To start, we celebrated Chinese New Year at the end of January, but I neglected to put up pictures until now.. I love seeing the kids all dressed up!
At the beginning of the month we went to the Chocolate festival in downtown Glendale - we pretty much wandered the crowds and ate food, including plenty of chocolate! The kids really enjoyed the chocolate covered marshmallows-



Emma turned 4 yesterday! What a lovely 4 year old she's turned into. I love her so much. She's so weird and silly and fun! We had a little b-day party last week with some of her friends from primary and preschool and such. It was a polka-dot themed party and it was a lot of fun to plan and prepare, but lots of work.. I quickly got tired of cutting out polka dots!



Since her actual b-day was yesterday we celebrated with Ben's family at Makutu's Island and then had pizza, cake, and presents over at Grandma's house. Emma also got to try out her new scooter.




I LOVE Valentines Day! We had a great day with a fun Valentines party with our friends and then a really great date in the evening. We went out to dinner without the kiddos and then came home to exchange gifts, watch a movie, and enjoy the chocolate covered strawberries that we had prepared earlier. Yummy!
