Well it has finally happened! Fred finally got his knee operated on. Everything went better than expected. He was only in surgery for an hour. When they got in they realized that his PCL was fine and that the pain was coming from the cartilage in his knee that was all mangled up. He's been a good boy and watched lots of movies and has decided that he does not like day time television. His parents came out helped, which was a lifesaver since, I had just taken a week off to go to Florida. He will be back to work next week and off of crutches in a week or so.

Orlando.........
Well we had a lots of fun in Florida. We were there with my brother Philip, wife Tracy and their cute boys. Mom and Dad came down Sunday and went with us to Seaworld. We even got them to ride Atlantis with us. They look amazing! It was so good to see them again and be able to hug them.
Magic Kingdom was fun. Kelsey rode as many rides as she could as fast as she could. Chase was a little more reluctant on going on anything. I got him to go on Thunder Mountain because it had a train on it. He was very mad at me and wouldn't go on any more "roller coasters" no matter how hard we begged him.
I wish that we had more time at Universal Studios. Chase didn't feel well that day so, we really didn't see a whole lot. Minus that, we did see Lightning McQueen and Towmater. Which for Sean that made the trip. He kept saying "My Lightning, My Lightning" So, needless to say we pulled him away screaming from that. He loves all his Lightning McQueen cars.
Went to Chef Mickey's to eat breakfast and meet all the characters. Headed back over to Magic Kingdom and ended off the day at Epcot. It was a 15 hr day at the parks. We were pretty beat.
The last full day there we went to Cocoa Beach. We weren't there very long and we all got burnt to a crisp. Well except Kelsey who just tanned. Sean was fun to watch Chasing the the waves out and running from them as they came in.
The time went so fast and I wish we could have had another week to spend more time at each of the parks. But, the kids loved it and I am so glad that we got to spend some time with my parents.
