Just recently, my wife Liga and I celebrated our 3rd wedding anniversary. Never could I have imagined that my life could be so filled with happiness and joy as I have right now with Liga and she has with myself.

Liga and I are best friends, we enjoy doing many fun things together. In February, I surprised my wife by getting tickets to go to Salt Lake City to see her favorite hockey team "LATVIJA play in the Olympics (first time they have played since 1936). Now I must say that I am the biggest Latvija hockey fan in the world. It was an outstanding time, never have I enjoyed something so much. This was because wee met many Latvian fans who were wonderful, so full of spirit and joy. We even had a chance to meet Ms. Vaire Vike Freiberga the President of Latvia.

Over the last couple of years, we also have traveled back to Riga Latvia. As Riga is very important to Liga and myself. It is Liga's hometown and it is my adopted hometown. We love Riga as it is a fun place, full of many things to do. Many nice restaurants, museums, and even a few fun dance clubs. Last year we saw the 800 birthday celebration of Riga and the festivals in Old Riga were something that I will remember for many years.

Thanks again,
