Valentines Day 2009

These are a couple shots of the sunset here in El Paso a couple days before Valentines Day, I just wanted to share because they are beautiful, I love El Paso!!!

The youth at our church put on the whole Valentines dinner. They decorated the room to look like Paris, they dressed up, the made the food and served everyone! It was awesome!

Quick snap shot of the love of my life!

This is Abby and Hannah Hawk. They are the daughters of Harry and Donna Hawk who are some great friends of ours that we go to church with. They have two boys that are just as cute. Abby and Hannah were too little to help so they came in their pjs...too cute. The two boys actually were helping with the evening.

Couldn't you just eat her up???????

Introducing CW4 Roger Conant

Roger got promoted to CW4 in January 2009. The guy in the picture with him is our good friend CW4 Cruz. He and Roger were in the same Warrant class and have promoted through the Warrant ranks together. So we did a double promotion for CW4. His beautiful wife and and family were there as well as you will see.


This is right before we pinned Roger with his new rank. The man next to Roger is COL Delgado, Roger's boss. He had sooo many great things to say about Roger and his hard work!

He also had some jokes for us!! :) LOL

Wow, what a smile! Roger will have 22 years in the Army this July of 09.
It gave a great speech thanking God, his family and the others that helped him!

This is when Roger's mom and I got to put his new rank on him...No the rank doesn't go on the lips!!! :) One went on his uniform on one on his beret.


And there you have it ... CW4 Conant!!!!

This is when Cruz got his rank put on. To his right is his wife Ingrid and daughter Nicole. His boss talked about all the things he has done and had a few jokes for us too!

Then Cruz got to give a speech and thank everyone too!

They had us line up on stage so everyone could come by and shake our hands.

This is the Cruz family! On the left is Cruz's brother Daniel.

Will you look at those smiles!!! On the far right is Nicole's friend.

And here are the Conant's!



Wow! Can you believe Steven on the left is only 16 and Bryan is 13!
They are going to tower over us!!





This look says...."c'mon my feet hurt!"
