BERRYMAN BUGS

2009 is wrapping up and it has been one interesting year. In January Vince turned 26 and less than a month later Sarah turned 25. I think it finally hit us that we are those old married boring people. Oh well, *WE* think we're fun. the year went by FAST! Vince has a new job, Sarah moved up in her job (then didn't move up again like she she applied for at the end of the year but she's not bitter... grrrr). We added to our vehicle collection twice this year with Sarah's scooter and Vince's Toyota Corolla which matches nicely with Sarah's Toyota Corolla. We're healthy, happy, and still the funniest couple you'll ever meet!

...oh, you wanted to know about the dogs? Frank has gained enough weight to now be on the small end of the healthy pug range. He enjoys sitting on Sarah's lap, curling up on her feet, and following her around. We call him "Velcro-pug!". Penny isn't a puppy anymore but trying telling her that! She has lots of energy and is always ready to pounce on anything that happens to move. She enjoys wrestling with Frank, then curling up with him for naps, and "herding" everyone around by pulling on their pant legs. And yes, she knows how cute she is and has Vince wrapped around her paw completely. Olie learned a few new tricks recently, he first learned how to jump over the dog gate that blocks the basement theater room. We are not amused by this, and he is learning this trick is "naughty". His second trick is a more positive one, he can balance a dog snack on his nose and wait for instructions to shake it off and eat it. This took some tries because Penny thought "if he wont eat it, I will" and often tried to snatch a free treat. Olie still insists that the loveseat is HIS loveseat, and can often be found sleeping in it after he has run laps in the back yard area. Both Olie and Frank enjoy playing "chase" with the Pitbull on the other side of the fence. They will run back and forth the length of the fence all together, and now Frank sometimes does it even when Mr. Pitbull isn't there.

We wish everyone a happy and safe new years! We're hoping to make 2010 the best year yet! But we can't tell you our resolutions, or you'll hold us to them ;-)

This week is...

OUR 3 YEAR ANNIVERSARY!!!!



(more fun posts to come)

 I think my eyemakeup looks awesome

Sometimes in life there is no reason to do a blog post. Now is not one of those times. Look, a photo... Poor pug, will he even stop being my source of entertainment?

Answer: No.

Here's a cute lil' snapshot I captured of our furrballs this morning with my cell phone. It isn't high quality, but the blog hasn't been updated in awhile and it is rare to get these three in a photo together due to the high energy of all three- especially Penny!

Things are going well over here. Vince started his new job last week and Sarah is adjusting to another semester of teaching. We can't believe it is already September!

We have been debating about getting a new (used) car so Sarah can escape the dreaded rides in our cities unreliable stinky buses. We opted for a little powder blue scooter instead, what do you think?

Happy after-Easter 2009! While our Easter wasn't traditional we sure had a lot of fun. We watched a horribly bad alien movie with friends, played in a toy store, ate Mexican food, and went bowling. The next day we got 75% off pre-filled Easter baskets for each of us. Sarah's is Crayola Art themed with paper, crayons, pencils, markers, and chalk. It also was a cute wooden crayola box . Oh yes, it also had a giant stuffed blue crayon! Vincent's basket was toy themed with a shooting darts toy, spinny tops, sticky goo, and candies. We're secretly five years old, shhh....

Sarah caught on the I-Mac of us looking almost ready to go.
