Still alive and well

I have been neglecting the blog. January was eventful. Deniss and Aaron tried out for the high school soccer team. Deniss made the JV team. That is quite the accomplishment considering that he had never played organized soccer before coming to America.

Aaron was quite disappointed that he didn't make the team. We feel like his skills are good - he just need to work on fitness and attitude. We are very proud of him regardless.

The whole soccer situation set back the boys relationship a little bit. They are getting back on track now.

Deniss and I had planned to go to Latvia this summer to visit. Then we thought about hosting one of Deniss' best friends instead. Deniss liked that idea because he would get to spend five weeks with Ruslans instead of just a few days. We are working on making that happen. Deniss needs the chance to interact with other Latvia kids every now and then.

More later.
