On August 25th the Cory Borup Family is going to Spain for 3 months. We hope to help Madison adjust to a school in Burgos Spain while at the same time reinforce Weston's and start Lynette and Cory's Spanish speaking skills. Besides improving language skills we hope to serve in the LDS Branch in anyway we can (which might be very difficult because of our lack of language skills, but that won't stop us from doing our best), and see some of Europe. 

There still is a lot to do. Lynette sees this as the perfect chance to get me do to all those little tasks that keep getting put off.  I think if they weren't important to do before now, why does that change just because we're going to be gone for a few months? But just like leaving a messy house to come home to, Lynette hates the idea of having "tasks" to come home to.

Madison is very excited to go on a year long adventure. She hopes to improve her already very good Spanish skills. Weston on the other hand has very mixed feelings. He's dreading the thought of having to translate for his parents who, in his opinion, have no chance of ever learning Spanish.  My fear is he may be right, and that will make it tough on him. However, tough isn't always bad. 

Well, there is my brief introduction to "Los Borups En Espania". I hope this blog serves as a way to communicate our experience in Spain to all those who care and maybe to some who don't.

Adios,  por ahora!
