Welcome to the Kent Family
On Saturday, August 21st, we had the pleasure of attending my cousin Tim Kent’s wedding to Amanda Harkey. Despite the heat 
of a Bakersfield summer, the wedding was lovely. Highlights included the groom and his party all wearing VAN shoes, personally getting bite by red ants all over my feet, the bride being delivered by the Bakersfield Fire Department in a fire engine, and of course visiting with extended family that we don’t get to see very often. We got to met our newest cousin Dean Howard Schultz (Kami and David’s baby boy). Welcome to the Kent Family Amanda and Dean!!
Kent Family FUN…Generation Next
Thanks to my cousin Timmy’s wedding, my cousin Kami and Mindy and their familes came to visit. While some were attending the rehearsal dinner, my Mom prepared a delicious meal for the rest. Shortly after dinner was completed, my Dad decided to bring out the PADS. All the kids were squealing with delight. The object of the fun is to get as many kids on the pads as possible and slide down the stairs without anyone falling off. Back when we were kids we had fun doing the same thing. Memories flooded back from earlier days. Pictures included Glen Schultz, Adam Alfred, Kent Tucker, Luke Alfred, and Elle Tucker.

Adventures Abound in Cayman
After a long but uneventful trip here, we checked into the Marriott and headed out for dinner at EATS cafe. The food was not as good as we had remembered but everyone was so hungry it didn’t really matter. After dinner, we dropped Tayah and Kenny back at the hotel while we ran to the grocery store to get so breakfast for the morning. After teasing everyone in the store, my Dad got into the rental car and the next thirty seconds of our lives was out of the movie Inception. Backing out the parking lot the accelerator got stuck. In reverse we side swiped a truck and 
crashed into a parked vehicle. It was extremely scary and I think both Krissy and I developed an arrhymia like my Dad’s…atleast for a few hours. Luckily no one was in the parking lot at the time this happened so nobody was injured and they had purchased insurance. Best $14.00/a day ever spent! Krissy and I hired a 
taxi to bring us home while my Dad and Kenny stayed and dealt with the police. Sleep was difficult last night. My Dad took some valium and still only managed to sleep 3 hours.
Today, we embarked on a two tank dive trip with Neptune Divers. While we dove to depths of 100 feet through the walls, Tayah worked with Jorge on a resort dive course. She was very brave! I would have been so nervous but she seemed fine.
She joined us on the second dive, Doc Poulson Wreck which was a shallow dive above the walls. The following pictures are from the second dive and don’t need much explanation.
After the dives, I developed a migraine which resulted in an unpleasant afternoon. Krissy and Tayah played in the ocean and collected shells. Dinner was steak, salad, and potatoes. Another successful adventure in paradise.
