Welcome to the Barnes' Yard

So...We have succumbed to this insane blog world. I don't know how good I'll be at this, or how regularly I'll post, but I thought I'd give it a whirl. We figured that someone somewhere might be bored enough to want to know what's going on with us. Who's "us?" you ask. Well, "us" is Matt and Alida Barnes. We are insanely in love and are so thankful to have one another.




"Us" in a nutshell:

Who: Matt and Alida

Where: Pasadena, CA

Married: 6 years

Occupations: PhD Student/Speech-Language Pathologist

Children: Heck no, but we have a fabulous 5-year-old miniature schnauzer named Sunnie Bernice

Likes: Jesus Christ and all that he encompasses, reading, eating, cooking, football, chatting, deep thinking, traveling, learning

Dislikes: spending money, superficiality, social pressure, getting less sleep than we need

We hope you enjoy our crazy life in the Barnes' Yard.

Sunnie Bernice.....why does she often look at us so bewildered?
