FCC CNY Dinner
Gong Xi Fa Cai! We had so much fun last year we thought we'd go again. Funny story... for some reason I put this in my phone calendar for the Saturday two weeks earlier than the actual date. Yes, we drove all the way to LA, parked, did some quick shopping, and made our way to the restaurant to find out we were there exactly 14 days too soon. Oops.

Anywho, two weeks later on the right day we headed back in to LA. Again, it was a great night! We were lucky to be able to enjoy the evening with friends. The LA FCC is a large one and the dinner is attended by hundreds of people. It really is a lot of fun with a lion dance, magician and Georgie's favorite the Chinatown Queen and her Princesses! Georgie loved being at this event. Its clear that she feels a kinship with all the other little girls, dressed in pretty qi pao with families that look like hers.

Fun, fun!

The princesses danced with the girls for a long time. Its hard to imagine how they managed it wearing those Lady Gaga heels. They are absolutely adored by the little girls who would hardly let them go when it was time for them to leave.

 Georgie and all the girls waiting anxiously for the bubble wrap "fireworks" to be completed.

CNY Preschool style
Georgie's school always makes a big deal out of Chinese New Year. G loves it, of course. We were lucky with the weather this year... it was a classically beautiful SoCal day. Most of the kids dressed in traditional Chinese clothing, songs were sung, there was a lion dance and, to top it all off, lots of yummy food! It was a nice day.
