Year of the Tiger!

Our first Lunar New Year party was with our local FCC group and they looked so cute in their silks before we left : )

Our family photo tells it all...Annslee is such a party girl and poor Coby our little introvert takes a while to warm to the crowd

Daddy found that the Chinese drum brought smiles finally!

I remember when she was terrified during the Lion Dance but not anymore. She readily fed it her red envelope.

Coby and his daddy had the exact same expression during the lion dance. Too funny!

Fantastic pictures from both events. I see how vibrant the kids look and how much fun they are having and think what a happy life they are living.

I did not know that Annslee was from Hubei. Which orphanage? Miss Talicee is from Tuan Feng. www.tfljourney.blogspot.com. Your children are beautiful.
