Bringing Generations Together with a Lifetime of Christmas Spirit
The Heart Behind the Holidays: Meet the Genuine Santa and Mrs. Claus of Idaho
At 4SantaC, Christmas is something we carry with us all year long.
Santa C has been bringing holiday magic to children and families for over 25 years. He’s held newborns just days old and made lifelong memories with grown-ups who still believe. With Mrs. Claus by his side for more than a decade, they’ve turned each visit into a moment of warmth, kindness, and joy that stays with you long after the tree comes down.
Together, they’ve celebrated over 57 years of marriage. That kind of love and partnership shows in every visit, every conversation, and every gentle smile. People often say you can feel the difference. And we believe that’s because the joy they bring is real.
How It All Began
Before making their home in Idaho, Santa and Mrs. Claus spent many years in Southern Utah. They were regular fixtures at community events, such as the Washington City Bazaar and Downtown Mainstreet in St. George, often partnering with Yellow Pic Photography to offer free portraits to families.
They made hundreds of appearances at home gatherings, bank events, schools, churches, and local shops. From Zion’s Bank to Mountain America Credit Union, they brought something to every visit that couldn’t be bought or staged: authenticity.
When they moved to Idaho more than 11 years ago, they brought that same spirit with them, and it quickly caught on.
Where We’ve Been
Over the years, they’ve been invited into homes, classrooms, auditoriums, and town squares all across the Treasure Valley. Some of the places
they’ve been welcomed include:
Nampa Public Library
(for 10 years and counting)
Star Christmas Market
City of Eagle’s Country Christmas
YMCA West Boise
JC Penney Portrait Studios
Penny’s Portrait Studio
St. Luke’s Hospital
Star Eggstravaganza
Schools, churches, and assisted living homes
HighBrook Way Dental
Community events, auctions, and charity fundraisers
Texas Roadhouse in Nampa
Many more beloved local businesses
They’ve also brought magic virtually—through Zoom or Google Meet—when families couldn’t gather in person but still wanted that special connection.
Why Families Keep Coming Back
Some children they met years ago now bring their own little ones to visit. That’s the kind of impact we hope to make, a tradition that lives in a family’s memory.
Santa C and Mrs. Claus notice the shy ones. They remember names. They speak with gentle voices and carry a warmth that people feel instantly. And they prepare. Every visit is personal. Every word is meant. That’s what makes the difference.
We’re proud members of the International Brotherhood of Real Bearded Santas (IBRBS), Idaho Santas, and the Worldwide Santa Network. But more than anything, we’re proud of the trust families and communities have placed in us.
The Warmth That Stays Long After the Snow Falls
The Christmas season only comes once a year, but the feeling of being remembered, welcomed, and part of something bigger—that can last much longer. That’s the heart of what we do.
When you invite us into your space, we carry that responsibility with care and joy. Because to us, Christmas is never just a performance. It’s something real.
We’d be honored to bring that feeling into your home, classroom, church, or community.
There are only so many December days — let’s make one of them unforgettable.
