Looking at the picture, we did quite a few things specific to Chinese culture

Max continue going to the Kungfu class. Shifu said that he is making progress. But every time I see the bigger kids perform, he still has a long way to go.

The tea time has become a recurring event between father and daughter. I really hope Renee would still sit down and talk over a cup of tea when she becomes a teenager.

Quail Run school had a Chinese New year celebration. Everyone dressed up for the occasion.

I took Max to see a Kungfun tournament in Berkeley. He got bored after an hour so I found a park nearby. It turned out to be a place with a lot of history. The water feature was from early 1900s and only restored in recent years.

We discovered a Chinese cafe where you can order special shaved ice. Renee loves it.

We went to Boomers and waited in a long line for the car track. It took over an hour! Max really liked it though.

Lianxin and the kids went to visit Ashley and her mom and spent the long weekend there.

Max is in the class to learn how to perform on stage. We try to encourage him to speak up and talk louder.
