Yep, that's right, Ethiopia is a few YEARS behind us in the states on their calendar. We kind of like it because it makes us all feel a little younger! We had so much fun celebrating the Ethiopian New Year at a local Ethiopian Church in Grand Rapids. We all got dressed up in our traditional Ethiopian clothes (can you tell they were purchased over a year ago?(-:) Many of our friends came to celebrate and we ended the night with a traditional Ethiopian dinner. Carys LOVED the injera and all the spicy foods. We were so happy that she recognized the taste and liked it. Here are a few pics of our evening:
