Dear Kitty,

    Everything goes well.

     I want to tell you about my this holiday. You know that it snowed so heavily in this winter. Most of roads in south of China were stopped. My family planned to go to Beijing to have the Spring Festival, but because of the big snow we couldn't go anywhere just stayed at home. But I didn't feel pity. Because I liked staying at home with my parents and my sister. It is the most warmest thing.

   Before the Spring Festival, I helped my mother clean the house and prepare everything which would be used in the festival. After the festival we went to relatives to wish them have a good year. Also I got some money from my parents and relatives. There was an interesting thing that my father lead my sister and I to go to a small hill to have a picnic. It was really so relax. We spent a nice day.
