  Here Jeep, put this hat on.

Jeep:  Why?

Pumpkinspice: Cause my elf hat is too small for your big head.

Jeep: Like I'd wear an elf hat!  No why am I wearing a Santa hat?

Pumpkinspice:  Well, we need to get into the festive mood and put these presents under the tree!

Jeep:  That's Santa's job...and I don't want coal in my stocking this year for impersonating him.

Pumpkinspice:  I took precautions, Santa sent me a letter of permission, so we're covered.

Jeep:  Looks legit to me...OK!

Mr. Mouse Rose:  Who goes there!!!!!

Pumpkinspice:  Ummmm...we live here.  Who the heck are you?!

Jeep:  And what are you doing under OUR TREE!

Mr. Mouse Rose:  This is MY TREE, I'm the Guardian of all Christmas presents.

Pumpkinspice:  (Whispers to Jeep)  You think he knows he's guarding an empty tree?

Jeep:  Excuse me but what is your name, and how did you get under our tree?

Mr. Mouse Rose: (Puffs up his chest)  I'm Mr. Mouse Rose and I've been instructed, by the one's that call themselves Mother and Father, to guard this tree with all its presents until Christmas from all little one's that would DARE to sneak a peak before the Grand Revealing Day!

Pumpkinspice:  You mean Christmas Day.

Mr. Mouse Rose:  That's what I said. Hmmph  Its a VERY important task, now run along for I have a busy night ahead of me.

Jeep:  But there are no presents under there for you to guard.

Mr. Mouse Rose:  Irregardless, I was tasked with this mission and I shall see it to the end.

Pumpkinspice:  Well, what if we have presents that need to be guarded?

Jeep:  And what if we required your SPECIAL skills?

Mr. Mouse Rose:  Well...my contract doesn't specify which presents I must guard.  As the Protector of Presents, the Emissary of Colorful Bows, and most....

Pumpkinspice:  Yeah, yeah, yeah, we'll just put these here and you can go on with your accolades after we leave.

Jeep:  Yeah its bedtime so sleep tight Mr. Mouse Rose.

Mr. Mouse Rose:  I will NOT fail you my furry little friends.

Pumpkinspice:  Say it Jeep.

Jeep:  Do I have too?

Pumpkinspice:  Jeeeeeeep!

Jeep:  Fine, fine, fine....Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night!
