Pic of Matt looking handsome today after church
As many of you probably already know, Matt received another offer from his second firm, Ernst & Young, after his fly-out interview with them in San Jose earlier this week. So now he is just trying to decide which he will take. But to help him in his decisions, both firms have pulled out a full-court press to win him over. And he could not be happier :)
Sometimes I am reminded that he is still a student and living for the free meals. Both firms now have their BYU Alum-hires now calling and meeting with him this week and next to tell them about their wonderful experiences with the company. A PWC rep took him out to lunch on Friday to any restaurant of his choice - which was, of course, Tucanos. And then that same night, E & Y had a dinner for all of the BYU students they gave offer to and their spouses. They held the dinner at the Hinckley Alumni house which was really very nice. I haven't actually been in there - they were just building it when I graduated. And then Tuesday, E&Y is taking Matt out to lunch again.
So if you know Matt, he is definitely loving all of the attention. I just kind of have missed cooking dinner this week :)
He also was nominated and elected as BYU ASM Co-President (Association for Systems Management) for the next year, and he accepted even though it is going to be more to add to his load. But with this, he has a much better chance of being accepted into the Master's Program.
We are very happy for him and I am so proud of his hard work. I just feel like he is continually growing into an even better man every day.
As for me, I am just working along but kind of ready to explore some new career options. I am a little burnt out from the Heart Walk, more specifically the fundraising, and with limited options with the AHA right now, I have ventured out a little and put out my resume. I'm not sure what I want to do, or even if I really am ready to leave the AHA since it has been very good for me. But I just don't have the passion and energy I once had for my job. So I am opening the door in case I am supposed to move on.
We are looking forward to only one more week of work and school before we head out to Nor Cal to visit my family. I am so excited and can't wait to finally join in on the Adams Family Thanksgiving festivities again...including the annual soccer game.
We love you all and appreciate you all writing regularly. We love being able to keep in touch when everyone is busy and in all parts of the country.
Have a fantastic week!
