Year of the Golden Pig

The local FCC (Families with Children From China) chapter put on a really nice Chinese New Year celebration dinner. We took a half hour shift at the children's craft table (see our piggie skills to the right...Bobby said my pig looks snobby) while my parents milled around the silent auction tables. The proceeds from the night are going to the Ronald McDonald House and A Heart For China.

While we ate Hunan Mahi Mahi and Terriaki chicken, we chatted with a family at our table who brought their beautiful little girl home about three years ago. And, another couple who in a few short months is bringing toddler twins home.

The evening ended with singing, ribbon dancing, the lion dance, and a lot of dreaming about our future daughter. We're still hanging onto the hope we'll see her picture May or June.

As far as the pictures go...this is all we took! Of course my parents are already used to the grandparents role and took a slew more...so once they share them with me, I'll add more--assuming we're cute in them of course.

I like the attire for the evening- how cute. Your dads tie is cool!
(Hi Janelle and Rick)
Did you like "Little Miss Spider" and the other book?

Looks like a fun party, and I love how excited your parents are already. (that's how mine were, and still are).

Happy 15 months! Hope a referral is coming soon!
