About 5 years ago Willie Dunford asked if I would dress up like the "Grinch" for a ward party...I had so much fun with it that it's continued year after year and I'm not sure if I'll ever be able to not dress up as the "king of sinful sots". Here's a few pix of the day I visited Heather's preschool kids...I think I only made one student cry (there's always at least one) but by the end of my visit we were pretty good buddies.
Harley's always a little hesitant to put on the "Max" getup
This is hilarious. I ran over to the elementary school to visit some classes and went to Kate's class first. I decided to make a frightening entrance and jumped into the classroom and yelled something kinda loud and obnoxious. I scared this kid so much that he fell completely out of his chair and hit the floor. He was laughing, I was laughing and the whole class erupted in laughter. It was seriously the best reaction I've ever had...very worth it-I just wish I had the video camera running when it happened.
I think I asked the kids: "Who likes the Grinch?" I have quite a fan club.
The upside to this character is being obnoxious and rude to everyone I come into contact with because...hey, I'm the Grinch and...I can, and will every time I put this getup on...the downside?...trying to get all of the green off. I can't wait until next year...
Who doesn't love the Grinch? It looks like you talk to the kids in front of the classroom - what do you talk to them about - the Grinch story?
ReplyDeleteDarren, you are the coolest!
ReplyDeleteThe bigger pictures look awesome!!!! And just in time for the Grinch pictures. Way to go. I have seen you in action, and you could give Jim Carrey a real run for the money as Grinch.
