German and trampolines

I am in the process of learning German right now.  I just passed the 20% mark this week so I am pretty proud of myself.  I am much better at understanding the language than I am speaking it.  But I think I know enough to get by at least.  It's one of my 2016 goals and its an app called DuoLingo that I am using.  It's great because it has several different lessons within each day and it requires you to go back and review lessons after so much time so that you keep up with what you have already learned.  I hope that I get to use this new found knowledge soon :)
Yesterday I also went and did something I keep telling myself I'll do which is go to one of those trampoline places.  I have been to a bounce house place which was so fun but I've never made it to one of these.  I enjoyed it quite a bit and it was way more of a work out than I though it would be.  We all went as a family and i'm glad we got out and did something new.  I did not go into the foam pits because I am afraid of foam and they were disgusting.  Besides that though, it was a good time.  It definitely prompted steff and I to look into some other stuff we want to do.  So soon we will be visiting a gun range, golf range and the batting cages.  These are all things I have never done before either. I also enrolled myself in a color run 5K which is in May so I am excited for that.
Steff also taught me how to crochet this week.  Again it is an item on my bucket list that I am excited to mark off.  I taught myself a few more stitches but I am hoping I stick with it and can make some cool gifts for people.
here is the "pot holder" I made

and this is the front and back of the pillow I made on shutterfly
