Hi everyone! With the season fast approaching I wanted to take a moment to update everyone about scheduling.

Right now if you have a locked in date with me we are good but I won't be able to schedule out anymore at the moment.

With my current work schedule/ commitments my Grinch outings have taken a big hit. I will try to make it out as much as possible but many outings are likely going to be the last minute/ unplanned cruising around for an hour type.

I am looking at the possibility of using vacation time during the holidays next year to secure set dates.

As always I will do my best to be there for the community as much as possible!

12/25/2022

Merry Christmas to everyone!!!

Thank you for another wonderful Christmas season!

See you again next year!

Hey guys don't forget to stop by Christmas at the Carousel today in Kingsport! 1 to 3pm Santa will be there too apparently.....but we'll have fun anyways.... πŸ˜‚

Wanted to give a shout out to my friends over at BURG'R & BARREL! They were kind enough to hook me up with a spot to meet and greet right along the parade route and even let me jump on their float when the weather turned for the better! Had an absolute blast and got to spread a lot of Christmas spirit! Also, if you haven't eaten there yet I highly recommend it! Hey Cowboy Burger for the win!

12/04/2022

πŸŽ„Hey guys! This is our final reminder that the Grinch is going to be at Baby Boomerang TOMORROW, Sunday the 4th at 2:00 P.M.! We’re having a free photo op. (with our staff taking lots of pictures,) prize giveaways, and a whole lot of fun waiting for you! We’re open 1-5, so come shop with us from open until close!

Congratulations Brooke Parlier!!!

Brooke's favorite thing about the season is Faith!

Thank you everyone who participated!

I'm so sorry we had to deal with scammers attempting to ruin something we all have a lot of fun doing each year but in the end we'll get the toy where it needs to be and that's what matters!

12/03/2022

Hey guys figured it would be faster to kind of let everyone know this way if you have an appointment already with the Grinch contact me. Had a run in with a deer last night. So my primary mode of transportation is out for now if the weather's good I can always utilize the Grinch Mobile. I was able to still make it to the event today because some friends chipped in and help me get myself and my stuff there. Hopefully, this will all be cleared up quickly.

12/01/2022

Hey Guys so right now it looks like the weather will keep The Grinch Mobile out of the parade Saturday. I am working something out right now though and will post as soon as I have details!

Hey guys it's come to my attention that there was a fraudulent page using my pages pictures telling people they had won and to go to some link, I will never tell you to go to a link!

As always I post the winner for everyone to see, this person was commenting under like every single comment. I have reported the page and block them so it shouldn't be an issue going forward.

Below is pictures of an example:

First clue is they're asking you to follow a link....

Second notice the name is not the same it's _TN not - TN

And last if you click on the profile you can literally see it's a profile not my page. They only have two pictures no friends etc so on

Drawing the winter at 8:00 p.m.!!!!

Edit* apparently someone made a profile using the Grinch of the Tri-Cities name and my pictures and was commenting under people's post telling them they had won, NEVER Will I ask you to follow a link off of this page for any kind of giveaway I do. This person was basically telling everyone they were a winner and the drawing isn't until Saturday..... I blocked them and reported the profile if you guys could help me by doing the same.
I'm sorry that we even have to deal with this kind of stuff.

Well hopefully y'all didn't think we would start the Grinchy season without another hard to find toy giveaway..........

And sneaky as ever I managed to grab a hold of one of these......

****Under this post leave a one word comment that expresses your favorite part of the holiday season!*****

Winner will be drawn this Saturday evening!
December 3rd.

If the doll's going to be shipped to a winner please make sure they are in the lower 48 states.

If you share the post make sure people comment on the original post not your wall. unfortunately had some people do that last year and missed out!

The winner will be chosen at random, just like last year I'll assign everyone a number and do a random number drawing.

Here we go guys! Sadly the rain washed out the parade but it's a perfect time to use some soap LOL!

These wonderful people were kind enough to offer the host an event!

So you can still come get your picture made with me and of course they have arranged a special treat!

This is honestly what Christmas is all about I am truly amazed by their generosity to do this!

Hey Johnson City!!! Stop by our Makery THIS SATURDAY from 10am - 12pm to make Bath Bombs with the Grinch! We can't wait to see you soon!πŸŽ„πŸ›

Everyone please remember the Parade in Elizabethton is still going on! It's only my involvement that was effected! By all means grab your umbrellas and go support those who could still take part!

12/09/2021

So with the increase in rain predictions for Saturday I have to withdraw from the Elizabethton parade. Unfortunately the nature of my outfit and vehicle do not go well with rain. I am working on a replacement outing now. I will post as soon as I have it figured out!.

12/04/2021

Hey guys had a great time at the parade in Gray!

I did want to address something though, we had a lot of both parents and kids running out to the car during the parade and that's a dangerous practice. I know everybody wants a toy and honestly I wish everybody could get one, but please do not approach parade participants. We don't want any accidents!

Also, while that first rule should cover it please do not grab things out of the car especially by the armful. I had someone send me pictures of the woman who did this but I am not going to post them. I also requested the person who sent me the picture not post them.

Hey everyone! Well we are about halfway to Christmas time! Just wanted to do an update for this year!

As y'all know this is something I do for my home and to have a little fun! The response last year was huge!!!!! I tried to reach as many people as possible. This year with restrictions loosening I will hopefully be able to do parades etc again! That being said as of right now the larger appearances are gonna be a focus this year to help see as many people as possible with the limited schedule I'll have ( still working a real job sadly......no lottery win yet πŸ˜†)

I appreciate the interest in private bookings/ photon sessions etc but I just can't keep up!

Y'all have a great Summer/Fall and I will see you when it gets colder!
