    My brother and his family flew to Texas last week to hang out with my dad for about ten days. Dad has been going through a lot physically and hasn't been able to fly out to see me and my family for awhile. Well my wife finally got a few days off work so I was able to fly out to Texas to see my Dad yesterday. He had no idea I was coming and my sister in law picked me up from the airport.

    Dad has always been big into sports and was putting my two nephews through a sprint workout on the local track when I arrived. Sister in law let me out from the car a way from the track and I made my way in on foot. As soon as the boys took off on a sprint I ran the opposite way full speed and ran right through them......Dad got so pissed. Hahahahahahaha! My older brother and I were laughing so hard. His eyes aren't as good as they once were so he didn't even know it was me for awhile. He challenged me to race my nephew! Haha....then he finally realized it was me and couldn't believe it. We all broke down laughing....was awesome.
