So, it's been over a month since our last blog update. And we've been social butterflies. This year we went to two Lunar New Year parties. The truly wonderful thing about the parties this year is the fact that the girls had great times playing with all their little friends, and not clinging to DoT or I. That was a nice change from parties of the past.
Here are a few pictures from one of the parties. (I know I took my camera to the second party, too, but I can't seem to find any of my pictures from it.)
First, A climbing through a tunnel...
Next, both girls riding a toy horse...
And finally, the couch shot that needs to be taken anytime we have a get together...
Also this month, we had a visit from DoT's cousin Devan. The girls took to him right away, and were sorry to see him go. For the next couple of days they kept asking where Devan was and didn't really seem to understand why he'd want to go off back to school instead of staying to live with them. :-)
The other big news around here is that we are finishing our basement (or at least part of it). We've been wanting to do that for awhile, but haven't gotten to it. But push finally came to shove and we decided that it really is time to reclaim the house from all the toys that seem to have taken over it. So we're building (well I guess actually our contractors are building) a playroom, washroom and guest bedroom in the basement.
Well, that's it for tonight. I'll close off with the photo that went out on our Chinese New Year cards this year (which some of you have therefore already seen)..
Happy Year of the Rat!
K..
