The Band

This could be the cover for their first single... hee hee
This picture is wrong (technically) in so many ways but I love it. I was fooling around with settings and didn't even realized I got this. They were warming up for their performance.

A few weeks ago the littles had a performance with their Chinese school for Chinese New Year. Their class was second on stage and they were SO cute.
Lily was in her glory... she LOVES to be on stage. She was moving, grooving, and playing her guitar. It was awesome.
Ty wasn't thrilled about the idea of performing with his class of 3 girls... until I reminded him that he would be 1 handsome boy with 3 pretty girls.... that seemed to convince him.
He did a great job and did all moves.
The crowd loved this little group!!!!!!



These are their famous guitars.... made with the help of dad, mom, and Grandma G.
The littles did all the decorating.




Their teacher chose this song for them.....moves and all....
WARNING..... it is a catchy little tune. We are still singing it and I wonder if it will ever leave my head. Lily suggested that maybe it should just leave my mouth.
Then she laughed and started singing it.... Ty joined in.... that was followed by them doing all the moves.

Happy 5th Birthday Lily Feifei

Lily's birthday.......

Preschool starts 1 hour late with snow delay... Lily relieved that she will get to pass out her Valentine's cards, eat cupcakes that we made, and celebrate her birthday at school.
Grandma Glenda was also here. Lily was more than excited that Grandma was going to help us out at school.

Lily proud of her cake with 5 candles.... they decorate these at the beginning of the school year....

Lily thought she was SOOO cool.... each student has this at their snack seat for their birthday

Her PONY Valentine cards..... she keeps hinting that she is READY to ride a pony.....
on her own... NO help... She wants to ride in the field behind our house....

At preschool......After a delay (that really throws off a bunch of 4 & 5 year olds),
Valentine partying, birthday celebrating, and TOO MUCH sugar....


Home to take it easy.....

Next a little birthday celebration with Grandma Glenda, Grandma N., and Grandpa N.
The party was complete with Chinese take out.

Lily LOVES Mulan and reminded me over and over how nice a Mulan party would be.

LILY MULAN.... her words....

Birthday cupCAKE....
Lily and I love this new cake pan that makes a GIANT cupcake....
Ty says... I like that REALLY big cupcake momma...

When she was blowing out her 5 candles I thought to myself... how can she be 5 ALREADY.....It seems like yesterday she turned 2 (her first birthday at home)
A few lanterns....
