Allie Rai's Surgery and Chris & Christys Visit

My step brother Chris and his wife Christy came to visit us this past week.  They are on a 2 or 3 year cross country trip together.  You know when you just decide to take off and see everything regardless of how long it takes.. Yeah me either, but these two guys are doing it.. So cool!!!!  Anyway we had an awesome visit with them.  The timing couldn't have been more perfect.  The day they arrived was the day Allie Rai had knee surgery.  Did I tell ya'll Allie Rai was having knee surgery?  If not.. Allie Rai had knee surgery..:)  Chris and Christy stayed with her most of the week which allowed Mandy and I not miss much work.  Allie Rai loved it.. It was the most time she has spent with them before..  Here are a few pictures from their visit and AR's surgery that you all know now she had.  By the way it was a VMO advancement.  It was not an injury.. Her knee cap travels too much to the side so they moved the muscle down and reattached it.  Thats the best i can explain it with my limited medical schooling..


Day of surgery  Seriously this kid has the attitude every parent wishes their kids did.  Joked the entire time.. Even while getting the I.V. 
 Day after..  Allie Rai with Mattie (Chris and Christies Chocolate Lab)
 Yesterday (Sunday Nov 1st) with new brace.
Just a picture of Mandy because she is soo dang cute!!!!
