Morning folks!

By this time if I was in Haiti, we’d be putting the final touches on the meal and the prep for our annual Christmas gathering and distribution.

It was like having a mini north pole in our backyard!

Enjoy the pics and remember it’s mostly always about the kids.

We always had a list of names so we would not forget any child of the neighborhood. But we also had bags with no names for whomever dropped by and boxes of extras where kids could pick their own gifts.

Usually don’t share pics of me doing stuff but here I am doing the santa thing.

Nate Game director!

One of the neighbors would play santa

Nate always just one of the kids



Sending cash just ain’t the same thing. I do it cause they need it… but I would prefer just being back in Haiti.

It’s not about the gifts that you receive

it’s about the joy you deliver

It’s not about the money that you spend

it’s about the love that you extend

Ask Santa for love and happiness

Tell him to bring a bag of cheers

it’s Christmas the season of love

It’s not about the dress you want to wear

It’s about showering those you love with care

It’s not about that must go party of the year

It’s about enjoying your silly family

Ask Santa for smiles and laughs

Tell him to bring a bag of hugs

It’s Christmas, the season of love

It’s Christmas, It’s Christmas

Let’s revel in happiness

It’s Christmas, it’s Christmas

Let’s bask in happiness
