Sally May and Loper head off to visit the relatives, leaving Slim in charge of Little Alfred. Hank's sure trouble will come knocking. First, Slim is struck down with the measles. Then a blizzard hits the ranch, trapping them in the house with no heat or electricity. Somehow, Hank's got to find a way to get them out of this mess ... before they're snowed in for good!

In the style of Clement Moore's well-known poem, the firefighters from Firehouse One receive a visit from Ol' Sergeant Nick, who leaves them lots of surprises, including a shiny new pumper truck, while they are putting out a fire on Christmas Eve.

Hank the Cowdog is determined to find out who's behind the series of garbage barrel raids for which he is being held responsible.
