Last night, Mommy, Daddy, Peyton and Tyler (Nolan was out of town at church camp) took me to a way-cool Chinese New Year Celebration. Mommy just found out about it yesterday from her blog-friend, Missy, and they actually got to meet in person at the event. You have to go see beautiful Paige on her blog. After they got to talking, they realized that they have many friends in common, including Amy Lafayette! Anyway, I just loved being a part of all the excitement. Here I am getting all dressed up in my Chinese silk (thank you for my beautiful dress, Tish ;)) and squeekie shoes...and I admit it, I was feeling kinda cute, okay?! I mean, it's about to be Chinese New Year and I was gettin' my party on...
Okay, Okay, y'all think I'm cute, too. Well, I'm ready to get this party started!
When we got there, the first thing I saw were lots of my beautiful Chinese brothers and sisters...
Then, when I got to my table, you will never believe who was there! D.O.R.O.T.H.Y., Elmo's pet goldfish!!!! At my table!! And a couple of Dorothy's friends!! At my table!!
Well, I didn't know how it could get any better than that until I heard drums, and music coming from the back and then I saw the Chinese dragon and lion dancers coming...
This is my new Chinese friend speaking to me in Mandarin and Mom is just prayin' I remember some of it...
And more random fun...
Well, I had a blast! We saw lots of old friends, and made lots of new ones, and I'm feeling like I've got more lo mein, fried rice, and fortune cookies in my near future! Life is gooood!
Wo Ai Ni!!
