In my last post I forgot to mention the singing that we got to witness at our family's church. I am telling you it puts our trained choirs to shame! We went to the Wednesday night service, and there weren't very many people there. So, we sat down and Nani just bursts into song right next to me. Everyone else in the church joined her in these beautiful harmonies. Mom was not kidding when she said they will blow the roof off the church with their singing. It's so powerful and beautiful, and they just let go and sing as loud as they want. It brought Sarah and me to tears.
Then last night I got the best treat! Right at midnight when I turned 23 my cousins that were here sang me Happy Birthday and then one of their church songs. It was so beautiful I started crying. We have it all on video tape. Then Nani did a few Tongan dances for us.
Right now we are waiting for Sina to pick us up and take us to the pig roast. Should be fun! = ) Hugs and kisses
