Nothing beats opening presents first thing in the morning while still in your jammies! Happy Valentine's Day sweetheart!
Once we got dressed, it was time for brunch. Gung Hay Fat Choy! Kayla got to eat Jai for the first time (traditional Chinese New Year dish with rice, noodles, bean sprouts, vegetables, and tofu). It's my favorite! She seemed to like it too.
Someone was anxious to go outside to see the neighbor's doggies. Check out her little Chinese slippers. Aren't they cute?
Then we went out to dinner with the family again, but this time we had Japanese food. For dessert we had chocolate covered strawberries and Valentine's Day cookies. Notice how instead of taking the cookie Auntie May is offering her, Kayla grabs the whole tray! What a little piggy!
Everyone had Monday off for Martin Luther King Day so we had a play date. We all walked from Auntie May's house to the park. There were so many of us, people driving by probably thought it was some kind of Chinese New Year parade!
We stopped along the way because Daniel wanted to pick a dandylion and make a wish. Kayla impatiently waited for him to blow.
Finally, we made it to the park! Adrienne volunteered for swing-pushing duty while the rest of us sat on the bench and relaxed for a minute.
Wee! Going down the slide is fun!
It's even better to slide side-by-side with a buddy!
After all that playing at the park, we deserved a treat so we walked to the yogurt shop. Yummy chocolate!
What were we thinking? Now the kids are on a sugar high and running all around! But they are so cute and fun to watch!
Posing for one last picture before going to the airport to go home. Wow, look at all those lai sees Kayla got (red envelopes stuffed with "lucky" money)! Happy Year of the Tiger!
