But every once in a while a special event comes along, and the Indotronix holiday party is one of them.

We used to work in the corporate world years ago; it was long hours, pitiful pay and little thanks.  But these guys really treat their team like family and it shows.

They go all out with a smorgasbord buffet of Indian and Italian food, gifts of wine and chocolate for the grown ups, presents for the kids.  They even had a puppet show featuring Grover, Ernie, Burt and Barney for the little ones.

Check out the kids playing with the puppet spider in this photo.

These kids are so darn cute!  We danced, we hokey pokey-ed (yes, there is an occasional time when we can bust out some cheese in the appropriate environment) we sang and clapped our hands.

The little ones make me want to be a kid again.  Heck, they remind me that I am a kid.

That’s what the holiday spirit is supposed to be all about.  And that’s why I am so grateful that we were able to revisit our friends at Indotronix once again.  Happy Holidays!

It was a pleasure to celebrate with such a tight knit group of co-workers, spouses and friends.  When we learned that Meatloaf’s “Paradise By the Dashboard Light” was their signature song, we knew these guys liked to PARTY.

But it wasn’t all just about the amazing door prizes being raffled off or shaking it on the dance floor.  Incoming President Greg Burns expressed his gratitude at climbing aboard the “Kirchhoff Express” and reminded us all to be grateful for what we have, especially in these times when so many people are suffering.

They danced to Lady Gaga and Mustang Sally, Journey and Lynyrd Skynyrd.  They enjoyed the Grandview’s decadent Italian Dessert Table.  There was no stopping them.

The holidays are the perfect time to reflect on what’s important.  And then, of course, it’s time to celebrate!  That’s where Jeff and me and entertainers all over the world come in.

I’m taking an example from the Kirchhoff Consigli team: work hard, play hard and give thanks.

Happy Holidays!
