The greatest time spent is spending time with our family!

Where should I start? The last couple of weeks have been filled with lots of fun & laughter - just the perfect mix for us!

Brent is now officially off of the USS HOWARD. When Brent came home on Wednesday evening, he was so PROUD to share what his fellow Officers and Department had given to him to say farewell. It was so great to read all of the things everyone had to say about Brent. Of course none of it surprised me. Just about everyone had said "thank you for being a mentor". That is our Brent!!! I think the last three in a half years aboard the ship was quite the experience for Brent personally and of course for our whole family. I will always remember the day Brent first reported to duty aboard the ship. At that moment we knew things were going to be different than what we had been use to. Fortunately we survived two six month deployments and several mini departures in between. Now that it is all behind us................it wasn't all that bad!!! THANK YOU so much to our family and friends for the support, we love you all.

So what have we been up to lately?

HAPPY 29th BIRTHDAY Babe!
It seems like it was just yesterday that we were 16 & 17.
WOW - where has the time gone? I love you!!!

I just love Brent & Hannah's expression......




An evening at Medieval Times..........
For Brent's Birthday Dinner - Abuelo & Abuela treated us
to an evening at Medieval Times. We had a WONDERFUL time.
The best part was seeing the girls sweet little faces enjoying the show.
Our little Savannah is turning into quite the little social butterfly. She
blew a kiss to the Prince during the show. It was priceless!!!



My KING enjoying his beer!!!


The girls just can't get enough of their Daddy.....


Disneyland here we come...............
The following day we went to the Happiest Place Ever - Disneyland
of course. It was a SUPER warm day, but well worth it. Now
that Brent will be on shore duty we purchased our season passes - YAY!!!


Are we there yet Mommy?




It's a SMALL WORLD


Our sweet little Princesses



Around and Around we go!!!

Well we will be busy packing and moving starting this coming week. Yes, we are moving AGAIN. We are moving back to Temecula on 1 acre. Abuelo and Abuela think it is so funny that we want a home with land since Brent always said he would never have a home with land when he grew up.......never say never, right? We have our work cut out for us! I'll share pictures of our new home in our next update.
Until next time - lots of HUGS from our family to yours!!!
