About the van… yeah… well…
The van started missing really badly… I mean really badly! We took it in to the shop, and to make a long story short, the cost of fixing the van was going to be upward of $1500.00. Not the kind of money we wanted to sink into a vehicle with 250,000 miles on it.
Enter the new car. It’s a 2003 Mazda ProtegĂ©. We didn’t really need a mini van anyway at this point in our lives. We figure by the time our family grows large enough for a mini van (if the Lord blesses us) it will be time to trade my Escort in…
Here’s the new car:

Yes, I know I’m overdue on posting pictures… or even just posting at all.
Well, for now, just head over to my Brother-in-law’s blogs and check out these two posts:

YES! My MacBook Pro is maxed out on RAM, and currently has the biggest hard drive one can put in a laptop! It really is amazing. I bought 4 gigs of RAM for $88.00. That’s like dirt cheap… does anyone remember so many moons ago (say like 4 years) when 4 gigs of RAM was something akin to $400.00? Yeah… it’s amazing. And it’s not like my computer was slow or anything, but going from 2 gigs to 4 gigs is just an amazing difference.
I was also running out of hard drive space, so I order the Western Digital 320 Scorpio. $129.00. Amazing… I moved a bunch of stuff of my external drives and back onto my laptop hard drive (like all my photos) and still have 85 gigs free! I’m elated!

My brother-in-law just launched his new site design. Frankly, I think it looks great. And he does really great photography work… the best actually. Make sure you hire him if you need any photography work done!

Looky what I found while sorting through my pictures in iPhoto (that would have been about the time I was looking through the wedding pictures as well
)

Today is our third anniversary. Time flies!
We aren’t celebrating till Friday though because we decided I could take off work and have a three day weekend!
But, I did go looking through the wedding photos and thought I would post a few here for you, my dear readers.
