Well, we celebrated a little out of order this year! February is busy for us as there's Valentine's Day, Cooper's birthday, and now Chinese New Year! Since we are adding a child from China, one of the things we want to do is try to teach her at least a little bit about her culture and the country she is from. The most important Chinese holiday is Chinese New Year...so now we'll be celebrating it too!
This year we didn't do a whole lot. I put up a few decorations, then we had my parents and Laura's family over for a Chinese dinner.
Here are the very simple decorations :). Next year instead of a picture on the table, Claire will be here!!!

I made this at a pinterest party right before Chinese New Year (it's now in Claire's room) so it was a perfect little decoration!
The one "baking" thing I did was make fortune cookies out of fruit roll-ups. Quite tasty actually and the kids thought they were fun. The rest of the meal was frozen from Costco. :) They make the best food!!
