If you like soccer, you better be watching the Final right now on ESPN. It is halftime and USA is up 2-0 vs Brazil!

OUCH! USA gave up 3 unanswered goals in the second half and let Brazil take the championship.

Susan put together this slideshow.  I helped get it ready for the web and fixed a nagging sound problem.

We both took the pictures.

Enjoy!

Here is the funny fish I caught. I believe it is a Ladyfish.

Just had my knee surgery this morning. Here is a set of pics from the arthroscope:

The torn area has been chopped out and won’t be bothering me any more.  I can already feel an improvement in my knee.

The Dr. said that I should be able to run again within 3-4 weeks.  I’m hopeful for a full recovery.

Hey, check our Lizzie’s Piano recital on YouTube.

Here is a link to the first set of Disney Trip Pics

We are in a Starbucks in Tallahassee, FL right now.  Lizzie needed a little break and so did I.  We’re chilling out for a while and have just gotten connected to the internet after a week off line at Disney World.

We took a ton of pictures and have at least one or two stories from each day.  Over the next few days, we’ll be uploading the best shots and will try to tell the stories as best we can.  This trip back to Birmingham tonight is already turning into a little bit of drama.  But, we’ll keep a positive attitude and will take it easy on our return to Alabama tonight.  If we get too tired, we’ll stop at a nice inn somewhere in LA (Lower Alabama).

What a Goofy Girl we have here….

Much more to come.  Keep coming back for a complete trip report in multiple installments.
