Autumn Moon Festival

We are members of our city's chapter of Families with Children from China (FCC). This past Saturday at the beach, we celebrated the Chinese holiday: Autumn Moon Festival. There was a good turn-out of about 80-100 people. We ate our picnic dinners and enjoyed games, crafts, castle building, and just silly fun.

See the moon?

We had a wonderful time and greatly appreciate the precious people who make up our FCC group!
