&#8216;Twas the night before Christmas! 
Finally another scene! On the left is an indoor scene with a parent telling their kids a story with the fire roaring and presents under the tree! 
On the right is the side of the house, a big white tree, the moon, stars and a little itty bitty santa and his sleigh!
