Well, now you know. I guess I've got to figure those out for every verb... On a brighter note, here are some photos from my weekend in the city!

 I went to my friend's rugby game on Saturday. Man that is a ROUGH sport! It kind of makes our football guys look like wussies. In rugby no one wears pads, and only a few wear helmets. And they never stopped because someone was hurt! Those are Gladiator Men
 This weekend was the festival of Sarria, which is my neighborhood. In Barcelona each neighborhood has their own party. Cool, right? I went out with some friends. There are concerts and fairs in the streets.

 These are my best buds from school, Alex and Santi.

And to top it off I had a little sibling-reunion on Sunday! Skype is so cool. I can chat with my brother in Montana (even if he's upside down its still cool) and my brother at home at the same time. Over and out!

  1. Yes, that sibling Skype reunion was the frosting on the cake of my weekend, too. Super fun! Hope we can do it again soon.
    Keep on writing!
    See you in November. . .
    Lots of Love,
    Mom

  2. CC---learning the language seems to have the same difficulty as me trying to teach math
    to high schoolers. I am not sure I can do it, and it is not something I can fake. You
    will make out much better than I will, I am sure!

    V4 did a 5K in the misty rain this morning along the lakewalk in Duluth. It was the Harvest Run and we raised money for the NICU at Essentia Health. We got to ride the train from Fitgers to the starting line
    at about 40th Avenue East. Finley's favorite part was riding the train! Izzy and Finley both did very well considering they had the pukey flu this week. Yuk.

    Next weekend we will be at ValleyScare thinking of you! Hopefully Finley won't get too frightened.
    We will have to update you about how it went!

    Keep up the good work!
    V4
