Mini Celebrations

Today was about mini celebrations. The first celebration was for Chinese New Year at a festival in Chinatown. Mama, Grandma Le and Auntie Phuong beared the cold and took kiddoes to watch the annual Lion and Dragon Dances for Chinese New Year. Even though it was cold and dreary, the kids were still able to enjoy themselves.

Once Mama and Baby Girl got home from the Festival, Daddy had another surprise for his girls. He made hand-dipped chocolate covered strawberries for Mama and Chloe to enjoy for an early Valentine's celebration. What a way sweet surprise!
