Gung Hay Fat Choy!!

Hannah and I were invited to join friends for our very first Chinese New Year celebration! Russ, Leslie and Beckett were in our China travel group so are very special friends! They also invited our friend Norma and her husband too as Norma was in China with us and she and I also know Russ through work. It was really neat how Russ and I met and you can read about it here.

We met at a great Chinese restaurant in Toronto and feasted on a delicious meal of dim sum. It was so good to sit around the table and talk about our time in China as well as get caught up on life since returning home with the babies. Hannah and Beckett were the 2 youngest babies in our group and Beckett's 1st Birthday was yesterday so we celebrated with her! Only 2 short weeks until Hannah's 1st Birthday. **sniff!**

When we had finished our lunch it was time for the dragon dance.

I wondered how Hannah would react to the dragon but she did very well! She was content for us to stay back from it but really it didn't bother her at all.
Here she is checking him out. Once he had passed us she could even clapped and danced!



Gung Hay Fat Choy!! Happy year of the tiger!
