From Twila

I have just put the Brooker family tree online. I thought maybe we could put a blurp on the blog about it?
It can be viewed at www.rootsweb.com then go under Family Trees (World Connect), Search Family Trees. You will need to scroll to the 2nd page down near the last entry. It is under Brooker, Jacob, born 1798 in Germany. This is Butch's great-great grandfather and when you go into the site you can look under the register and it is easier reading. Anyway I do hope some enjoy and I am happy for feedback on errors etc.

It has been one of the worse summers this year. 50 some days of over 100, but know you probably heard. Guess Iowa has had a great summer. Twila

From Gail Brooker Meiners

I thought you would like to see we still have a Brooker in my family. This is "Brooker" James. He is my younger son's Brian) boy. Brooker is now 14 months old. Sofia, his sister is 4 years old. I was very touched when they named him Brooker.

A Very Big Thank You

We had such a wonderful time at the Brooker Family Reunion. It was absolutely wonderful to see Gary and Nancy again. The four of us did so much together while they lived in Ankeny. Great memories!

Leo's family went to a lot of work preparing for the event - thank you, thank you. It was a huge success. The breakfast, snacks and dinner were absolutely delicious.
The picture tribute to the Brooker Family was very enjoyable. Dick wonders who had the picture of him with the fox.

Throughout the week I get to thinking about the story of the police car and the popcorn stand - what a sight that must have been. Funny!

Leo - thanks again for organizing this event.

Thank You!

Thank you to Leo and Keri for hosting the Brooker reunion!

Thank you to everyone that traveled so far to be there!

It was SO MUCH fun to see everyone!

Anyone care to guess what Bill's plans are for the ball bat?
