It's the year of the tiger (see extremely scary tiger face above!) and we brought it in with fine company this year.
Last night we thoroughly enjoyed the hospitality of our dear friends, Heng & Jenny. There were also a few other couples and Lilah had lots of little ones to keep her entertained and running around, until 11pm, I might add!
When she woke up from her nap earlier in the day, she donned her qípáo, got her hair curled (which she absolutely LOVED!) and excitedly proclaimed that she was "Doing (going) to a parteee"! She was SO SO excited! She gathered up all her red envelopes that we filled with Laura Secord chocolate hearts and put them in her little bag to give to her friends. Oh it was so much fun!
Thanks for everything guys, the delicious food and company was second to none.
I took the pictures above after Church today. There are a few more here.
Happy New Year! I LOVE the pictures and I LOVE the black dress, I will have to remember that color for my Lilah's next one! It looks great on your Lilah and I love her curly hair.
ReplyDeleteHappy CNY! These photos are stunning, I love that black dress and she is adorable in her curls! I'm hoping to celebrate way more next year than we got to this year.
ReplyDeleteGin =)
Happy New Year! Love Lilah and her curled hair.
ReplyDeleteLove the picture with the lantern as well.
Her curls are a day old in these pictures, so they're just about fallen out. They were so cute though.
ReplyDeleteShe asked for them again this morning for Church! But I didn't have time!
Gung Hay Fat Choy to your family from ours!
ReplyDeleteWe had a great day yesterday...went to the Chinatown CNY parade in Chicago.
BTW, your little tiger face girl is just too cute, and not the least bit scary!
Lilah looks adorable in her qi pao. Happy Chinese New Year!!
