Breakin' Records

We, the Ford family, are breakin all sorts of records these days. The one we would like to highlight at this time is 2 posts in 24 hours. Now we know it's not much, but we're pretty happy about it. This post is actually dedicated to a few different people. First and foremost, I (Jon) would like to dedicate this post to the Andersons who made this all possible (you know who you are). Also, if anyone sees this who knows someone who has a similar addiction, my heart goes out to you. Secondly, Ashley would like to dedicate this to Tofu lovers everywhere.

Juneau Where We Are Going?

As many of you already know, we recently got offered an internship in Juneau, Alaska. After giving it some thought, we accepted the opportunity. We figure that this is the only time we'll be able to just drop everything and head off on an adventure, given the fact that I'll be a college grad come December, so in 18 days we'll be boarding a plane for Alaska. For those of you who are curious about what we'll be doing, please continue reading. For those of you who aren't, please scroll down, click on the post a comment link, and dazzle us with your wit.

The internship is with a company called Del Sol. Their products all change colors when exposed to the sun. As such, their stores are located in areas that are typically visited by tourists. Juneau happens to be a popular destination in the Alaskan cruise industry. Our main responsibility will just be working in the store in Juneau. We're pretty excited about this, and we imagine that we will meet our fair share of crazies, and be able to tell lots of interesting stories. In the event that we can't, we'll simply make things up and see how gullible our family and friends are. Aside from the retailing, the managers do a lot of marketing with the cruise ships, and I hope to be able to help out in this area.

That's about all we know about the internship at this point, so we hope you'll be excited for us and wish us luck.

Ahhhhhh....Memories

In honor of Kurt and Bonnie's recent wed, I thought that I would share with everyone some of the more memorable moments from their blissful day. So please, enjoy.


Here is Ashley and a relative, who's identity has been hidden for MY protection,

Thank you Mr. President

We'll admit, before blogging we had a hunch that people love our witty humor, and for the most part just can't get enough of us. Now that we've published our first post, that hunch has been confirmed. We just had no idea that people would be begging us to post again. So without further ado, here is a recount of our latest adventure...

In order to properly pay tribute to our past presidents, we hopped in the car with Julie and headed to the South to visit our Spanish brother San Jorge (you might know him better as St. George). We hiked, we ate, we watched movies, and we just sat around. It was as if our former president's said, "No, thank you for all you've done. We really appreciate it." It sure was nice of them. It really helped us to appreciate the true beauty of a 3-day weekend.












You'll notice that the picture of Ashley and Julie doesn't have a caption, but if it did, it would read:




Tricks that we can do and James can't

(Sorry Bec)

...so I guess it does have a caption.

The First of Many...


Howwwww. Seeing how this is our first post on our first blog, we thought that we should include howwwww grateful we are for all the people/things that made this post possible. First off, we'd like to thank our new computer and the blessed internet that made it all possible. Next on the list is the children we don't have. They're our inspiration for all we do. And last but not least, in no particular order: Maceys, the Native Americans, President Bush, Hillary Clinton, the black guy, Shawn, all our former pets, The National Council for Disease Prevention in Third World Countries, our Moms, James, the IRS, evolution, the Japanese, Pffff Changs, and above all, each other. Thanks for your support and remember that a waterfall is nothing more than a bunch of drips.
