i lied...


for anyone who still even reads this im sorry i lied...i said i would have the marathon story but that will have to wait...all i have are a few pictures. literally the day after i finished i was on a bus to go to a village to help host a baseball camp. matt and Ania, the volunteers who got the equipment shipped from the states, decided to bequeathe said equipment to me. So after their camp ended we packed up and started mine on monday. So far it has been amazing. The kids are loving it, and learning suprisingly quick. Except i got no sticks and the team i was coaching today lost 24-7. It was harder than i thought though, how to explain in Kazakh the acceptable nature of kicking dirt and throwing gatorade coolers in the dugout (as the manager of course, that way the kids can free of the burden and are free/ required to be good sports)

Of course people still check in on your blog! I for one am always checking on two of my favorite "adopted" sons. You guys amaze me everyday. What a life changing adventure you are both on. Congratulations on the race. You finished it! Did Willy tell you he's going to be an uncle? Yep, the Willy family will be expanding come January. Keep up the great stories and writing. Those of us who don't have much of a life (that would be me) really looks forward to updates. We love you!
