I decided I needed to start blogging all the funny things Ben does. He keeps us very entertained with all the funny things he does. I have been trying really hard to take pictures of them so I could show everyone else.

He broke me in quickly the week after we were married by always sculpting his shaving cream to show me the beards he is going to grow for real. He has stopped doing this except for when he has plenty of time to kill. He makes sure I get to see them before he shaves them off though.

This was our gourmet breakfast for our first couple days of being in our apartment. We brought back Krispy Kremes from Utah and only took the time to stop and grab milk on the way back into town late. The only cups we had were the fake champagne glasses I got with sparkling cider for my bridal shower so that's what we used. We like to class up our donuts and milk.

 

Ben was excited when he found the apron I got for my bridal shower. It says "My little black apron" and has pearls around the neck. You can't see it great in the picture. He went and put on a pink shirt special just for the picture.

I made Ben buy a helmet before he could ride his bike to work. He was all excited to buy all his bike gear. He bought a helmet, speedometer, and lights for his bike. He thought it would be funny to come out wearing it like he already wrecked. He hasn't ridden his bike since he bought the helmet. I must have ruined the thrill of the risk for him.

We inherited this old tv from Ben's sister Nikki who was nice enough to let us have it.

It was ginormous and extremely heavy. It took both of us to move it and it made our tv stand we bought bow a little scarily. Ben decided that it would not do and that we needed to buy a new tv with our tax rebate.

Here is our new tv. We hooked it up to the surround sound system his sister Roxie gave us. We broke it in with a movie Matney gave us for Christmas. It took a while to get the surround sound working right but it worked great after Ben played with it for a while. Just getting a new tv wasn't enough for Ben though. We had to make a party of it. So our bed was moved from here....

 to here. Ben said it was more like a sleepover that way.

We do enjoy our new tv and luckily after a couple days of camping on the living room floor I convinced him our bed needed to move back. Ben's parents gave us a couch that now suffices to watch movies on so we don't have to have "sleepovers" every time we watch a movie.

Ben also loves playing video games on our tv with his Sega and new Wii. When we first got the Wii all he did was play Mario. Luckily he has slowed down a bit, but I still was able to sneak this picture of him playing Sonic the other day. I thought he looked like a little kid sitting on his legs right up to the tv playing his game. He makes me smile.

After being married for one month Ben brought me home this rose from work. It sat on the table in a cup for a couple days before we bought a vase for it.

Then one week later, Ben brought me home these roses for Valentines day complete with vase, monkey, and a bow. They are super flowers because one month later they still look good and are even starting to grow new leaves.

After Ben took the monkey off the flowers he decided the pink bow around its neck was dumb so he took it off. I jokingly said I liked the bow so Ben went to work to tie it back on.... I thought. After a couple minutes Ben brought me back the monkey looking like this...

He said the tie was much more manly and cool for the monkey. I agreed and now he sits on my nightstand. Ben is so creative, the tie looks really good.

That sums up all the cute/funny things that have happened that I have remembered to get a picture of lately. I'm sure there have been plenty more that happened when we weren't around the camera. Life has been fun and interesting!
