Chi Pow


Now let me preface this post by saying I have no idea how Chinese words are actually spelled. Ray will tell me the Chinese word for something and then I use my phonics skills to spell out the word. This word Chi Pow is Chinese for a certain kind of dress. On Saturday Ray's cousin got married and we girls decided to wear Chi Pows. Olivia loved dressing up. She walked around all night telling everyone how pretty her dress was. I'm pretty sure the wedding photographer took more pictures of her than the bride and groom. Sophie enjoyed wearing her dress also. Me, I felt a little foolish at first considering I'm not Chinese but Ray's family took it as a sign of respect. It was a surprise for Daddy. He came home from work to get ready for the wedding and he found us all waiting in our Chi Pow's. He loved it and I love being apart of a family who cherishes their culture and traditions.
