I'm not sure if many families celebrate "adoption day" but when we adopted Xuxu 8 years ago, it was big in the States, and everyone in our group who went to China celebrate it (or they did!, last I heard a few years back).
Plus, I asked Xuxu recently if she still wanted to celebrate it, and of course she said yes - what child wouldn't want a pressie, plus get to go out for a Chinese meal? See, not only do we go out for Chinese New Year, we also go out for adoption day. Xuxu's step mum (her dad's new wife) is Hong Kong Chinese, so Xuxu gets an added bonus of eating Chinese food almost everytime she's at her dads!
