xin nein kuai le!

I may be the last to say it, but may I add my voice to the 1.4 billion people in China and millions more around the world who celebrate the beginning of the Year of the Dog according to the Chinese calendar. We celebrated Chinese New Year for the first time last year and the kids love it. We don't have the stamina to go for 15 days, but we do what we can.
Happy (other) New Year to all.
