Happy Lunar New Year

 
 
 
Today is the Chinese Lunar New Year.
 

 
We read Chinese! The phrase on the firecracker says
"Gong Hey Fat Choy"! 
It means "Wish Everyone A Full Year of Prosperity"!

 
 
 

It's the Year of Rooster.

  Rooster is crowing, we will be getting up very early all year round to go to rabbit shows.
