Lunar New Year Celebration

The Two Dragons

ThatKellieGirl celebrated the Chinese New Year in Chinatown yesterday.  There was a parade (ThatKellieGirl loves a parade :) ), a traditional Dragon Dance and Lion Dance as well as an awesome fire cracker display.  There also were DC high school marching bands, beauty queens and elected officials to bring in the New Year.  The Chinese consolidated Benevolent Association (CCBA), an umbrella organization representing thirty Chinese-American organizations throughout the Greater Washington area, hosted the event.  Check out my pics below.  Enjoy!

Freedom Friday: Happy Chinese New Year

Hello Lovelies!

This Monday, millions of people began ringing in the Lunar New Year.  In DC, the new year will be celebrated on Sunday in Chinatown. 2012 is the year of the dragon. The year of the dragon is considered to be the luckiest of the Chinese lunar years.  ThatKellieGirl was born in the year of the dragon, so we will see what is in store for the rest of the year.

In the meantime, enjoy this unseasonably warm weather by heading out to some great events this weekend.
