Rodizio

Maysen got her new article assignments today. She has to write five articles on Rodizio style dining. They are all a little bit different. When Mike found that out he thought we needed to do some research for lunch. So, we hopped in the car and drove to Brasa Grill. We decided to try the one down in Lehi. We drove down there only to find out they are not open for lunch. Didn't expect that! We then drove to Brasa Grill by Fashion Place Mall. Delicious as always. I drove home so Mike could get on his work call. Technology is great.

Maysen likes to use Bear as a pillow when we are reading scriptures.

Steak for Dinner

Maysen and I drove down to Salt Lake so she could turn in some paperwork for her new job. She didn't have to go to the Friday meeting today, but we thought it would be a great time to see what lunch places are near her building. She is in North Salt Lake, kind of in a warehouse area. Her building is really nice though. There is a place called 'Handle Bar' that is close enough to walk. We decided to check that out. It really is a bar. We were carded and everything when we arrived. The server kept trying us to get a drink saying that 'he wouldn't tell.' The food was great though. Maysen loved it. I'm glad that if she doesn't bring a lunch she has an easy option.

Mike and Preston spent the day fishing at Bridger Lake. Scoop and Steve came up today and fished with them. They all stayed in the motorhome. Sounded like they had the best time, even though cows decided to camp with them. Here are random pictures from the day.

Jorja sent me a lot of pictures from today too. Looks like she had a lot of fun! She doesn't have classes on Fridays, but when there is a home football game the ambassadors end up doing a lot. She loves it.

Major Change

Jorja called me today wanting to know how to change her major. Right now she is a communications major, but she wants to go to more undecided. She asked about getting a public relations major, but Utah State doesn't have one of those. There is a journalism major with a public relations emphasis. I don't know if she would be interested in that. She has an appointment with her counselor coming up. Hopefully they will be able to answer all of her questions.

Maysen finished her training today. It is going to be nice for her not to have to drive down to Salt Lake tomorrow. Now she gets to start writing articles. They will start her out slow. Right now she has three articles to write about jewelry. One is about gem stones. One is about wedding bands and I can't remember what the third one is about. Now instead of writing essays for grades she will get to write articles for cash. I think she will like that a lot more.

First Day on the Job

Today was Maysen's first day with her new job, wish I had gotten a picture. She was able to drive down to Salt Lake by herself and just had a great first day. This week she drives down to Salt Lake on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday for training. The rest of the time she will work from home and drive up only on Fridays. I'm pretty excited for her.

Jorja took advantage of still being home and went to breakfast with Bode. I took advantage of Jorja still being home and took Jorja's car to get the emissions test done and get her new sticker. I was so glad I was able to do that! Jorja did her online class from home this morning before heading back to Logan. It was so nice having her here! Also nice to see her feeling better.

Diib Interview

Maysen had a job interview with Diib today. It was in Salt Lake. I drove her down there and waited in the car while she had her interview. She was pretty excited when she came out and thought she did really well. She was also excited about the job and the company. It is something that interests her and something she is good at. (It is a technical writing job.) Hopefully she will hear back from them later this week and hopefully she will get the job! Maysen and I stopped at Dali Crepes for lunch. It was once again delicious.  I tried Greatest Passions, which was strawberry, Nutella and graham crackers. It was so good!

I stole this picture from Stockton's blog, but look how much fun he and Jorja are having! This is from a fhe activity. Hiking. (Miriam is the girl who is helping Jorja with her Chinese. Jorja loves her!)
