When Trent Woslum, a sergeant in the California National Guard, was finally able to buy his family their first fixer-upper
home as a Christmas present in 2002, little did he know that by Valentine's Day he would have to leave the house, his wife
and three sons behind to serve a tour of duty in Iraq. Unbeknownst to wife Dawna and the three sons -- Steven, 12 Nicholas,
7 and Alex, 5 -- who were sent on vacation to Disneyland for seven days while the house was being transformed, Trent returned
home from Iraq.
