1. We're Going to Miami
Bouncing in the club where the heat is on, all night on the beach til the break of dawn is the lifestyle we're going to take on soon. I found out last week that I got a 6 month internship with Citigroup Latin America in their Miami office. Yes, that Citigroup that recently fired 52,000 employees. I have a feeling I'll be doing a little more work than originally expected.
The office is right in the middle of downtown so we're looking at a place around there. We were looking for a place somewhere in the below picture but we just found out that it is a very "european beach" (tops are optional). 
"South beach, bring the heat uh, can ya'll fell that, can ya'll feel that"
"Miami the city that keeps the roof blazin"
Who's the kid in the drop, who else Will Smith!
The internship goes from January 14th to July 10th. It looks like I won't be home for Michael's homecoming. D'oh! Well, I missed his farewell so I guess this keeps things balanced. If anyone has been to Florida and has some suggestions of things we could for fun, feel free to lets us know!2. Jackie's teeth are white
Jackie has been to the dentist three times in the last couple of weeks. Each time it has been less painful for her. Jackie had a little yellow spot on her front tooth for most of her life and on the second visit, the dentist told her he could get rid of it for her. She went in on Wednesday and the dentist fixed it.

Looking good!3. I was reunited with my favorite sweatshirt
Last March we drove down to the Phoenix area with some friends to watch a couple of spring training baseball games. It was a wonderful trip as usual but as we were leaving, I realized I had left my sweatshirt at Jackie's grandma's house. After 8, long months without it, Grandma Steiner sent it to us in the mail, and she even stuffed it with some fruit snacks! Double bonus!
So comfortable. Thank you Grandma Steiner!4. We had a great Thanksgiving
As I was doing a little blog hopping this morning, I realized I am quite a slacker. Every blog I went to already had a thanksgiving post up and several even had "the rest of the weekend" and "I'm so glad it's December" posts up. I think I would have been more motivated but I didn't really take any pictures this weekend on my camera. I brought it to California but forgot to get it out. However, my Dad and sister took pictures of our weekend and those pictures can be seen at emmettville and kristin's blog. I did pull out the camera when we got home so I could document our "African refugee" imitation, seen below.

We drove my brother's truck down so we could bring up the remaining odds and ends for a family that recently moved from Irvine to Salt Lake. My Dad did a great packing job and was able to fit all of it in the truck.5. I got a half tuition check from BYU today
I applied for a general scholarship with BYU over the summer and was turned down. I already had a half scholarship I earned last year from being in the real estate fianance track so I didn't think too much about it. Anyways, I found out that they had more money in their budget than expected so they decided to award me another half tuition scholarhip halfway through the semester. If you've done your math right, 1/2 + 1/2 = full scholarship. This refund came at the right time as we prepare for Miami.

Miami! You are moving even further away!!!!!! This distresses me, however, if you guys are excited, I will be excited too!
We will miss you for the 6 months but hope it turns out to be a good experience and leads to something even better. Maybe you could get into the moving business - you are already experienced. Jackie has a fetching smile and the picture proves that the dentist did a good job.
I always loved your smile Jackie, but now it's just that much more incredible! Awesome!
Sounds like tons of blessings in your life right now! So cool.
adios a miami
So I'm missing what the downside is to a European beach.
The truck never looked so good once it lost it's refugee status.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!! I'm going to miss you so much!!!!!!!
you left me!! I came all the way here from Taiwan and what do you do? Move to the other side of the country!! Come home soon!
