Late night soccer & Team Day














This is going to be quick as we have to get to bed for the 5 a.m. start to the first surgery day. Everyone is so excited! Last night went until 12:30 playing soccer on a gloriously lit turf field. The Hondurians were very good, but Riley held his own and was one of the first picks for teams. It was a great night.
Today was team day and after a fun couple of hours shopping in Valle de Angles, we went to a students mountain house to chill. That is what we did. It was a bit cold for the pool, but the kids made it in along with a few of the team members. It was a warm sunny day eating Papousas and learning about each other. We then drove back to the clinic where we held our team meeting and played the infamous name game. Riley and I both proved our worth and it is amazing how you really do get to know everyone. My dad finally arrived with a potential donor from NJ with an entourage of people. They received a tour of the clinic and will be with us tomorrow at the hospital. We are off to bed to be ready for the 6 a.m. breakfast meeting and the last cheer for a good start to the week. Riley will be going into surgery tomorrow so it is going to be a big day! Buenas Noches! (is that right?) love to all my ones at home.. brigette and riley
