Update

More than likely, once I start writing this, I'll remember some interesting stuff, forget a lot of stuff, get tired because there is too much to write about and then stop. So, I'm going to write out a few bullet points of topics to include and if I don't finish writing about them, at least you can read about the bullet points and get a gist of our recent lives (if you rely on our blog to keep up with us).

Our last real update was the beginning of November. Here's what's happened since (the very brief pictureless version... we haven't been very good at taking pictures):


  • Our Niece Haily was baptized therefore we had a Sabey reunion in Idaho
  • Christmas break in Tucson - We had a great time with Mom Sabey, Nana and Papa, the Schafers, and the PK Burnetts. Then we spent New Years with the RJ Burnetts. Some highlights - Croquet on Christmas day, seeing friends and family, going to the gym with Mom and playing racquetball, going to the BYU basketball game with mom, playing games with the nieces and nephews, sleeping in, making homemade stockings, visiting our friends Candace and Evan in St John's Arizona... Oh Christmas Break how we miss you!
  • Sister's Weekend... I hadn't seen my sister Julee since my wedding two and a half years ago. We found some cheap tickets and decided to have a rendezvous in Arizona at Laurel's place. Well others found out about the weekend and it turned into a "sister's day" and family weekend. It was fabulous! And I got to meet our nephew Isaac.
  • Grad school applications are finished and we have been invited to interviews at four of the five schools and we ares till waiting to hear back from the last school.

  • Allen has been working with a professor and a research team writing a paper about prejudices in Psychology against theism. He just presented the paper in Las Vegas. It was perfect timing because he had a Ultimate Frisbee tournament in Vegas the same weekend... too bad the tournament got cancelled due to rain.

  • BYU basketball - We have become fans of BYU basketball. We were able to go to the game in Arizona where Fridette scored 49 points. Ever since then we have been enjoying our Cougars! Allen even stood in line for 3 hours for the UofU game. Oh how we are going to miss our BYU sporting events.

Well that is about it for now...
