Love Little Ethiopians (and their families)

Last night we had the best afternoon/evening with a bunch of little people racing all over our house and having a madcap time together!  We have a great group of about 30 families or so that live in the "Triad" of North Carolina (that's Winston-Salem, High Point, Greensboro and everything in between to those of you who may be confusing it with the slightly more well known triangular geographic area of the state known as the "Triangle").  We have big get-togethers every few months, but this time we just had a little late afternoon moms & margaritas playdate.  I think maybe the acoustics in our house are sort of funny, but it was really loud in here for about 4 hours.  Between 7 moms, I think we had about 20 kids between 2 and 7, so it was chaos - but awesome.  Ruby loves the crowd - she's little shy with a new person when it's one-on-one, but with a bunch of kids, she's so happy to run around pretending like she's one of the big kids.  This morning, it's all quiet and empty again.  Actually, that's not true, since the children are racing around fighting with light sabers, but it's a little quieter!
