Gong Xi Fa Cai
















This year we attended our agency's annual Chinese New Year celebration. We had heard that it was big, but WOW was it ever. Up to 1000 people attend each year. The families that organize this party really think of everything. They have a beautiful lunch buffet, vendors, entertainment, and a variety of activities for the kids to enjoy. We really enjoyed getting together with our friends that traveled with us to China. This event does a great job celebrating our children's shared history and culture. The boys and girls looked beautiful in their silk garb and thoroughly enjoyed themselves today. As parents, we took pride in watching our children embrace the music, dance, and food of China. It was sooooo wonderful to reconnect with some of the families in our travel group. It was very busy in the banquet hall, so it was nice to wind down the afternoon with some playtime in the lobby. Here the boys really got to engage in rough play, tag, and general fits of laughter. I can't wait until we get to do it all over again next year. Sign us up!
