From Mateo





Saturday we got an email from Matt's mission president saying he got to Cape Town safe and sound... Then we got an email this morning from Matt! YEA! I have always seen/heard these missionary Mom's talk about getting an email etc... and never really appreciated HOW MUCH they mean!! It is like someone just came up and gave you the biggest hug ever!!! It seriously made me sooo happy today. I don't know why, but this weekend I was feeling kind of blue all weekend. . . I LOVED conference -- wish I could read all the talks right this minute again... but for some reason it was just the mood I was in all weekend, so this morning when I woke up at 6 am and found pictures and a LONG email from Matt I just felt so great! He was only able to email us about 10 minutes from the MTC and now he gets an hour! I am so glad! He sounds so good, happy and healthy! DON'T FORGET TO CHECK OUT HIS MISSION BLOG FOR ALL THE LATEST AND GREATEST FROM So. AFRICA at elderdoxey.blogspot.com

We went out Saturday in between conference sessions to play tennis... it was getting a little windy when we left... by the time we got to the courts it had started to rain a little... we decided to go ahead and play anyway... finally we were caught in a massive down pour. It was GREAT! Playing in tennis in the rain is quite fun!! It's a great sport we can all do as a family and this time it was extra refreshing! The girls are getting better all the time! :) I will be posting some great tennis lesson shots soon! :)
