The Biggest Snow & Chinese New Year


We had the biggest snow in this year the day before Chinese New Year, Feb, 10th. It took Baba huge effort to open the door to the deck. Wow, the snow was up to my chest!

To Chinese people, they would tell you "A timely snow promises a good harvest" (瑞雪照丰年). To me, a big snow means a big play! Yeah!


My formal snow outfit was left in my preschool. Mama equipped me with my alternative snow outfit, a pair of thick pants, no boots. It means that they probably would cut my snow playing time. So, I had to hurry up to take full advantage of the big snow.

Baba was shoving the snow in our front yard to make an open igloo for me.  I got to help him out.


Wow! Look at this. A big room with an arch door. It was specifically made for me. Let me get in and sit in the room, enjoying the quite time.


Ok, time to get out!


The next day, Feb, 10th, Popo's family treated our family a big meal to celebrate Chinese New Year. It was the year of  snake.


We went to China town, Peach Farm restaurant (小桃源海鲜菜馆). I had Chinese tea with Popo's daughter - in - law.


Look the delicious food! Can we celebrate New Year every day?!
