Happy New Year!!!

Happy New Year.  Today is the Chinese New Year!!!  Friday night we attended the Chinese New Year Party at the Nelson Atkins Museum.  It was a good introduction for the kids to the Chinese heritage and culture!  There was so much to see we actually didn't get around to everything.  Between the Chinese drums, yo-yos and Lion dances the kids were glued!  We also met several other families that night that had adopted also!  The connections and friends we have made through this journey is unbelievable and we can't wait for when we actaully have her here and the many more connections we will make as a family!
