Chinese New Year


Here are some pictures of all the kids dressed up for the Chinese New Year party with the local Families with Children From China group.  The party was on February 23.  I bought these silk outfits when I was in China, and it was a challenge to find one for each child in the color they requested.  They all loved their outfits but the sizing was another matter.  Jose's pants were so short that I (mean mom) about fell over laughing, but his shirt fit, so he just wore jeans with it.  Catherine's dress was too big, and I could barely stuff Therese into hers.  She has grown so much since I bought that dress in China!  She loved the dress, even though it clashed with her red casts.
