Andy's Birthday!!

Happy Birthday to a wonderful dad and husband!!!  We love you!!!

Chinese New Year

We had a VERY FUN and full Chinese New Year's Eve and Day! What a fun time here!

We started the Lunar New Year's Eve day off at Victory Church where Andy had the privilege of baptizing Little H.


Spent the afternoon with our good friends and neighbors, the Zhaps!  The kids had a BLAST playing games with their kids (who are always so patient and good to them), and we of course had good food and good coffee!

Lots of fun with fireworks thanks to A-Ba!  Don't worry, the kids are watched very closely!

In the evening we went to the home of one of Andy's language helpers and had so much fun with her family (who we met for the first time)!  Here's a picture of the kids lining up to get red envelopes from her.  The kids catch on fast here!  
  
      
New Year's Day we had a "quiet" dinner at home (it was loud outside from all the fireworks, but quiet inside). 
Green onion pancakes...yummy!
And Chinese dumplings...also yummy!

This is just a fun picture!  Ike loves his sparklers!
