We all know Santa Claus will be a busy man this weekend, but as our photo gallery shows, the man in red stayed on his feet last weekend as well, even working the drive-through window at McDonalds.

Santa in South Heights

Last Saturday, the Village of South Chicago Heights held their annual Breakfast with Santa. Families came to enjoy breakfast and see the balloon magic of Dale  Obrochta, who created holiday balloons for children. Santa completed the visit talking with young residents, handing out Christmas stockings. The event is in it's twentieth year sponsored by the village and Mayor David Owen.

Although the weather was frightful, Santa still made a visit to the Olympia Fields McDonald's during Family Night. He even worked  the drive-thru, greeting  customers with a "ho ho ho." Children had their pictures taken with Santa by McDonald's assistant manager JoAnn Saenz.

Check out the photo gallery below to see how Santa's trip through the Heights and Olympia Fields went.
