Happy Chinese New Year!

Last night, we celebrated the Chinese New Year. It is the year of the Snake, so when Adam got home from school, we made some dragon masks and some snakes out of toilet paper rolls. We had fun decorating them and naming them. Both snakes got to join us for dinner. 

 For dinner we had some Lo Mein, Beef and Broccoli Stir Fry, sweet and sour chicken, and fortune cookies for dessert. Adam and Tessa were so excited to use chopsticks at dinner. Daddy gave Adam a quick lesson before we started eating.

 Adam did pretty good picking up the bigger pieces of food. Tessa did her own thing and had us all laughing. Whatever works, I guess! (And notice her plain noodles with parmesan cheese on the side. That's our Tessa Boo.)
