Good Times Had by All!!

Hello from Massy, France.


Massy is the town where our school is at. The school is small, but there are about 50 others here studying with us. I am definitely being challenged. I understand the concepts being taught in my class since they are mostly review...however my teacher talks SOO fast! The first day she talked very slowly...and then I guess the 2nd day I think she had too much sugar before coming to class and ZOOOOM away she went! She is very animated which makes class fun sometimes.

So overall I am working very hard, learning, reviewing, and doing the homework we are given everyday. But don't worry, there is plenty of time for fun! :-P

Last weekend I went to EuroDisney and I thought I would share some of those photos. Also included are photos from our American soiree (we had tacos, chips and salsa, applepie with ice cream, and we line danced!) As well as pictures from the British soiree that took place tonight! Hope you enjoy them!

Thanks to those of you I have heard from in the last few weeks and I will attempt to reply to all of your emails...but there are many of you I would love to hear from. Now you know about the fun I'm having here...what are you doing? :-) Thanks again to you all!

Goodbye Marseille...

Well...at least for the next 3 weeks! :-)

Tomorrow I am headed to London for 3 days of wonderful vacation in a place where they speak English! Don't get me wrong...I am really comin along with the French, but it will be nice to understand everyone for a couple days. In fact it will probably be a little bit of a shock! :-P

After 3 days in London, Katie, Del, and I are off to Paris for a 3 week language school. We will be participating in an intense language course on a campus just outside of Paris. We will probably be doing alot of reveiw which will be wonderful since I am shocked when I realize how much I have forgotten! Also, we will have some free time so we are planning on getting out to see a few places...Normandy and Versaille being two of those.

So we are hoping that our French skills prove strong enough to survive the classes. Also there will be some side sessions that we are hoping will prove very helpful. The 2 I am taking are Biblical French and Singing in French (it is actually a little different than speaking).

So if you think about it, please pray that we will be safe in all the traveling we do in the next few weeks and that we are able to recall our French and remember what new stuff we learn while in the classes.

I love you all and thanks to those of you who have sent letters, emails, or facebook messages!
