Hello, my name is Estevan. I am a Master Sergeant in the United States Air Force. I have been married to my high school sweetheart for 12 years, and we have three kids, ages 5, 7, and 11. My wife and kids are my world; they have sacrificed so much. I joined the Air Force in 2012 to support my family and give my son a life better than my wife and I had growing up. At the time, my oldest son was just 9 months old. I served on active duty for 7 years. During that time, I earned several awards, deployed for 7.5 months, became a Military Working Dog (MWD) handler, and then a MWD trainer. I have served an additional 4 years in the Air National Guard since then while serving my community as a Sheriff's Deputy and a member of the S.W.A.T. team. In the past 11 years, I have been diligent in taking on as many additional training opportunities as possible, attending several Schools out of town in order to sharpen my skills and allow me to serve my community and country well. Even while I've been home, my family has sacrificed countless hours for me, working additional hours to train my K-9, offering support to the K-9 teams I was in charge of training, improving my marksmanship skills, staying after work to help troops, and more. I am currently deployed. I will miss all my kids' birthdays this year, several holidays, and my oldest and youngest starting middle school and Kindergarten. Over the 11 years in the Air Force, I have missed too many birthdays, holidays, anniversaries, and milestones, but my wife and kids have been troopers. They hold down the fort to support me and the mission, even at the expense of time together as a family. We have started saving to take our kids to Disney World (this would be a first for our entire family), and we will hopefully have enough by 2025. I would love to be able to surprise my kids with the opportunity to take them when I get home from my deployment instead. I respectfully ask for help in attaining 5-day Disney World hopper passes for my family of five. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am very thankful for your time and consideration.

Thank You Message from the Hero:
THANK YOU TO: All of the Anonymous Generous People, Paul in Honor of Dennis Phillips, Debe in Honor of Son Luke now serving in Middle East USAF, Nancy in Honor of Dotty, Prissy, HarleyD, & Mac (fur kids), Ryan in Honor of Ryan, Mary in Honor of Eleazar, Richard, Raul, Thomas, Roger, John, Dalton, DAVID, Brenna, Denise, Joseph, SIMONNE, heather, Larry, and Hero's Wish for making our Post Deployment Disney World Vacation Wish come true! Our family had the time of our lives. We had so much time to reconnect, laugh, and create so many fun memories. I loved being able to spend quality time reconnecting with my kids and see them smile and laugh so much. They've been through so much and I was so happy to be able to take them on such a fun vacation. My daughter screamed with happiness riding the Slinky Dog and Everest roller coasters and was so excited to meet the princesses. Our boys had a great time at Disney as well. They had so much fun riding Guardians of the Galaxy and Tron, and said Hollywood Studios was their favorite park. It was a dream vacation and it couldn't have been possible without the support from all of you. I cannot put into words how much this meant to us. We are eternally grateful. Thank you!!
