Why is our blog title saying "the blog" before it in Google?

Google sometimes changes Titles of pages if they seem fit. For instance, this change in the title can happen if your url is listed on lets say DMOZ, and the title on that site says "The Blog" something...

So check out DMOZ and similar "trusted" directory like yahoo directory.

Google is known for changing the titles in its SERPs as well.

Those are called sitelinks, they are meant to help users navigate your site. Google analyzes the link structure of your site to find shortcuts that will save users time and allow them to quickly find the information they're looking for.
