So For those of you not in the know, I’ve dressed as Santa for the past several years of NOLAPARTY’s XMas Toy Benefit and helped deliver the toys. This year, besides the “modeling gig” listed below, I also did the role of Santa in Mandeville at the Farmer’s market and in the Mandeville Craft Festival Parade (which was awesome) and ended at the water front, where I also posed for pictures with tons of children and families. That also means I am now a proud participant in more crying baby pics than I can shake two sticks at. If anyone that actually reads the site and was one of the parents of said crying babies, please send me a pic and I’ll add it to this post! But on a serious note, it’s awesome to see the smiles on these kids faces when they see me (Santa), especially with Tony & NolaParty @ Children’s Hospital where we deliver the toys to the kids (again with me as Santa). Today was no different. There was one little boy that saw me and had his mouth dropped in agape for the entire time i was near. You’d have thought I brought him the bike, that he insisted he was a good boy to earn, right then and there.
