Presidents' Kids Talk About White House Life The son of former President Gerald Ford says the first night his family spent in the White House, he and a friend dragged a stereo onto the roof. Steve Ford joined other children of former presidents Thursday recalling their lives in the White House. He garnered laughs when he recalled that night in 1974, saying: "I think we were playing Led Zeppelin's 'Stairway to Heaven.' We were like 'Dumb and Dumber.' Jenna Bush Hager then told Ford, "you can still get up on that roof." She says she her husband had their first kiss there. Her twin sister, Barbara Pierce Bush, along with Lynda Johnson Robb also spoke during the conference in Texas. It's part of a conference series about first ladies, though Thursday was the first where presidents' children have participated.
