Wow! What a week! Bob and Mariada made it in safe late last Friday night. The weekend was spent visiting and meeting Grandma and Grandpa and one great Grandma! Sunday we went to church and meet many friends that were so happy to finally meet our newest daughter. During the last week we ran errands and showed her around her new town. We went over to the local middle school where the principal already had two girl student ambassadors that play soccer for her to meet. When she starts school at the new tri, they will show Mariada around, make sure she knows where her classes are and invite her to have lunch with them. It’s a great program that has already put Mariada at ease about the first day. We went up to have lunch with Dad one day and went shopping for winter boots and sneakers for gym class and of course in-door soccer shoes! Her first game was yesterday; she did well but was very nervous. After the game she told me that she was nervous this week but next game she will not be! Ok then. So far she loves America, she thinks we have a lot of very nice friends and that everything is BIG, SO BIG!
I would love to post a few pictures, but we are in a no pictures allowed mode for now, I hope she is over that soon!
Other great news, Sara has made it into the Jr. Olympics! She is so geeked! And Ben has been awarded a congressional nomination to the Naval Academy! We will know in April if he is accepted, but the nomination is a very big step in the right direction. Lots of stuff going on at the Gezon house!
