This photo WILL make you smile!

It is almost impossible to get a photo of our two dogs together looking normal (no red eye, blinking, wandering away...) so Sarah was snap-happy when these two were curled up together. Kodak moment, right? Not so much. Although they mostly stood still, after about 100 shots this is the ONLY good one:

But it sure does capture them well and makes ya smile, right? Also, the quality is bad because its a webcam shot of the camera's digital display. Sarah can't find the cord to make the file really live on the computer. But you get the idea.

Once there was a snowman..snowman...

Once there was a snowman, snowman...
Once there was a snowman tall, tall, tall...
Then one day he melted, melted...
Then on day he melted small, small, small....
(I will never forget the time the missionaries had dinner at my In-laws house and they asked me to pick a church song for them to sing. I requested the snowman song. I told them it was my favorite.)

We've been doing pretty well with the packing so far. Sarah packs up during the day, then has Vince move the boxes to wherever they need to be when he gets home. Vince moved these boxes to the top of the 3rd level stairs, and Sarah, seeing the artistic opportunity, turned them into a snowman- scarf and all. Frank decided to pose adorably, as you can see. I think he has a new friend.

"Don't forget to pack me!"


Penny doesn't understand this whole moving process. She jumps in boxes as we pack them. Here she is sitting in a box of Vince's wires and electronic doodads. Don't worry, Penny, we won't forget to bring you along to the new house!

Spring Snip, Cut, N' Style..

I think every Spring we end up cutting our hair and every time I whine right after that I let them cut it too short. This year I think it is just right. My bangs are fuller than they look in the photo because I pushed them back, but its cute either way. Vince got rid of the "hairy beast" look and now has a cut faux hawk again. LOVE IT! He looks like a grown up Jack-Jack from the incredibles, doesn't he?
Notice the amazing colorful lamp and scrapbooking tower... the Mac is now in my scrapbook nook. :) Also, what is with the weird face I'm making? What is it about camera that makes me always pucker my lips like that? And where am I looking? This picture has 'special' written all over it.

Happy St. Patricks Day


How did we celebrate St. Pats? Well, Sarah went to work decked out in Green!!! The school she works at doesn't allow the celebration of holidays (I know.. that is SO un-Sarahish!) sooooo Green Eyeshadow ( so tacky, yet so wonderful), Green earrings, Green necklace, Green shirts, Green toe socks!  Dressing in green was just some kind of "coincidence"!

Here comes 2010...

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 ;-)
