The Holidays are over...

Well, Josh and I are now back into the daily grind of married life and everything that goes with it. For the past 8 months its been go go go with planning the wedding, getting married, going on our honeymoon and then with all the holidays Josh and I are trying to figure out what to do with our lives besides work! We are finding that this whole "grown up" thing is'nt that fun after all especially when it comes to filling taxes, Josh and I both expected a very nice return this year and were very dissappointed to find out we were'nt getting even half of what we thought we were. Dang government takes all your money when you get married. We are trying to save up enough to buy Josh a new car cash his "free" car won't go into reverse or any other gear exept drive. hehe. poor thing. :( He's such a good man, just a few months ago the transmission in my honda went out and I went and bought a new car. I'm very impatient. But, Josh is much smarter then me and is willing to wait for what he really wants. Hopefully he will have his car but Feburary. Were kinda debating to let it die or try to trade it in...I think were going to start car shopping on sunday.

So I know I wrote in an earlier blog about my wedding video being shot in resoultion but guess what!!! It was'nt I don't know what happened but the rough draft dvd that the videographer gave me was awful but when I got my money back and took the "raw footage" to a place who converted it to a dvd the footage was fine. You can imagine how thankful I was but seriously what a bunch of dummies Lumina photography is. If they would have tried to help in any way they would have figured it out themselves and probably got some if not all of their money! Some buisnesses just can't take responsiblity for their mistakes and unfourtunatly Lumina Photography is one of them.

Anyway other then those things the Ryen household is doing very well. We signed another lease here in lovely renton since our rent only went up 15.00 it made since to just stay put and save more money. The apartment complex is getting remodeled meanwhile and so that will be nice once it's all done. Were sad to hear Josh's parents are moving to Texas in less then a month. Those two are always moving on short notice...but we love em anyway. I guess it's time we share them...hehe. We will see them Christmas as Josh and I plan to venture out their for a week or two. Life is going by so fast, I just can't believe how time flys by. It's amazing to look back on my life and see how far I've come in my life. I'm sure its the same for Josh as well. We have both made some bad decisions but in the end the man upstairs was sure looking out for us and we both are very thankful for where we have ended up.
