Pete's Dad- surgery Nov 20 2007

The Tuesday before Thanksgiving, Pete's Dad went in for surgery to have his hernia taken care of. That way he could recover over the Holiday. If anyone knows the Hawkes boys, they know the jokes that have come out of this situation. Well, Pete was almost on the same end of the joke too. He went in for a physical a few months back, and was told he had two hernias. He didn't want to do the surgery yet (because of our deductible) but since I had just recently WELL covered the deductible costs for the year with my surgery, he went ahead in to see the surgeon. We were all confused, but pleased to hear that he didn't even have any hernias.?.? Big Pete was looking forward to recovering with little Pete, but he had to do it alone. He recovered fine, and went back to work the next week.
