Sunday night we watched Kung Fu Panda with the kids and ate "Kung Fu Chicken" and noodles. I love having theme nights, they are so much fun! After the movie we went for a walk and enjoyed the nice weather. The boys did their kung fu moves the whole time, it was cracking us up. Here's our Chinese Chicken recipe that we ate, super yummy!

1 Whole chicken
1/2 c. soy sauce
1/3 c. brown sugar
1/2 c. water
