SURPRISE!

First of all I want to apologize to those of you who I confused when I posted the last blog. My brithday is on the 3rd but when I posted my blog it was still the second at home (third morning here).
So yesterday after I wrote the Blog about the contentness God gave me, I went home and had a great nap! haha then I was invited to go the movie theatre to watch Planet 51 with a missionary and her children (I know weird to think about going to a movie in Africa). So anyways I went with them and when I got home Liz (who plays the flute) and I gathered around the piano and played some music which was great! (the piano is actually Stephanie's and she's moving out on Saturday so I will no longer have that =[ Then since Stephanie had offered to make supper Liz, Stephanie and I had supper together for the first time which was really nice. Stephanie apologized that it was only Liz and her and I was happy that I just wasn't by myself.
After supper we started doing dishes and Stephanie kicked me out of the kitchen telling me that I wasn't allowed to do dishes on my birthday so I went into the living room to play some more piano when Gill (Short Term Cordinator), Ruth (a missionary that teaches at the college) and the two new missionaries from Switzerland came in. I assumed that Gill had brought them because she usually tries to take the new Short Termers around when they first arrive and they had arrived earlier that day. Anyways, at that point I saw Seth (a MK) walk in and I was a little confused why he was at our house but just figued that he came with the guys. At this point people began flooding into our house and I finally put all the clues from the day (people trying to get me out of the house, the banners that said Happy Birthday, the cook asking how to spell my name, etc.) together. Needless to stay I was both surprised and overwhelmed! Stephanie and Liz looked to be pretty pleased with themselves!
We had cake, (three cause our cook made two and I had made myself and cake just incase that day as well) and play pictionary and just enjoyed eachothers company. At about 8:15 when everyone left I asked Stephanie if I could use her dial-up connection in the house to try to get a hold of my parents (she had warned me that skype didn't work with the dial up but i tried anyways) and I was able to have a quick video conversation with them which was amazing! I know that that was a gift from God!
All in all my day was amazing and I felt so love and blessed to have so many people in my life! God truly blessed me and showed me how it doesn't matter where I am He will bring people into my life who care about me and love me! I am so blessed!
