Gung Hay Fat Choy with some birthday's thrown in...

We'll start with the birthday's or at least one official one.

You see, my birthday was this past Thursday, Syd's birthday is this coming Thursday and James' birthday is next Thursday.
All exactly a week apart.
I'm really glad Alex's birthday isn't until March.

My dear friends dropped off some beautiful flowers and this delicious cake on my birthday.


Today the grandparents came over for chocolate covered strawberries and cream puffs.  Syd's not really into cake and ice cream.  We'll celebrate more on her actual birthday and have a couple of her friends over next weekend for a pizza/WII party.  

Then it's James' birthday--the big 50!  Not sure yet what we'll do to celebrate that one :-)

Onto Chinese New Year.
Colorado Springs always has a pretty good celebration that we go to every year. 


This is pretty much what he looked like during the entire Lion Dance, he didn't like the music.





 This year for Chinese New Year, Syd wanted to make a home made Chinese meal.  We went to the Asian Market and got all the ingredients for spring rolls, fried rice and lo mein noodles.  We got started on some of it today and she did a great job on the spring rolls!



Happy Year of the Dragon!
