The EastIdahoNews.com team is busy helping a local Secret Santa give $1 million to deserving people in eastern Idaho this holiday season.
Twyla is a very creative and compassionate person who is committed to building community wherever she goes. She teaches art classes to students of all ages -- from preschoolers to retirees -- and volunteers for many organizations. She is genuine and generous.
Nine years ago, Twyla started a holiday tradition with her three young sons called "Cocoa for a Cause." They sell hot chocolate and homemade treats to raise money for others in need. Many individuals and charitable organizations have benefited from their generosity, such as The Family Crisis Center, International Rescue Committee and several food pantries.
Twyla is a wonderful cook and shares her talents with everyone. Unfortunately, after baking thousands of goodies, her overworked oven died a few days ago. After all of that baking, maybe it just finally gave up. But Twyla didn't give up. In order to continue the tradition of giving, she's resorted to using other people's ovens.
Secret Santa asked the East Idaho News elves to surprise Twyla and there was a twist! Check out the video in the player above.

I love how you’re running behind her grabbing the oils and what nots, Nate. You’re so helpful and caring.❤
I totally agree...Nate...that was so fun and awesome watching you help them fill their carts!!! God Bless secret Santa!!! Just such a FUN Secret Santa!!!! :)❤❤❤
It was so heartwarming to see them all enjoy it ..such kindness
That was awesome, getting the things she needed but was passing up for higher value items.
Peggy was helping too! Bless her heart!!
2 minutes! So short!
Watching Secret Santa is like getting a Christmas present every day.
Yes! 🎉🎉🎉
Yes!!
This comment needs to be on the top.
it is like advent calendar - new sweet story every day
M&Ms? Let's just take the box,wonderful vid for a very deserving lady,stay safe
God bless the Secret Santa for all of the people who Santa has helped!
I agree. The grief was so raw. I’m not sure if much is given offline that the viewers never see. If so the families of the young couple should have been given offline. It was so distressing and sad.
Yes may God bless him and his family and the East Idaho team and their families with blessings tenfold
So much fun. She looks like such a seeet lady!
Satan disagrees.
This made me cry!!
In spite of what the media would have us believe - goodness is alive and flourishing in the world.
True. Unfortunately, the media always goes with "If it bleeds, it leads." It's about time to start sharing good things happening instead of always focusing on the bad.
Ummmm, East Idaho News IS the media.
Yes Jesus is alive and still bringing joy to the world 🦋
Props to the service staff on this one.
Gee Wizz- That female checkout operator was FAST!! Wish she could train the snails at our supermarket!
After the heartbreaking but lovely gift this morning to the families of the young lovers that past away, this was a more uplifting vid. We cant have a baker without a working oven.
passed away. can't, contraction of "can not".
When the mother of the daughter started crying, I was too, and had to turn the video off. Yes this was so uplifting after that prior video.
Love it. .
@@dougadams9419Really Unnecessary...
Amen, very well said. I was thinking that too but I didn’t come near getting my point across. Thank you.
I was laughing as I watched Nate filling in her cart. This was such a joyful and fun Secret Santa Surprise.
Same! I was smiling early on as Peggy was picking up extra bits for the husband's trolley in the first two minutes, then ended up fully laughing as they broke all the rules by extending the time, then giving up with a timer, all while Nate was loading armfuls of extras into the trolleys for them! 😂
It says a lot about them as a couple, though, doesn't it? That they had all that extra time and help, and still spent less than half of the allocated amount. Clearly not greedy people, making this even more deserved 💕
I know right? I laughed so much!!! Nate is a trip!
I’m currently sick with a virus, and I cannot tell you how much joy this video has given me! Thank you Secret Santa, Nate, and all the crew!
So sorry to hear that! Hoping you will be so much better before Christmas Day..let's hope right now!, so that you can get what you been wanting to do, before!! Blessings ✨️ and a Merry Christmas 🎄
Just wanted to "second" @59Alaskan's comment 💖
Get well soon! Hope that you manage to still have a great Christmas, with love from the UK 💕🇬🇧
I know....I had a Horrible, No Good, Very bad day, yesterday and today, and this was what I needed to watch to get out of my miserable mood.
Hope you feel better soon! I see alot of people online say they aren't feeling well so bugs are going around right now! ☹️
Get well !!! That's an order 😉
This was soooooo much fun to watch! I think Nate had more fun than anyone else!
I agree. Some of these Secret Santa stories are heart breaking. A few months ago Nate was covering the Chad Vallow/Daybell trial (murdered children) so he deserves a little break from the more serious stories.
Yeah, he kept going even after the time was up. He’s so much fun.
Nate: What is your favorite candy bar?
Husband: Reese's Peanut Butter Cup
Nate: *dumps entire box onto conveyer belt*
Husband:
👁👄👁
Can you imagine being lucky enough to have a job where you are paid to bring joy and happiness to others? Nate (and his team) are very fortunate.
They are very lucky, but I think they sacrifice a lot to make it happen. This is very, very time consuming, and they never let on how exhausting it must be to squeeze in these trips, some of which are a couple hours each way.
Let’s not forget the horrific things Nate and East Idaho News has had to report on these last several years…. Vallow, Daybell, the 4 students. I am happy they get to do some heartwarming reports as well! Bravo Team EIN!!!
@@montananerd8244 but if you love your job then it doesn't feel like a sacrifice IMO -- and I think Nate is one that LOVES his job.
I love how you “broke” the rules and said to heck with the time limit… and also helped shop… what fun!! Thank you Secret Santa!!! ❤️🎄🎅💚
That was totally fun!!! Thanks for the change of pace and for giving to the givers!!!
I LOVE how Nate jumps in and helps put stuff in their cart. And still when times up, gives her more stuff. 🙂
He’s the BEST Elf. 🎉
Yeaaaah! ❤😄😄😄
Lol the timer is over and Nate doesn't care 😂 He's like "Is there anything else you need? Here, get the big one. Here put this in the cart too." He's so kind lol
It's more looks like, just fill it to the brim and no time limits. Lol
I usually don't comment, but Twila and her husband were so cute. They were so appreciative and thoughtful, loved all the cookie supplies. Bless them.
What a fun trip. Thank you Nate and Santa.
mY NERVES WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO HANDLE IT! 😲😱🤭
That nate guy is so cool. He was literally helping them fill the shopping carts.
I was like wow! Look at him load their carts too! Even at the end, he asked what their favorite candy bars were and put the entire container on the belt!
How humble they where to pick up items so that Ethan needed to help them loading it up and give them an extra minute. I love that kind of attitude.
That was a fun one. And everyone helping to grab as much as possible.
Excellent! Loved Nate just adding and adding to the carts! Thank you Secret Santa for your continued generosity, and kindness! ❤❤❤
you can tell theyre great people because theyre not clearing shelves, they needed to be given extra time because theyre not in a rush to get the most out of it. What a sweet heart
And really taking what they need and use instead of going for the most expensive items. Very cool.
Indeed....these folks are not "takers", but givers. I was smiling all the time.
Nate, the Secret Santa is the support here, for the recipients, but YOU are the spirit of this entire project we all need during these holidays!!!
I think Nate had and even better time helping fill up the shopping cart with the couple. May God continue to Bless this family, Secret Santa, and all the crew at East Idaho News.
This is my favorite Secret Santa this year! Warms my heart watching people not expecting such generous gifts receive them. Merry Christmas All!
I think Nate had more fun than anybody else good job merry Christmas everybody
The shopping sprees are like a dream for me ..this was so warm and fun so nice 🙂 thank you secret Santa
What a happy story/gift! I'm so happy for Twila and her family!
Nice of Nate to remember us Aussies , Didnt forget the Tim Tams.
Aren’t they are NZ biscuit 😊
Outstanding! That was fun! Congratulations! Thank you Secret Santa! ❤🎉🙌
I love watching these awesome videos. I love the Secret Santa for his amazing generosity.
this couple is so lovingly genuine folks; so happy that they got nominated 😊
What a beautiful blessing! Thank you Jesus!
Now, after that tough tough one from this morning... this was just what we needed. A really fun bunch of gifts for such a wonderful couple. That shopping trip was a joy and they were being so courteous and not grabbing everthing. Super one to watch and when you gave that extra £1,500 at the end that smile was so worth it.
Bravo to you all.
This warms my heart so much. Made me Smile, laugh and cried. Thank you so much Secret Santa. Made my day!!
I'm saying it again, I love Secret Santa!
Wow! The shopping trip was a wonderful idea! All in three minutes!!
Wow!! What fun!! What a great grocery store; the check-out lady was really sweet in her holiday clothes!!
Wow! Such a deserving family! Thank you Secret Santa for blessing all the selected families this holiday season.
You have the best job. Thank you to whoever the secret santa is.
This was so friggin awesome!! More shopping sprees are needed ❤
Agreed!
Lovely family,well done ,you deserve it ❤😊
A BIG THANK YOU to Secret Santa for everything you have done and continue to do.
To NATE, The Team and Whole News Station THANK YOU for ALL your hard work.
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO EVERYONE 🎅🌲🦌⛄
They are such sweet people 🇨🇦🫡🇺🇲 so much respect
That video was so much fun! Makes me happy that she does so much for her community.
Use of the new oven and a lot of the baking supplies will be used to make money for local charities! What a family!
That was brilliant !!!
Oh I just loved this so much!!!! How fun!!! Thank you, Secret Santa and Nate and his team!!!!
Just saying to me this was one of the better one's they had so much fun enjoy watching them on their shopping spree.😊😊
I Love How Nate and The Crew Helped ❤😊
exciting video..I was cheering this couple on.....
This was one of my favourite secret Santa gifts! I loved how Nate was grabbing extra stuff for them. It shows what kind of people they are in that they were seemingly being polite and selecting just a couple of each item they wanted.
Thank you secret Santa - not only for the joy it brings to the recipients but also to those whose watch every year. Thank you to Nate and EIN. Love from 🇨🇦
I just commented something very similar regarding the fact that they were not taking a whole lot of items even though between the two of them they could have probably covered the entire store and emptied a lot of shelves but they definitely seem to intentionally take less rather than more
It’s so beautiful what Secret Santa does for so many people in Idaho. A true blessing for all! ❤️
That was awesome. Glad for this family. God bless you Nate and secret Santa.
Thank you Nate and your team
I’m watching this 4months later and still enjoy secret Santa video of kindness. Bless all of you throughout 2024❤❤
I loved the timed all you can grab, then Nate was even more generous by extra time, helping and extra stuff to finish off the spree ! This was epic !!
Tears...but HAPPY ones...This was so much fun to watch, & how nice that someone who is such a "giver" herself, is now on the receiving end...This was a pure joy to watch...EIN, Nate, & the MOST beloved, *Secret Santa,* thank you for your kind & loving hearts! 🎅🏻❤🎄
Thanks Secret Santa! 😊❄🎄⛄
I LOVED this! Such sweet and humble people. So much fun watching them shop. Thank you Secret Santa!
May God bless Secret Santa with $2Million for next year!!!
This was AWESOME!! Such a beautiful joyful gift. Congrats to Secret Santa!! A really feel good video!! HAPPY!!
So often you bring tears to my eyes helping those who need and deserve the love from you all. Thanks so much for reminding me and making Christmas special.
If we are having this much fun and joy by just watching these, imagine how the man behind it all feels . A great privilege!
She seems like such a genuinely kind woman. I hope she feels appreciated for all she has done. Thank you Secret Santa!
Beautiful.... Girl go get your oven 😁 Nate and Team....Great Job!!! ❤
Thank you Secret Santa and East Idaho News!
Secret Santa must receive so much joy watching these deliveries! I know we do. Thank you!
You have two minutes. You have three minutes. Then Nate, God bless you, you start running and filling the cart as well. Even at the checkout, you are picking up extra goodies. You, my friend, are an Angel on Earth. And of course, the benevolent Secret Santa. God bless you all. Merry Christmas and a long and happy life. You’ll never know how much you have healed my heart. I have to go and compose myself now. After all, we Brits have a stiff upper lip to maintain lol. Merry Christmas to one and all, wherever you are 🧑🏻🎄🎄
I'm surprised you didn't break the cash register!! 😅🤣😂😍🥰
Love how Nate added the candy, lol.
Such a great surprise for a deserving lady. Props to Nate for being a Tim Tam man!
Well I’m crying happy tears. God bless Nate and his crew and Secret Santa.
This was awesome! I have no doubt that Twila will spread the love!
You’re a good dude, Nate, and your Secret Santa is my legit hero.
she has such a sparkling personality... may your cookies never burn ❤
one of the best secret Santa I have seen....GREAT JOB.
I love that they only grabbed a few of each meat they wanted. They were considerate of others and practical in their choices.
I didn't think of that. Thank you for posting 👏💯
How was not grabbing a lot of each item being "considerate of others?" Would others have to do without if they took a lot? The store would just refill the shelves. They spent too much time running from place to place instead of finding a spot and loading up on they could store and easily add to cart (spices, tuna fish, peanut butter, chicken breasts, canned stew, etc). Two people running around for 3 minutes and only getting $1,478 isn't very good. They had the total bumped up, so it worked out ok. If they didn't do so poorly I doubt the station would have bumped up the total.
@@walte153 there is not always stock available to just put some things out on the shelves. There is also no reason to grab hundreds of dollars of meats and frozen items that you will have nowhere to put them when you get home. Take what you need, not what you want. It says a lot about someone’s character when they display this as a normal behavior.
@@brucew7062 Nope. I don't think they brought them to a store with near empty shelves. The store is being paid for what is bought. Who said she had to only grab meats and frozen goods... or any at all? How about pet food, razor blades, tuna fish, spices, corned beef, cans of ham, and more. No freezing necessary. Sometime realism should enter the picture. They could be "nice" and next week wonder why their kids are hungry again.
I loved this one -- how fun
What a fun video! ❤️
Now that's a secret Santa surprise with a twist! So nice and lovely to look at! God bless!🎉
I think Nate is one of the nicest human beings on this planet and he has such a kind and lovely way with people.
Nate, thank you for this video. I cried for an hour this am, for those poor parents. I actually was saying, “Hurry up! Go for the steaks!” This was fun. And the couple were so sweet and charming.
You give me hope!! I’ve been living in my Honda Civic since August and don’t have a job yet. I watch you all the time and I just know 2024 will be better. I never give up and recently had a seasonal job with Operation Christmas Child in Atlanta for four weeks. I try to keep giving even when I have needs. I’m a widow and the last year has been challenging. God is my helper and Secret Santa brings me joy!!! Keep up the work of the Lord!!!

I wish for you a windfall of your own: easier times, a beautiful place to live, a job you want that pays you well, and anything and everything else your big heart desires. Thinking of you. Happy Merry Christmas Holidays and a fab New Year in 2024❣️
🎄🎉🎆💫💖
Blessings upon you. Email Nate next year an update on your circumstances?
I love when nice people are treated with amazing kindness.
The beauty of Secret Santa is that he teaches us to give what we can. Simple things like a compliment or an encouraging word. “Bless me much that I may be a blessing”
That's one beautiful & wonderful Couple & Family...God bless them all immensely ...
That was fun hope she got all that she needed.❤
Santa & Nate are 'on point' with this one! So well deserved.
I’m a old, grumpy disabled Veteran and these wonderful stories always brings tears of joy rolling rolling down my cheeks. God Bless these Secret Santas for their amazing generosity. Merry Christmas!❤🙏
Thank you for your service sir 👏
@@ariellesoullighting4309 Thank you very much. I was honored to be able to serve this great country for many years.🙏🇺🇸
This is awesome! Nate and his elfs are so helpful and kind! Thank you Secret Santa for having such a giving heart and blessing so many people! Merry Christmas and love to all from East Tennessee ❤
I am thinking that Secret Santa wishes he could have been helping in person with the "2 minute" (extended) shopping spree! It was such a fun part of the video to watch--especially how Nate and the rest of the staff helped, too!! What a wonderful uplift to my day! Thanks, Secret Santa, Nate and East Idaho News! I always watch (and often re-watch) the numerous uplifting, "Giving" stories East Idaho News gives us.
Thank you Secret Santa for putting a smile on my face. This couple was so precious. ❤️
I am at home, terribly sick with Covid and this just brightened my day! 💛✨ Wishing everyone warmth and joy!
I hope your covid wasn't too bad and you don't have lingering symptoms
Get well soon.
Hope you get well soon
i have been addicted to these EIN Christmas videos for years. I am always amazed at how genuinely humble and grateful all these people are. You have a lot to be proud of there in Idaho. Merry Christmas!
This was so fun to watch!!! How exciting for that couple❤
How wonderful Secret Santa. You are all amazing. I couldn't stop crying. What a lovely lady so deserving. ♥️
That was fun! Nice to support someone who does so much for others.
I love everything about this. Such a fun idea!
May God bless Secret Santa even more so that he can surprise even more people! 😀
$500 would be so meaningful but with those !!!!! my heart is exploding with envy!
Secret Santa thank you for bringing so much joy to their hearts as well as ours. May your crown in heaven be filled with jewels. May God bless you and Nate and crew for making this crappy world a better place.
I just cannot believe this. What a great person this Secret Santa is. Wish we had one here. Thank you Nate and East Idaho News for bringing us these terrific stories.
