Tuesday, August 25, 2015. Family Road Trip - Aspen, The Continental Divide, And Colorado Springs. Our trip was winding down to the last couple of days and we were off to our last destination. (if you are starting with this final leg of the trip, there are 5 previous posts of our road trip). Our drive from Aspen to Colorado Springs included a trip over Independence Pass. It was a little scary at times, but the views were unbelievable. Bunny ears. :). It started snowing on us! It was an amazing trip. K...

Ford, Jenn & Kaia: May 2014
http://fordandjenn.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
Tuesday, May 27, 2014. It was a long weekend full of activity at home: softball game, flower picking, flower planting, hanging out with friends, popsicles outside, and running in the sprinklers. Summer's almost here, and it finally feels like it. :). Carefully picking dandelion fluff. She was a fairy who makes clothes out of the fluff. Ford was the holder of the fluff and other flowers she found along the way. Holding her four and five leaf clovers. One of the four leaf clovers Kaia found. Lucky girl!

Rolfsrud Friends & Family: August 2015
http://rolfsruds.blogspot.com/2015_08_01_archive.html
Rolfsrud Friends and Family. Shakopee, Minnesota - Hosted by Stan and Kathleen Rolfsrud. Monday, August 31, 2015. Rose Bowl veteran tackles Marschall Road. Tom Tiegen in Gophers cap. That's his machine in the back. It will soon grind up the road he's standing on. They'll use it to refill the 24 inch deep trench it is making now. Ewildered, the little old lady stopped her car in the middle of the construction zone. The man in the pickup truck edged up close behind her and honked his horn. He's covered a l...

http://fordandjenn.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
Monday, October 20, 2014. A Magnificent Display Of Fall Color. It's a three post day. Scroll down to see the two posts below to catch up on our weekend activities.). Speaking of leaves, Kaia and I trekked out to the Arboretum (seemingly along with everyone else in Minnesota) yesterday after the corn maze. Ford spent his afternoon golfing with a good friend, so we were leaf lookers. Surreal. I asked her to pose by the tree. She interpreted that as pose with the tree. Ok, so we have to start packing. T...

He tall government agent was deep in the reeds this morning, feverishly sampling the waters, looking for clues, working her scoop back and forth, protected only by a pair of sturdy hip waders. A paid killer with her command vehicle and bucket. Metropolitan Mosquito Control at your service. Who was that Everyday Hero? Our new hous...

Ravis will be here tomorrow, so the rush was on to get the counter-tops in place, along with the 20 amp circuits, hot and cold, and drain.

Ford, Jenn & Kaia: Indiana, Here She Comes!
http://fordandjenn.blogspot.com/2015/08/indiana-here-she-comes.html
Monday, August 3, 2015. Indiana, Here She Comes! Well, it's August and that means Kaia's on her 3rd annual trip to Indiana. Every year, my mom has flown up to pick up Kaia and fly her back to Indiana. She says it's so she can see Grandpa Trent, Nana Mickey, and Aunt Charolette and Uncle Rob. We know it's really a thinly veiled attempt to kidnap our daughter and keep her. Good try, Murmans. Good try. The famous spoon bridge and cherry. On the large swing. Ford and Snowey, looking very excited. Then, it wa...

Ford, Jenn & Kaia: July 2014
http://fordandjenn.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
Wednesday, July 30, 2014. Off To The Races. We've lived in our city for 5 years and until Sunday we had never made it out to the horse races. It was family day so we picked up one of Kaia's friends and headed to the track. The girls had a lot of fun meeting mascots, riding ponies, and occasionally sitting down long enough to watch a horse race or two. It's definitely a place we will visit again in the future. They just spotted the mascots. They were off! A butterfly for Raelynn. Posted by Ford and Jenn.

Ford, Jenn & Kaia: How To Teach A Dog To Swim
http://fordandjenn.blogspot.com/2015/07/how-to-teach-dog-to-swim.html
Monday, July 27, 2015. How To Teach A Dog To Swim. Drive around for 2-3 hours trying to find a park that will let a dog swim with you. When everything fails, go to the lake 20 minutes away. Note the level of the kid's excitement is still running high. The dog is a little unsure of what's going to happen. Throw a floating toy into the lake and hope that the retriever part of your dog shows up. Will she go for it? Will she do more than just stomp through the water? She's at it again. Watch out, Snowey!
