I just wanted to send my thoughts and prayers out to everyone that knew Jake Klukis....... Monday night Jake was playing baseball at the park. He was catching the balls in the outfield by the score board. He decided to climb the power pole and touched something he shouldnt have. His head hit the breaker and he fell 30 feet from the pole. He was electrocuted.... They worked on him but was unsuccessful. My heart goes out to all his loved ones and friends.

My sister is a trooper........After a long day of work she loaded the kids up including her neice and nephew, stop and picked us up and we were off to Heise for pizza and swimming. The kids were having a blast playing in the arcade winning lots of stuffed animals. Recker is a fearless fish. I put arm floaties on and away he went. They worked great! He wouldn't let anyone help him. He was swimming hot laps around all of us.

CrAzY KiDs.......

Its that time of year............We made our first trip of the year to the zoo. We joined Jami and her in-laws at the park to ride the rides. Recker loved the horses. I was about sick from riding it around in circles. Right before this picture was taken, all three kids (Recker, Adyson, Karsyn) were hanging onto each other and some how ended up on the ground, one on top of the other...... They all had big tears running down there face but they stuck it out and got back on for a picture.

Jami insisted on letting Recker ride the airplanes....I was nervous cuz i didnt think he would stay seated but he did! Oh and that grin on his face never left until the ride ended.


We weren't at the zoo for more then a few minute and Recker was running and fell. He scrapped his knees on the pathway. He decided to ride in the wagon through the rest of the zoo..

Recker never holds still long enough to have a picture taken. Jami (my sister) finally thinks that she has it figured out. If you count (ONE............TWO............THREE.........) he actually holds still long enough to get a good picture then runs off. I just let her think that she has the touch but my dad has actually taught recker to plays a game with him where they race in the back yard. He counts ONE......TWO.........THREE..... and recker waits until he says three to go.......Then they race to the end of the yard and back.
