Spanish Lessons...Just the 3 of us!

This is the second week of Spanish lessons. Last week we did 2 hours Monday, Wednesday, Friday and this week we are back to one hour every other day. Our tutors name is Freddy he is from Nicaragua and was referred to us by a friend. He is pretty awesome, I feel like we have learned a lot in just the 2 weeks. Last night I couldn't sleep and I found myself forming sentences in my dreams and then translating them in Spanish. My "partner in crime" Jeanne has said similar things that she is dreaming in Spanish and saying Spanish sentences. I also found that at the gym I am counting in Spanish without even knowing it. Looks like the lessons are working Freddy!

Well, it's really nice to take lessons with someone that is on the same level. Some of you might know that Jeanne and I also work out together fairly often so the other day we found a unique way of practicing our Spanish. We went for a run and the whole time we talked in Spanish and asked each other questions. It was a good run and a good lesson. It's funny to see how much we are becoming more confident. Less hand motions more talking..Less asking Cullen questions more talking.

Well, I am so thankful that someone told us about Freddy for a while it was like pulling hair to get anyone to tell you of a tutor they could recommend.
Me and Freddy...Jeanne is taking the picture so she is there in spirit.
