Okay, for those of you new to this achievement, and want to get it as quickly as possible, here are the steps.
1) Make sure you have either [item=21212] from /kissing Winter Revelers, or the [item=21213] from the Winter Veil gifts.
2) Go to Ogri'la and talk to [npc=23233]. Pick up the quest, The Crystals.
3) Fly around and look for [npc=23174] and [npc=22304]. There are two Crystalfused Miners and one Mo'arg Extractor that walk together. Each one will yield 2-3 Apexis Shards, so killing all 3 can get you anywhere between 6-9 shards right off the bat. Why get more than the 5 required? Because you will actually need a total of 25 shards to get to the Bomb Them Again!. After that, the % rate drops, and most will only drop 1 shard. But you will eventually get the 25 required.
4) Go back to [npc=23233] and turn in his quest.
5) Talk to [npc=23316] to get Our Boy Wants To Be A Skyguard Ranger. When you get to the forge to get the Unstable Flask of the Beast, make sure you only get ONE flask, otherwise you waste the other 10 Apexis Shards you'll need for the next flask.
6) Return to [npc=23316] and turn in quest, then you'll get the next quest, A Father's Duty. Fly to Bash'ir Landing and use your last 10 Apexis Shards to get Unstable Flask of the Sorcerer. Return again to [npc=23316] and turn that quest in. Watch as his son [npc=23365], quaffs both flasks, and goes to the Skyguard Outpost to apply. (You don't actually need to follow Torkus Jr. but the following little animation with him is kind of funny...)
7) Go to [npc=23233] again and pick up the quest The Skyguard Outpost.
8) Talk to [npc=23334], And then report to [npc=23120] for the first Bombing Run. Once that is done, pick up Bomb Them Again!, and use either your [item=21212] or [item=21213] to turn your mount into a reindeer. Do the Bomb Them Again!, turn it back in to [npc=23120], and Voila! You haveFa-la-la-la-Ogri'la!
Edit: When I first did this many years ago, the person who lead me through had me running through this just as I wrote it down for you all (maybe that was necessary back then, I don't remember). While it may not be necessary to do the A Father's Duty part of it now, I had found it charming and a little funny. It did not tag on all that much extra time (especially if you are farming the shards from the Crystalfused Miners and Mo'arg Extractors. Besides, you can earn not only Skyguard rep here (if you are trying to get the Nether Ray mounts, you can earn Ogri'la rep as well , if you are going for exalted reps with everyone (both factions offer dailies...and with no cap on dailies now... ^_~).

Apparently you no longer need to do the 12 quests to unblock the daily bombing quest (November 4 2009)
In preparation of 2009 Fa-la-la-Ogri'la, I visited Ogri'la and noticed that The Crystals was available to me without having done any of the preceding quests needed to unblock it!
I followed up with:
Our Boy Wants To Be A Skyguard Ranger
The Skyguard Outpost
Bombing Run
and finally Bomb Them Again!
