Oopsie Daisy ...

So, it was inevitable ... I AM from Texas and have NEVER driven in snow before. To be quite honest, I'm suprised I made it this long. But yes, the snow finally got the best of me. This morning on my way to work I accidentally slammed on my brakes as a car in front of me was fishtailing - sending me into the ditch and the other car on his jolly way. Luckily, I was a mile from home and Pete, so he came to rescue me. I am thankful that I wasn't hurt and that I didn't hit another car. We are waiting to see the damage that I caused so cross your fingers that it is just a couple of scratches and not something serious. The cop that stopped to help me confused me by telling me that it was a "no parking zone" and then told me he was going to write me a ticket because I went OU (apparently a TX fan)! At least I got my first wreck out of the way. Hopefully I learned my lesson and will now be a snow-driving machine!

Nicole Came to Town!

After much begging and pleading, Nicole, my bff finally came to see us in Colorado! We had so much fun! It was a weekend full of laughing, drinking, movie quoting, Easter Egg dying and random song singing - although the Spice Girls CD did not surface - maybe next trip!

Yea, that's Pike's Peak!

"You push on me and I'll push on you and we'll climb" Ya, not when you squish me Nicole!

My New Addiction

Red Box is the greatest thing ever! We have one right by our house and have probably rented 5 movies a week for the past 3 weeks! I am so excited for all of the movies that are about to be released - today Slumdog Millionaire and Seven Pounds come out! Last night we rented Bolt (not my favorite).  I was so disappointed, there have been such great animated movies lately like Kung Fu Panda, Madagascar 2 and Horton Hears a Who, but this one was no so great.  And, once I realized it was Miley Cyrus' voice, it made me hate it more.  Oh well, it was a Monday free rental! If you sign up at insideredbox.com you get emails every Monday with a promo code for a free rental.  And, in the month of March you get a free rental every Wednesday also! We are loving the cheap entertainment!     

Finally Look Like a Lukeman

Growing up, my lovely sisters told me I was adopted. It was easy to believe, I had blonde hair (unlike every other person in my family) and I was taller than both of them once I hit 8th grade. Well sistas, look at me now! Now that I am a Furseth, I finally look like 'Lukeman Girl'!

Blizzard? What does that mean?

For some reason, every time Pete goes out of town, something happens. This past time was my first experience with a blizzard. What? Blizzard? I thought those only happened in the winter and in places like Fargo, ND? Not the weekend after 80degree weather when I got a sunburn! So, after rejoicing from getting out of work a whole hour early, I came home and prepared for the "storm". All in all, it wasn't that big of a deal. Driving wasn't too fun, but it was fun watching Remmi eat the snow.

Don't ask me why I'm doing this...

So, I'm bored and enjoy stalking, I mean, reading all of my friends' blogs, so I decided to start one for us.  We don't have any kids or anything exciting going on right now, but maybe blogging about our life will make it seem that much more exciting! I'm sure Pete will be thrilled to know I started this and I doubt he will contribute, but I will be sure to tell you all about his life! :)  More to come, I just have to figure out how to make this page cute, add pictures and think of some interesting things to say!
