The end of Chinese New Year!

This weekend marked the end of our 2012 Chinese New Year's celebrations! The Chinese really know how to party since they make their holiday last two weeks!
Saturday we had "Chinese school" here at the house. The kids learned a few words and then we did three crafts!

There is just something about children from China, they never want to all sit on the couch and have their picture made! Maybe it will happen when they are 18!

On Sunday we had our COFCC Chinese New Year party! Rusty was able to bybass this years event so he could work.(I still think he was just sleeping!) Jaden and I met up with the Rogers family and enjoyed the food, the show and a little shopping. I was disappointed in the lack of shopping available this year but that is ok since we will be going to China and doing some real shopping later this year!
Jaden loved the lion dance. She watched a few of the kids dance and then informed me that she really needed a nap! We have never made it to the end of the event so Jaden never gets a red envelope. Maybe some day...
