Marley and Me

When Colleen turned two John applied for a job in a Pennsylvania and got it so he and his family packed up and moved. As they were getting ready to board the plane one of the workers said Marley was too big for his cage and could not go on the plane. John begged with her and luckily she let him on. then right after this happened the boys frogs got loose and John and Jenny were on their knees trying to catch them. They caught the frogs and almost missed their flight. When they were finally on the plane and all settled they heard a noise from down below and knew that it was Marleys.
It was around Christmas time and the kids were waiting for it to snow. they had never seen snow before and their parents had told them it would be coming. On christmas day there was still no snow. For chirstmas the kids got a toboggan and snow gear but they couldn't use it. Finally 3 weeks after New years it snowed ,the kids woke up early and the whole family went out and played in the snow. John even took a turn on the sled and so did Marley, they went down together and crashed, but no one was hurt, marley seemed to enjoy it. Towards the end of the winter John could tell Marley was getting old. He could barley make it up the hill he once so easily could.

The Grogan family had many funny moments and all of them contained Marley. He made them happy and smile even though he could be a pain in the but. He had been there through the beginning of their life together and became a big part of who they became. slowly he was beginning to get old and not act as much like a puppy, he was still as hyper and badly trained though.
