I'M THE NEWEST.....

..... INTERN AT FOX10 NEWS!

That's right, yours truly will be working with Ron Hoon, Rick D'Amico, and Alexis DelChiaro on Monday mornings in the newsroom and Kari Lake and John Hook on Tuesday afternoons/evenings in the newsroom. I can't wait. I start on Monday. Wahoo!

You might think I'm a news dork....

AND I AM!

I LOVE THE NEWS!

And yes, I do know all their names at FOX10 News! They are my favorite for sure. I watch FOX10 religiously, in the morning while I get ready and either at 9:00pm or 10:00pm every night. I'm doing the internship for credit for school, but hope that it might turn into a real job someday. I'm excited to see what this new internship brings and what I'm going to learn. Wish me luck!

Side note: I practically have to buy a brand new wardrobe for said internship.... Apparently, jeans and t-shirts are not considered professional. Dang! Wish me luck in the shopping department as well. Business slash profesh clothes, here I come!

Cali, Baby!

Last week, we returned from a much needed, week-long vaca to San Diego with the Johnson fam. I won't overwhelm you with the nearly 100 pictures, but just a few to give you an idea of the fun we had at the Del Mar beach, La Jolla Beach, Carlsbad outlets, and tons of other fun!

We are already ready for next year's trip... And hopefully a trip really soon with the Romney side! Get better soon, Dad!

A LONG Overdue Post...

It has been WAY too long since I last updated and lots of fun things have happened...

We went to the Diamondbacks game with Aaron and Chanelle - Thanks for inviting us! It was fun, even though we lost horribly. We had sweet seats! Thanks again!

Then we went to Tyler's Aunt Fernie and Uncle Dean's cabin in Strawberry in June with Melanie and Jake. It was nice to get out of the heat for the weekend. Melanie and I intently read Twilight (Amelia) and New Moon (Melanie) while the boys went on an adventure in the woods in the dark. We played games on Saturday night then went to the Natural Bridge on Sunday morning. It was pretty cool, even though I'm not an outdoors-y girl. And we made friends with a chipmunk/squirrel after feeding him a granola bar. He loved us!

Then, my awesome mom took Amanda and me to the American Idol concert. It was so much fun. It was more than 3 hours long of singing and rocking out. I loved it. For a better re-cap, check this posting from my mom... http://stuphfromsteph.blogspot.com/2008/07/idols.html. Her description matches mine and she has better pictures too!

Other than that, we have just been working and going to school, like always. Nothing too exciting, except for the fact that we are going to California this weekend for a whole week and can't wait! More updating to come when we return from a week of fun in the sun...
