Happy Chinese New Year/Lunar New Year/Spring Festival everyone!! Happy Year of the Tiger!
We have had another quiet Chinese New Year this year (began on February 1st and ends February 15th) - Doug had to travel for work during the first part of it and with the pandemic is still around (though numbers are going down again thank goodness), we decided to be cautious just a bit longer - so no big celebrations. Hopefully things will look more "normal" for us next year.
Per usual, I decorated our house for the occasion...
I found another very pretty qipao dress for Briana and she was sweet to let me take pictures of her wearing it...
Previous years of qipao dresses/outfits...
We did eat Chinese takeout a couple of days before CNY because Doug was going to be out of town for the start of it. When he got back home, we decided to do a small family "non-traditional" CNY celebration at our local Melting Pot...

On CNY Eve, I gave Briana her CNY gifts (including a red envelope)...
My parents sent Briana this really pretty pillow for the holiday (it says "Fearless)...
It was fun to see Google celebrating CNY as well - when someone searched certain CNY related terms, fireworks would pop up on the search engine screen...
So again, happy spring festival to all that celebrate! Valentine's Day usually (not always) crosses with CNY - and that is what is happening this year. Tomorrow is Valentine's Day, so "Happy Heart Day!" early to you all. I'll be blogging about that next!
