We had a busy but very fun weekend. On Saturday we met up with our Ethiopian playgroup and enjoyed meeting a new family who lives in our area and has two Ethiopian children. The moms and youngest kids try to get together about once a month but this was the first time that the dads and all of the older siblings were able to come and join in the fun. It was great to see how much all of the older children looked out for all of the younger Ethiopian kids, not just their own siblings. We feel so fortunate to know these wonderful families.
Then on Sunday we had a big picnic with my extended family. It's been quite awhile since all of the aunts, uncles and cousins have gotten together and we were blessed with a beautiful sunny day (finally!) Of course we waited until after lunch, baseball, frisbee, tree climbing and general playgroup merriment to try to take a big cousin photo. Grandma was happy to have so much of her family there, including two all the way from Hawaii!
