Back in Belgium!

Hey everyone, so by now i've finally reunited with Wes back here in Belgium...3 weeks was way too long to be away from eachother but really makes you appreciate one another more. :) We have a great apartment which we're making more homey everyday.. we've retrieved all our belongings from Charlotte's house, where we kept everything all summer, and things are coming together nicely! We've added a new member to our family in the last couple of days.. an 8 week old min pin named Stella...she is so adorable and we love her so much already! Bentley still needs to warm up to her a little bit but it'll happen soon enough...she's got a lot of energy and is a little pistol, she chases Bentley and tries to play rough, although she's a runt and probably only weighs a pound... It'll be really fun when she grows up a little and her and Bentley can play all day long! Wes got back from Croatia last Thursday.. the camp was 11 days, he said it was pretty hard and he gave it his all... he has a game against a french team tomorrow, not sure what the name is, but it's just basically a practice game.. He has a lot of tournament and pre season games coming up so i'll have to keep everyone posted on those...Not sure if I've said this before but you can read the Spirou website in english if you google babelfish and type in the website (www.spiroubasket.com) and set it to translate it from french to english..it's actually really neat how it does it...makes it a lot easier! As for me learning more french this year, I'm not going to be taking classes again, they were too hard when the teacher didn't speak a word of english...but I'm borrowing a french cd and brought along my french dictionary..i also get alot of tutorials off the internet...so we'll see, if i have 2 more years in this town, i better be learning some more french! haa!  Ok, better go but i'll be posting again soon :) Love, lins xoxo

When I was living in France, I found a great podcast on itunes that was free, had handouts, etc for learning French. It was GREAT if you want to search for it.

Have fun in Belgium.
