Staggette for Gwanire!

Hey guys,

Yesterday was Gwanire's staggette... I was pleasantly surprised that all of the girls I invited came, there were 15 of us in all.

Gwanire was SOOOOO touched, excited... so much that she almost cried when thanking me. I dressed her us as a "tribal Princess" , with the short skirt and little top out of cloth. You will see photo's soon.. anyway it was great, and lots of people brought gifts, really was an amazing night for her, they made her feel very specail. It was amazing I got all those people when I didn't know half of them! :)

So today we are buying decorationd for the wedding, and possibly catching a movie later.

Thursday we are going to YWAM Lusaka again to visit and sleep over.

Trinah Vinjelu's cousin is staying with us for the week!!! Very cool, she was my first friend in Zambia, and so is very specail to me, and obveously vinj, being that they are related...

We are also finishing up some recording and hoping Trinah can do some as well.

Vinjelus mom is coming on Saturday! This is goignt o be so exciting! The last few days have been great wioth all the family around, we have a VERY full house! And it will be even more rich with Muka here as well.

I think thats all for now.

P.S- I Kathryn and getting much better at speaking Nyanja... I am so chaffed... :) heehee I am also getting very good at hustling for stuff... like taxi etc... :) Truly Zambian.

What a blessing to be able to do something so special for your sister! It is interesting that you got such a good turnout - must be a cultural thing, eh? What kind of gifts did she get?
Sounds like wedding preps are becoming fun!
give our love to Muka and I can't wait to hear about the wedding.
Get Vinj to video you talking Nyanja to someone or hustling for something so we can see that, too.

Love you
Mom
