| My little China doll |
Layla's background is such that we happened to be chosen as possible adoptive parents based on our profile which happened to mention that we celebrated this awesome holiday. (totally random and confusing - i know!) Buca's birth grandfather was born in Hong Kong and thus her heritage is rich in Chinese culture. We celebrated this holiday thanks to kday's sister who had lived in China for a few years.... so long story short it's a tradition that we must keep up! Without the tradition, we wouldn't have Layla!
| Mega awesome decor and food |
| Could this decor get any more radical!? |
| Rita does an outstanding job setting the table and feeding us |
| I'm a Rooster, Layla's an Ox, and Kday's a Ram |
| Our Chinese fortunes are read (I have an awesome story about this for you later!) |
| Hello... it wouldn't be Chinese New Year without Chinese BINGO! |
| Saucy! |
| TO HEALTH, WELTH, AND HAPPINESS! HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR 2011!!!! |

Love it. The Chinese would be all about it -- I don't think you can ever be gaudy enough for them! Red random decor everywhere!
I love Buca's pajamas.
I think our dog is on the fritz.
Wow. That sounds like an amazing party.
Your blog kept talking about Rita- did you mean Margo???? Looks awesome, as always- wish we could have been there to speak Chinese to Layla.
