We went to this English store up in SLC.
I first want to start out by saying that the talk that Matt gave at his farewell was amazing! I don't say that just because i'm his sister, I say that becasue I know in my heart what an amazing person Matt is. Always thinking of other people before himself. Always trying to make people laugh and let them know how special they are. Friends mean a lot to Matt, and he has so many amazing friends. I would like to say to their families thank you for raising such amazing young guys who have helped Matt come so far.
Matt left for the MTC on July 3, 2009. He went sraight to the MTC in Enland. It was so hard for us to say good bye, only because I think I have figured out that he is the heart of our family. Always keeping us on our toes, and making our stomaches hurt from laughing so hard. We are all so proud of the guy! I can't wait to hear of all the peoples hearts he touches in England, and how many friends he makes.

His first email was hilarious. So random, as he explains how the guy sitting behind him kept kicking his seat for 7 hours on the plane and how he wanted to jump out of the plane and plung to his death. His compainion is a little off but seems to be a solid guy, and he likes him. He would give his pinky fingers and pinky toes to have a Mountain Dew or a coke. He realized he wont have a chance to try out for American Idol because his voice isnt as good as he thought. I'm sure he still sings loud and in the shower. The night before when we were all helping him pack we found out what Matt really thinks about taking baths. He took more bubble bath than a chick would. He bought out bath and body works from their aromatherapy stress relief bubble bath. What a goon! Hey at least his companions wont be writing to their parent's saying their companion stinks cause he doesn't shower...
We miss Matt, but are so proud of him and look forward to getting his emails and letters with his terrible handwriting on them, you would think you need someone to translate them, but we love them. We love all of you who support Matt and we will keep this updated so everyone can know how he is doing and what's going on.
Love Brit
