Chinese New Year – Welcome year of the Pig

Today we celebrated Chinese New Year with our “Bamboo Bunch”, group of local families who have adopted from China.   The kids had time to play together and do crafts before dinner.   After dinner we were entertained with a Lion dance.  R remembered the Lion dance from last year and was quite nervous.   Daddy kept reassuring her that he would warn her before it started.  She was very fortunate to have a chance to touch the lion before the dance began.  It also helped that she could see the drummer.  She did very well during the dance.   She loved the chance after to play on the drums with her friend G!!
