So this past weekend was a big weekend for both Jenn and I. We have not yet lived on our own so we have been highly anticipating the day where we would rent our buy our first place. Well we decided that we wanted to rent an apartment for a while and get settled after getting married in September before thinking of buying a place. We have gone through so many different plans, and so many different options that we are just happy to have landed a place. We chose to rent an apartment at The Colony in Newport Beach a small community across the street from Fashion Island and about 2 miles from the beach. It is a little of a hike in terms of driving from work, but we cannot wait to enjoy the weekends down there!

I don't know about you but I am not a big fan of budgets. Its not that I don't see the usefulness, I do, its that it means I have to watch every penny I spend. Jenn and I are working really hard both at work and on our budget. We are looking at getting our first apartment this summer and our main goal is to have plenty of money to furnish the place really nice. So we have scheduled a budget for the coming months that we are going to try and stick to to the best of our ability.

It is with great joy that I write this post today, as Jenn and I have completed our six week Pre-Marital class that we have taken at the church we attend The Grove. We have loved attending The Grove over the past 3-4 years, we feel it is a really great moving stone forward in our faith and has been a true blessing for both Jenn and I. With that being said this class has been a little disappointing. That is not to say that Jenn and I took away nothing from the experience it was just a really hard time for Jenn to be taking the class. Jenn's new job at SCE has been tough on her, who is to blame she takes the train at 6:00AM each morning and doesn't get home until 6:45pm and works extremely hard so the weekend is her time to just relax, so I can't say we were going into this with complete open arms.

I sat for a good ten or fifteen minutes before writing this post. I just am not sure what to write about today. I know I have gone a few days without a post, but I feel like I have nothing interesting to say or at least not enough for my typical post length, so I am going to break it down into a few smaller posts in one.

I hate the Dentist. This kid may hate the Dentist after the drugs wear off and he is old enough to understand how many people have watched him on YouTube. I was on Twitter yesterday and one of the people I followed linked to this video of "David After Dentist" its of this young kid who is still a little drowsy after surgery. Some of the things the kid says and does is rather comical and is all in good fun. I hope you enjoy this clip.

I started my new job at Southern California Edison at the beginning of December and boy has it been a wild ride ever since. I really enjoy my new job but I got put in part of a project that was already missing key dates and was put on the team to help get back up to speed and finish the project. Well this week marks the definite due date of this project and the last few weeks has been full of some really long hours. This is the second 50+ hour work week which is fine but it means I really have to maximize my weekend and this past weekend I feel like I really did.
