We Think We're Funny: July 2013

Shocker. Jon & I still think we're funny. And my mom makes a guest appearance.

After seeing this photo:
Jonathan: I look old and tired. I'm decaying already!

Noticing our fully painted wall & our stripe-y wall:
Mom: You guys painted this wall!
Jonathan: It was like that when you came over last weekend.
Mom: Really? Hey! What happened to this wall (looking at the half done wall).
Berennisse: It was like that last weekend. You didn't notice?

When I asked Jon to finish painting the living room:
Berennnisse: Babe, if you buy the paint today I'll finish painting.
Jonathan: No.
Berennisse: Why? I'm trying to help.
Jonathan: You don't do it right.
Berennisse: So you'll paint today?
Jonathan: Sigh. Maybe.

After Jon enters the living room with a glass of wine:
Berennisse: Babe, I said I didn't want any.
Jonathan: I know. Its for me.
Berennisse: Thought you felt nauseated?
Jonathan: Oh, I know its not good idea!

As Poseidon and I are on his evening walk:
Berennisse: Poseidon, sit! Stay, I want to take a photo. (bike whizzes behind us)
Poseidon: (jumps and hides behind his human)

Poseidon: (stares after the rider and snorts) 

After running an errand at Costco:
Berennisse: We can have dinner here if you want?
Jonathan: YES! I love Costco!
(check out the sheer joy on Jon's face)

We Think We're Funny: June 2013

Jonathan and I shared some of our funny (at least to us) conversations last month. We liked it so much we decided to do it again each month from now on.

Until we no longer think we're funny....

In regards to our shutter project:

Jonathan: This is the worst project we've ever done! This is my most hated project so far.

Berennisse: What was it before?

Jonathan: Nothing. I knew this was waiting for me.

Discussing watching The Last Stand & painting the entryway:
Jonathan: Want to watch the movie and then paint?
Berennisse: Why don't we watch the movie while we paint?
Jonathan: What! I'm not going to paint while I watch Schwarzenegger. He deserves my full attention!

While cleaning our bathroom:
Jonathan: Your hair is beautiful but its from the devil!

After viewing our shutter recap video:
Berennisse: My favorite part is where you said, "got your approval."
Jonathan: I said that? Damn.

While assembling the dining chairs:
Berennisse: Babe, why do two of those chairs have holes on the seats?
Jonathan: They were $15! They're cheap.
---Two days later---
Berennisse: Do you think those holes on the chairs are where the arms go?
Jonathan: Ohhhh, you're right!

After I caught him wearing his birthday cheesehead while playing video games:
Berennisse: Why are you wearing your cheesehead?
Jonathan: I just felt like wearing it.
Berennisse: Isn't it too early for football?
Jonathan: Its never too early for football!

We Think We're Funny: May 2013

Someone once told me couples that laugh together, last together. Luckily Jonathan and I think we're hilarious!

While we were working on the cover patio...
Jonathan: Babe. What are you doing?
Berennisse: Why you worry about Behr? Don't worry about me!
Jonathan: You're my wife! I have to worry about you.

Berennisse: Babe, rub my belly.
Jonathan: Rub your belly?
Berennisse: Yeah, like a Buddha! A Behr-da!!!

Jonathan: For my birthday can you buy me a squirrel suit?
Berennisse: Like "Hey little buddy! Want a nut?" suit?
Jonathan: I see how you can think that.... (Proceeds to explain what it really is) but if you got me what you were thinking I'd probably rock that!

Berennisse: Jon! Kate (my Kate Spade purse) is on the floor!
Jonathan: Kate was in the way. She's fine.
Berennisse: Kate is NOT OKAY.

When I bought our new dining table and chairs...
Jonathan: Hey babe, did you get the table?
Berennisse: Yeah! But guess what? Those chairs I liked? The ones I thought were $100 for the pair? They were way cheaper!
Jonathan: Oh, how much were they?
Berennisse: $30 for the pair!!!!
Jonathan: You bought six, didn't you?
Berennisse: They're in the car right now!
