Year of the Tiger!





Today marks the beginning of the Chinese New Year. 2010 is the year of the Tiger. We started celebrating last weekend by heading into Boston's Chinatown and met up with Kiana, Melanie and Geno. Today we went out to lunch to a local Chinese restaurant (Mandarin Westborough) and we had a lot of fun. The restaurant gave out "Red Envelopes" to all the kids. During the Chinese New Year, children will receive red envelopes from adults (mostly parents and relatives). The red envelope usually contains money and in turn ensures health and prosperity in the upcoming new year.

Siena had a crisp, new $1 bill in her red envelope!
