On Christmas Eve my wonderful in-laws Mum and Smurf hosted the annual Egbert Christmas party at their church in Salem. Everyone brought yummy soups, bread sticks, rolls, cheese & crackers, and desserts to share and we had a lovely evening catching up, doing a kid and adult gift exchange, playing basketball, and seeing a puppet show put on by some of our nieces and nephew. It was a wonderful night spent with people we love! Below are some pictures of our evening together.
Puppets that were made over 30 years ago that Mumsie found for the kids to play with!

Everyone watching the puppet show
Lots of laughs from this audience!
Presents Mum got for all her kids! No, not cowboy hats…but you wouldn’t know that the way these guys put them to use. These are back braces for those long hours each of these guys spend in their computer chairs at work.
The highlight for Smurf was receiving his coveted Adobe Master Collection which retails on the Adobe site for $2600. Adam was able to get it for $150 with his employee discount and everyone in the family chipped in to buy it for him. He was one happy man!
