Chinese New Year 2009

Emma in her Chinese Outfit!
Chinese New Year is a big deal to the Chinese. Every year the families who have adopted from Small World Adoption agency get together on this occasion. Last year was a bigger year than this one but, there were still a lot of Chinese children running all over the place.
Nyah and Melody with Megan and Joy.
Joy was Nyah's foster sister in China. She was adopted by Jim and Megan Andrews who live in Spokane, Washington.
Kathleen is another little girl that was adopted from China. She was adopted by a family in our church.

Jim and Megan with Joy. Joy didn't want to look at the camera so I put one of each on.

Nyah and Emma had fun running around like wild children. The more sugar they had the more they ran.

Joy, Nyah and Emma

Joy seems to remember Nyah better than Nyah remembers Joy. I am not sure if this is because Nyah is avoiding or what. Nyah still will not look at Joy. We are going to have more frequent get together';s to help them stay friends.
