We enjoy having the annual photo taken at the First Coast (FC) Families with Chinese Children (FCC) celebration. Here is last year's post.
I think this is the best part of the celebration, getting the family together.
However, we don't have all the family at this celebration. Partly because of the cost of the FCC event; we only invited our immediate kids (Justin, Leaa and Alyzabeth). I think it is time to make a home-made Lunar New Year celebration and invite all the family. Several groups in the area host smaller celebrations. Maybe 2015 we will add an "at-home" family celebration. It is the year of the sheep and begins February 18th. Jesse may do a lesson on Chinese music, we can plan crafts for the kids and make wonderful Chinese food like the lettuce wraps I was able to make successfully recently! Along with dumplings, fish, rice flour sweet cake, I think we will try it as a big family event....and call it Jesse's birthday party too :)
