Chinese New Year FCFCC 2023 Year of the Rabbit

We attended our local FCFCC Chinese (Lunar) New Year and brought a LEGO basket for the silent auction.
We haven't been to one is a while, so few families are interested even though there are many Chinese adoptees in the area (hundreds). Most who were adopted in the mid-90's are in college, grown up!
Very enjoyable evening, the FCFCC Board did a wonderful job!
