Christmas 1987 |
Tyrel is not sure he likes 'Santa' (GRANDPA) 1984 |
We made it tradition that instead of earning money we would use it as a service.
Elyse loves Santa (Grandpa) |
Our first experience being Santa's helper was when Clark was approached by Zions Bank to help out at their Christmas Party. It brought in $100. dollars. After two or three events that year we had an extra special Christmas.
THE TIME OF OUR LIVES!
All three of our children have always helped 'Santa' (Grandpa) and 'Santa' (Dad) as their special ELVES. One year in particular, Elyse went as Santa's Elf with Santa (Dad). She has awesome memories of delivering Christmas for a special family. The joy they experienced helping this family will never be forgotten.
Being Santa's helper began with Grandpa Mac. When he started the tradition in Pleasant Grove because of his nice round belly and HO HO HO! And a Mrs. Santa beside him. He has done it so consistently that several families has only known one Santa. It is awesome to get pictures of the kids on Grandpa Santa's knee.
A legacy of Santa's helpers.
