Shrek the Halls

There.

That's better.

All clean.

He sees you when you're sleepin'

He knows when you're awake

What are you doing here?

- And what are you talking about?

- I'm talkin' about Santa Claus!

Only 159 days left till

Christmas, so you better be good.

I'd better be good? How 'bout this? You

better be scarce. Now go on.

I don't care about Christmas.

Jingle bells, jingle bells

Jingle all the way

- Donkey!

- 51 days left till Christmas.

Get your butt in gear

and get your marshmallows,

because without marshmallows,

sweet potatoes are nothin'!

Enough! I don't care

about any of this nonsense.

Now shoo!

OK. But don't say

I didn't say I told you so.

Smashing through the snow

And laughin' all the way

It's finally here. Tomorrow's Christmas

Eve! Got everything ready?

- No.

- You haven't trimmed stockings

or hung your chestnuts

or roasted the tree?

- Or figgified your puddin'?

- Donkey!

Will you get it through your head?

No one here gives

a hoot about Christmas!

A white Christmas!

How perfect.

And it's our first one together

as a family. Isn't this exciting?

Oh, yeah!

How 'bout that?

There's somethin' Shrek needs to...

Don't ruin the surprise

for her, Donkey.

Surprise?

Oh, I love surprises!

You're the best. Come on,

let's go make some cookies.

OK, you a dead man.

You know that?

Hold that thought.

I'll be right back.

OH, good, you're still open.

No, we're closing now.

Merry Christmas.

Wait, wait, wait! I need your help.

I have to make a Christmas,

and I have no idea

what it is or how to do it!

Why didn't you say so?

That's super.

I know all about Christmas,

and I've just the book.

Christmas for Village Idiots.

It's all spelled out. See?

One, decorate house.

Two, the stockings by the fireplace.

Step three, the Christmas feast.

- What's that?

- Step four? The Christmas tree!

The tree goes inside the house?

Anyway, step five, the telling

of the Christmas story.

This is the step that says

I created the perfect Christmas

for my perfect family perfectly.

Family by the fire,

everyone cozy and warm.

Happy, happy. Voila!

- Sure.

- Long story short,

it's all right here.

It's no problem.

- Perfect.

- I mean, how hard can it be?

- I didn't get the eggnog!

- Closed?! What do you mean?

- Dwight the Knight action figure?

- Marshmallows!

Sweet potatoes are nothing

without marshmallows!

Bye-bye. Have a super Christmas.

Honey, is that you?

Fiona! What are

you doing up so early?

- Are you OK?

- I'm all right.

What are you? Are you decorating?

- Yeah, that. Surprised?

- Yes.

Well, this is our first

Christmas together as a family,

and, you know, I just want to

make sure that it's perfect.

Shrek, I think... it's beautiful.

- It's passable.

- It's horrible!

- Donkey!

- They usually toilet paper and run.

Whoever did this means business!

Get rid of all this

and get tinsel and doilies and ribbons

and some plastic reindeer.

What is it you wanted today?

It's Christmas Eve!

I've brought you a little somethin'.

Go ahead, take a couple.

I bought plenty for everybody!

Oh, isn't that... nice.

Well, thanks for stopping by for that

brief visit, but as you can see,

there's a lot of work to do.

Just like him to wait till last minute.

Don't worry, there's one thing I

know, it's Christmas.

He's gonna want help,

advice, and he's definitely...

Actually, I think what he really wants

is a nice family Christmas.

Oh, a family Christmas.

Yeah. It's the

first one with the kids.

Don't say a word.

I know exactly what you mean.

I got a lot to do now,

so I better get movin'.
