Happy Chinese New Year!!!
We just wanted to wish all of our family and friends a very Happy Chinese New Year, February 18th officially marks the "year of the pig". Mike and I attended the Children's Bridge New Years Celebration in Markham this Year along with my sister-in-law, her husband and our two nieces! We had a lot of fun, the girls got to make a lot of crafts (so did Mike!), we ate some traditional food and then watched some cultural performances and of course the Lion Dance - which was great! It was really nice to see everyone with their children - especially all of the new babies!! - it makes it seem more real and it does wonders for boosting our spirits, especially considering the long wait still ahead. I have posted some pictures form the CB New Year celebration and then of course what would a Chinese celebration be without a trip to the Mandarin for the dumpling festival!!!
