December 26, 2024Beyond Perfect!
Santa Emmett was a Christmas dream come true for the children. He was so authentic. He took the extra time to prepare custom material material for the children, including magic tricks, and a bottle of Northern Lights!! He read two stories, and the grandkids were so delighted! He worked with me to pull off just the right tone for the kids. I’m eternally grateful. Anyone who hires Emmett will be thrilled with the experience!
Thanks, Santa!!!❤️❤️❤️

It was truly my pleasure and delight as the children were absolutely delightful! The whole family welcomed me to their home and were almost excited as the children! Thank you for having me visit and spread some Christmas cheer and a little holiday magic! 🎅

About
My name is Emmett Thomason, I was born and raised in North Texas. I attended Midwestern State University for 3 years then joined the US Navy. Retired from the Navy after 20 years, operated my own Dental Laboratory in Wichita Falls for 9 years, sold out and moved to the Dallas Metroplex in 2000. I worked for the Veterans Administration in the Central Dental Lab in SE Dallas until 2015 when I retired . I live in Buda, TX 15 miles South of Austin. I consider myself a Christian Conservative Patriot. I have three grown children with 10 grandchildren and one great-grand baby.. I love children and dogs (allergic to cats, sorry).
I have been a member of several Santa Claus organizations and am currently an active member of the Lone Star Santas. I'm disciplined, loyal and professional. I usually dress in costume and arrive at the event ready to go...always in character.
Additional booking notes
Santa Suits are very hot (just like a heavy winter coat), so for indoor appearances, Santa requires a portable electric fan and an extension cord, or at least a cool environment.
