New Traditions

We are starting a new tradition this year of doing one themed meal a month. Joshua was in charge of the first month and he wanted a Chinese dinner. It was also the Chinese new year which made is really easy to find decorations for it. The overall theme is the color red which is a lucky color in China.
This year is the year of the dragon.
Ready to eat. We also had our nephew Devin in town for the weekend. He came in to help Shaun build his shed. The man in charge.I found colored fortune cookies.Each kid got a red envelope with money inside with their named written on it in Chinese writing. We all ate with chopsticks. We had egg rolls, pot stickers, rice, and fruit. It was a lot of fun. Stayed tuned - Mom's in charge of the dinner next month.
