Messages to Family and Friends

Emily: Hi Mommy, Daddy, Claire, Jojo, DISHY, Ginger, and Olive. I saw baboons and warthogs and other animals including goats (that one's for you Nate). I love and miss you all and I hope you guys are having a good two weeks!

Julie: Hello Dad, Matthew, and Jawz. I crossed a scary bridge today. Love and miss you.

Sage: Mom, miss you a lot. Wish that I could see you. Love you a lot.

Courtney: Hey Mom and Dad and everyone else. I miss you so much. I crossed a small bridge that was so high. CRAZY RIGHT?

Alex: Hi parents and family and all the friends who I remembered to tell about the blog. Kenya's awesome and Cairo was amazing. I had an interesting run-in with a cop, but otherwise a lot of fun! Love you all, see you in a couple weeks!

Tess: Hi Mom and Dad! Addie, Maya, and Zoe! I love you all and I'm having a fantastic time. The pyramids were amazing and it's just getting better each day.

Anna: Hello family! Things are going good. I slept the whole flight to Cairo. You'd be jealous of all the things we did in ten hours. I'll tell you more about Kenya later. Love ya!

Marilyn: Hey moms. Cairo was crazy cool and Kenya is gorgeous. I love you. Did Christina pick up the cake?

Gilda: Hi Mom, Dad, Emma, Max, and Willa. Love you and miss you so much. I'm having the most incredible time! Happy almost birthday Maxy and Will in case I can't write to you later. xoxo

Kassandra: Hey Mom and Dad!! I miss you guys so much but I'm having such an amazing time and making such great friends. Can't wait to show pictures. Say hi to Sona and Lickey for me.

Rey: My dear loved ones, sending you smiles and lots of love.

Ms. Smith: Happy Anniversary Ryan! I miss you Oliver and Eliza. Love you all.

  2. Sounds like you are all faring quite well! Alex, I'm not sure a tease like,"I had an interesting run in with a cop," is exactly the way your first communication with your family should be. Care to explain? Have you met the children yet? Keep in touch and enjoy every second.--Mom and Dad

  4. WOW Tess! I am actually more jealous now than when you left. Baboons, bridges, pyramids, police escorts, and crazy travel all sound so wonderful. You have to get down to some hard labor to make me feel better. The only news that I can offer is that the NL won, thanks to David. Dad wants to know about the Sphinx. With lots of love and hugs, mom and dad

  8. Hi Ms. Smith/Jess/Mommy--
    Eliza wants to know if you're having a nice time, and Oliver is wondering if you saw any volcanoes. We're all on our best behavior; Gary got his ball, so he's got the run of the house. We love you lots and miss you lots! Think of us when you eat your next handful of ugali!

  9. Hey Dishy-
    It sounds like you guys are having an amazing time and the Egyptisn food is definitely better than anything I have eaten so far. I can't believe I am missing goats and baboons. Love you, miss you and can't wait to see you in a couple weeks
    Nate
