Aligning Navigation and title

My header section is a bit messed up. My nav menu is being put below the actual title. I've tried changing the display to inline, but when i do this to the #navmenu it clears the color and completely remains the same.

I know there is probably an easy answer as for almost every question i have asked, but can someone please help me?

HTML:

<!DOCTYPE html>

<html>

    <head>
        <meta name="Description" content="This is your test website!"/>
        <meta name="author" content="Me!"/>
        <title>ReallyGoodPie | Home</title>
        <link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="css/style.css"/>
    </head>

    <body>

        <div id="wrapper">
            <nav id="navmenu">
            <div id="title">
                <h1>Title</h1>
            </div>

                <ul>
                    <li>Home</li>
                    <li>About</li>
                    <li>Tutorials</li>
                    <li>Services</li>
                    <li>Contact Us</li>
                </ul>
            </nav>

            <aside id="sidenews">

            </aside>

            <div id="center">

                <section id="mainsection">
                    <article>
                        <header>
                            <hgroup>
                                <h1>This is a test</h1>
                                <h2>I like tests!</h2>
                            </hgroup>
                        </header>
                        <section>
                            <p>This is the main section of my section (sectception)</p>
                        </section>
                        <footer>
                            <p>Time and date</p>
                        </footer>
                    </article>
                </section>

            </div>

            <footer id="cright">
                <p>This is the copyright section. All rights reserved.</p>
            </footer>

Move your title to outside of navmenu if you want it on top, or underneath if you want underneath 

          <div id="wrapper">
          <div id="title">
                    <h1>Title</h1>
                </div>
            <nav id="navmenu">

                <ul>
                    <li>Home</a>
                    <li>About</li>
                    <li>Tutorials</li>
                    <li>Services</li>
                    <li>Contact Us</li>
                </ul>

Set the float property on navmenu ul and title to left

#title{
    text-align: left;
    padding: 0;
    padding-top: 10px;
    padding-left: 10px;
    width: 100px;
    float: left;
}

#navmenu ul{
    padding-right: 10px;
    float:left;
}

If I understand your "question" you want the title to be left of the navigation? In which case you need to use:

#title
{
    float: left;
}
