Sol Nal - Korean Lunar New Year Party

We headed to Southfield this weekend to celebrate the Korean Lunar New Year with other Korea adoptive families. The kids (mine and others) looked wonderful dressed in their hanboks. The food was DELICIOUS! And the activities were very fun! We even won 4 raffle prizes and chose some really nice things - some books written in English and Hangul and a soft Asian boy baby doll that I have been wanting for Simon - Yay! Here are some photos.....

Anna attempting to use "real" chopsticks - we have trainer ones for her at home Simon LOVED the rice :-)

Family Photo - Anna was distracted by the Korean musical instruments in the front of the room

Anna got to try out some of the fans the dancers used

Simon was sure the drum stick was for eating :-)

Then, he figured out he could make noise with it

He was NOT happy when we took the drumstick away

Anna and I at the tea ceremony

Anna really liked the tea

We all had a great time and can't wait until next year!
