Hi friends,
Sorry we have not had Internet!!!!
Thank you all who gave me a happy b-day greetings.
It was the best birthday I've ever had!!!
I woke up with my family singing the happy birthday song to me,
then we ate breakfast, witch was oatmeal and toast and I opened my presents,
I got 2 new shirts,a dress, a knife, and a birthday card.
at 8:00 my teachers arrived, and told me happy birthday too.
Class went fine, but I was just too excited to go diving after class. (read fast)
Right when class ended I stuffed a sandwich in my mouth, jumped into my swimming suit, and ran out the door and into Parrots,(witch is my dive shop)
We, witch is my family,the Webers, and Dive Masters, hooked up our gear and went out into the clear blue ocean. the boat ride was very fun,because every one sang too me.
The dive was beautiful, (we took lot's of pics)after the dive we washed up,
then went to Mermaids and and bought pizza,they sed that "it will be done in 20..no 30 minutes"So we came back in 30min they sed "O it will be 15 more minutes.
So we waited and waited and waited until it was one hour! We had to go to church now, we were almost late! We went to the church... the doors were closed, that was strange because it normally isn't like that. So I opened the door, and all the lights were out... then all at once people started clapping and saying, "Feliz Cumpleano Andrea" They were having a surprise party for me. It was fun. One lady at our church had taken ALL the beautiful pink curtains down from her house and put them in the church, it was SO beautiful, they had baloons, streamsers, and a Happy Birthday Andi sign... but in Spanish. They had tons of games ready too. Potatoe sack games, egg relays, a "guess this verse game" and a Pinata! Some kids even gave me gifts. And they had prepared a WHOLE meal for everyone, and CAKE! After the surprise party was over we came home, where I opened my other gifts. It was a very fun day. Now to add somthing funny. During our five day club. Mommy asked one of the girls to come and pray for the club, She prayed a LONG LONG prayer, like three minutes long. And near the end of the prayer she said, "Dios, gracias for las gringos" Which was pretty much thanks for these white tourists :p We thought it was hillarious. Well, it;'s our last day, so I'm going to go to the beach with my friends, and I can't wait to see you all soon, and tell you how are flight goes!

Can't tell you how I have missed you - I loved all your Blogs - and your Blog Andi about your Birthday. Did your mama give you my card and 'gift'? Hope so - We will see you tonight at 6:35pm!!!

Yes, we knew about the B-day party, but were amazed with the extent. We had NO clue they were going to decorate like that, and have food too... thus the long wait for a pizza, Oh... keep our blog up? Cool. Okay. We're going to Family Camp soon... and Diana Josephena might be coming to the States nexy month! And speech and debate has started... so I guess we still have a life to blog about, if y'all want to read it :D
