Last Saturday night we celebrated Chinese New Year with "Our China Angels" group! This is an annual event and we also meet once a month for dinner and activities. We cannot wait until Audrey is home to attend these events and play with all the children!



Each year there is a Love Tree Ceremony. Parents and children are given red envelopes to hang on the tree with a donation inside. All proceeds from the Love Tree go directly to help support children growing up in Chinese orphanages, it’s called the Look Project. This year a total of $6,177.00 was raised including a matched donation.
