By teamcrazymatt
Across clues are given without enumeration in order from first to twelfth; downs
are clued normally. It is up to the solver to figure out the correct way to arrange
the across answers in the grid; placing the down answers will aid in discovering the
proper arrangement. Place them all correctly and an appropriate holiday message will
be revealed.
