Chinese New Year

I found these amazing flowers at the store this week, and they just made me so incredibly, I bought them and they have been a part of our Chinese New Year celebration. We got  fortune cookies, almond cookies, and we even got a Luna New Year cake, but more on that later. We ordered Chinese food from a place called Ric Wok, it was only okay.

When ordering Chinese, we never know how much to get.

After dinner, we headed over to the mall, where we took pictures by these huge celebratory signs.

A Librarian at the Orem Public Library told us about it, and we were stoked to check it out.

My favorite part were these huge stings of lanterns cascading down from the windows above.

It took almost no time for Lucas to loose interest, and Karl to start taking selfies.
