That would be, "Happy Christmas" in Amharic, the language spoken in Addis Ababa, the capitol city of Ethiopia. As old calendarists, Ethiopians celebrate Christmas on January 7th. This year, our friends
Tesi and Zach invited us to celebrate Ethiopian Christmas with their family and friends. Besides enjoying an incredible meal of some traditional Ethiopian dishes and homemade pizza and ice cream, the Johnson crew had a great time getting to know our friends and their loved ones better. Thank you Klipsch's!
These three are just too cute. For sure, we will have Ethiopian outfits next year for all our boys and our little girl. And from the pictures below, you can see Thomas, Trysten, and Tariku enjoyed a whole lot of wrestling.

Oh, that sounds super fun!! What a neat tradition! Look at Thomas, all big guy-ish and wrestling it up - attaboy! ; ) Beth your hair is getting so long! I love it.
Greetings from a Byzantine Catholic in Columbus, Ohio. Bishop John Kudrick posted the Blessing of the Bedroom YouTube video on his Facebook wall. What a cute and lovely video! God grant many years to you and your family! Fr. Terry will be coming to our house for blessing this weekend. Best wishes, Liam H.
Thank you Liam for your kind words. I am not sure how our son's blessing became so popular but it is always fun to meet new friends. Enjoy your house blessing this weekend; ours is scheduled for the end of the month.
Melkam Genna na T'imqet! I just stumbled across your blog through your son's room blessing :-) and thought it was cool to find other Orthodox in the USA connected with Ethiopia (I spent high school there and have gone back every year or so since). I hope this finds you well!
