HAPPY NIU YEAR!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Dear relatives and friends,
Here's wishing you all a happy and Ox-picious Niu Year.
Leen leen kou sing.
And for the children: Fai kou cheong tai.
Couldn't wait for midnight last night, so slept early, after a very full reunion dinner. Angie and Sam came over for dinner too. Yes, we get to Loh Hei in Australia too and it's in the middle of the table. See? The kids had a full day yesterday so they slept soundly last night. Bryan was the first one to wake up, at 7am. Boy oh boy, I was too tired to get up... slept on for another hour but woke up with a headache. Made tong yuen for the family... what a sweet way to start the new year. The kids had fun making the tong yuens. Bryan calls them "dinosaur eggs". He didn't eat them, of course. After a bit, Caitlyn decided it was too "stretchy" for her to enjoy.
In line with tradition, we all decked out in red today. Even Mother's PJs are red! Bryan is all in red too... including his jocks.. he got bitten by mosquitoes while they were out playing with bubbles... so it's double redness for him.
