Spooner Rodeo Parade 2018

Attending the Spooner Rodeo parade is a summer tradition for the Jacobs family.   We sat with Grandma and Grandpa Jacobs and the Post family and had the treat of watching Kai march with the Spooner Boy Scouts carrying a flag at the head of the parade with the Amvets.

Posts’ Visit

Our first weekend back we hosted the Post family.   It was great seeing Lea Ann, Steven and the cousins, Nina and Sara.  

Post-Wiemann Family Visit

Our first weekend back we hosted a Jacobs-Post-Wiemann-Berryman family gathering on Bass Lake.

Jacobs-Wiemann-Post Christmas

Lea Ann, Steven, Paul, Nina and Sara came for a visit on Dec 20 for an early Christmas celebration.  There was a roast turkey that barely fit in the oven, hot chocolate, fun on the frozen lake and early Christmas presents.  Enjoy the pictures!

Arlington Visit

We just got back from a visit to Arlington, MN to visit Grandma Wiemann and the Posts.   Enjoy the pictures.

Forts Folle Avoine Rendezvous

Last weekend was the annual Rendezvous at the Forts Folle Avoine just up the road from our house.   As is now traditional the Post family joined us for what turned out to be a few days of fun (and record breaking cold temperatures).

Double Rainbow!

Lea Ann, Nina and Sara Post came to visit.   The weather was on the cool side but was perfect for a campfire and, after a gentle sprinkle of rain, there was a double rainbow behind the house.

2012 Christmas at the Fort

Forts Folle Avoine, a local fur trade re-enactment attration, hosts a “Christmas at the Fort” event each year.   This year we were luck to catch it while Lea Ann, Nina and Sara Post were visiting.   Grandma and Grandpa Jacobs also came over for a visit.  The weather was beautiful except for the no snow part.   That came a day later.

The County Fair

Though we’re back to the heat in Saudi there are still a few images left to work through – here are some of the Post’s visit to Danbury and our visit to the Sibley County fair.   Kai was allergic to something there (or maybe all of it) so he was a watery eyed mess by the end but both he and Nora still really enjoyed it.
