I am busy trying to create an activity for my nursery kids on Sunday. I want to do something with General Conference but there's only so much you can do with kids 18 months to 3 years in age. While I was looking for some ideas online, I found this! I really like it!

Where will it be?
These past two weeks, Joseph has been extremely busy with school and finding an internship. He's met with ExxonMobil (his #1 choice) a number of times and has applied to many engineering companies. The Career Fair is this Thursday at BYU so he will meet all the recruiters then. Hopefully some interviews will come his way. He's even applied for an internship in Australia. Se here are my top picks for him and why:
I think it would be cool to work/intern here because I have a feeling we would get TONS of free stuff like shampoo, toothpaste and whatever else they make.
Joseph knows I love the pharmaceutical companies the most. I feel the job there would be so rewarding. But Joseph doesn't feel his strength is in biology. But alas, it is still my favorite. He might humor me and apply.
Joseph loves Dow and so do I, mainly because their headquarters are in Michigan, which is close to Wisconsin. They are a chemical processing company, whatever that means... But he likes them and they always have free stuff at the Career Fair so I like them too. Last year, they gave us a water bottle.
ExxonMobil is probably Joseph's favorite. It became my favorite this past week. If we interned here, we'd be in either Fairfax, VA or Houston, TX. The recruiters said Houston costs 40% less to live there than Provo, which is a relief. The recruiters also said they only paid $75 in medical bills when they had a child because the health insurance is the best. ExxonMobil is considered the #1 chemical engineering company in the U.S. so it would be an honor to intern there. Joseph had lunch with them last week and has breakfast with them today.
Joseph's dad worked at BP for many years in Alaska so Joseph contacted his dad's co-workers and applied. We would probably go up to Anchorage for the summer if we interned there. Joseph tells me that the summers in Alaska are amazing and I would love to go visit where he grew up. It would be far from anything I know but a great experience.

He will get a great internship and we should know by mid-October what his options are. I guess we'll just have to wait and see.
