Change of Host Family

So yesterday i sent pictures to my coordinator in Japan. Then today i got a phone call saying my host family canceled last minute -___- How disappointing. Is it because I wasn't what they were expecting? Oh well, so my new host families in Kazuno, Akita.
I have little info on them but here's what I have:
Last name: Katsuyama
Father
Mother
girl 17
boy 12
girl 10

I looked up Kazuno, Akita, looks like I'll be in a rural area. Oh well nothing can be done. I'm a little bummed though not because I dont like my new host family its just the sudden change.

Tea

^ This is probably the only thing keeping me sane right now x_x
Lol, whooo 3 more days!
Milk Tea FTW

HOST FAMILY!

I Finally got my host family in an E-mail. Turns out they sent me an E-mail like 2 days ago! I knew I should have checked my e-mail earlier. The thing is i wrote do instead of so in a sentence, now my host mom will probably think I'm stupid -____-
Okay so heres the info:
Host dad is a dentist he's 52
Host mom she used to be a exchange student in Gresham!
Host brother is 18 lives in tokyo
