OPINION

DAVID WELLINGTON CHEW, Justice.

In this appeal from a final divorce decree, Donald B. Burney challenges the trial court's discretion in determining the child visitation schedule, the child support payment, and the division of community property. We affirm in part, reverse in part.

Donald and Yvette Burney were married on July 31, 1998 and were separated on or about December 8, 2000. Out of their marriage, one child was born on March 16, 1999; a daughter by the name of Savannah Burney. Mrs. Burney filed for divorce on December 11, 2000. Mr. Burney filed an original answer and counterclaim for divorce on December 27, 2000.

At the time the divorce was filed, Mrs. Burney, along with Savannah, resided in the home that was purchased while Mr. and Mrs. Burney were married which was located at 717 Teresa Drive, DeSoto, Texas. At trial, Mrs. Burney testified that this home was foreclosed on October 2, 2002. She stated that there was a court order directing her to pay the mortgage on the residence, but that she was unable to do so because Mr. Burney placed a code on the Wells Fargo account, preventing her access. She stated that she did not attempt to send him a check for the mortgage, but rather tried to pay it as she normally would, making the payment directly to the bank. This code was placed on the account sometime in May 2001. She believed that they had paid $155,000 for the home and that Mr. Burney had made a down payment of $16,000 from savings he had accumulated prior to their marriage. She stated that there was a second mortgage on the residence held by Bank One. She was able to make a deal with Bank One with regard to the balance due on the account, which was approximately $10,000. She offered to buy the house for $165,000 and the offer had been accepted the day before the hearing; she stated that she did not know how much of a down payment she was going to give on the house, but that the money would be coming from a family loan. For the duration of their separation until the date of the hearing, Mrs. Burney has been living in the house.

At the bench trial, Joseph Pickett, a certified public account, testified as to his findings of an audit he conducted of Mr. Burney's assets as was ordered by the court He stated that he had attempted several times to gather the documents necessary to perform the audit from Mr. Burney. He made about five or six requests, some in writing, some oral, for these documents. His initial request was submitted in writing on August 2002. The documents he requested were Mr. Burney's bank statements, personal investment statements, income and business statements, and W-2 forms. Based on the information he was able to gather, Mr. Pickett testified that he was able to determine that in 2001, Mr. Burney deposited approximately $62,000 into his personal bank account. Mr. Pickett chose the year 2001 because it was for this year that he had the most complete information and he had a reasonable number of bank statements as well. He stated that if Mr. Burney had additional bank accounts, he did not have access to any of that information. Mr. Pickett testified that in 2001, there was difference of approximately $10,000 in the amount of money that was reported from Mr. Burney's partnership and the amount that was deposited into his personal account.

Mr. Burney testified that he is a shareholder at the accounting firm Burney, McClellan, and Associates. He stated that he was aware Mr. Pickett was ordered by the court to examine his books and records. He also stated that he had advance notice of the documents Mr. Pickett needed to examine and that he made available to Mr. Pickett all of the records he had. He stated that there may have been a few bank statements that he did not have, but he offered to authorize access to these records at the bank for Mr. Pickett. He stated that some of these documents were also available online, but he did not print out these documents or ask for copies at the bank because he did not want to incur the costs of producing them. He believed Mr. Pickett was lying about the availability of such documents because he was not a very competent CPA. He provided testimony regarding his assets and the community indebtedness, but testified that he could not account for the deposits made in excess of his monthly salary that were discovered by Mr. Pickett.

After a bench trial was held on February 20, 2003 and March 18, 2003, the trial court signed the final divorce decree on June 13, 2003. The trial court named Mr. and Mrs. Burney joint managing conservators; ordered a standard visitation schedule for Mr. Burney; ordered Mr. Burney to pay $563.80 of monthly child support; awarded Mr. Burney a $16,000 lien on their home located on 717 Teresa; and provided for the division of the remaining marital estate. Mr. Burney filed a motion for new trial in which he raised the same issues before this Court on appeal. After a hearing, the trial court entered an order granting in part and denying in part Mr. Burney's motion and entered modifications on the issue of the division of the community estate and indebtedness on August 29, 2003. Upon Mr. Burney's request, the trial court entered Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law. Mr. Burney now timely brings this appeal.

DISCUSSION Visitation Schedule

In Issue One, Mr. Burney asserts that the trial court abused its discretion by failing to order the expanded visitation schedule he requested and which Mrs. Burney did not oppose. Mr. Burney asserts that although he provided the trial court with testimony regarding his close relationship with Savannah, and his participation in her school work and school activities, the trial court arbitrarily refused to grant his requested visitation schedule. Mr. Burney's requested visitation schedule is as follows:

1. Court ordered visitation with the Respondent every Wednesday, commencing at 4:00 p.m. and terminating with the child's return on Thursday morning for school or to the Petitioner as appropriate with the school year.

2. Court ordered visitation with the Respondent the first, third, and fifth Friday, commencing at 4:00 p.m. and terminating with the child's return on Monday morning for school or to the Petitioner as appropriate with the school year.

3. Court ordered summer visitation with the Respondent, at his option, after reasonable notice to the Petitioner, for a total period of one month in the summer of each year, to be exercised by him in one week or two week segments, but with the option to be allowed a period of four consecutive weeks in the summer for visitation.

The trial court awarded the standard possession order applicable in both instances where Mr. Burney resides 100 miles or less from Savannah and where he resides more than 100 miles apart.

Standard of Review

A trial court has wide discretion in determining the best interest of a child in family law matters such as custody, visitation, and possession. Gillespie v. Gillespie, 644 S.W.2d 449, 451 (Tex. 1982). The best interest of the child is the primary consideration in determining conservatorship and possession of and access to the child. TEX.FAM. CODE ANN. § 153.002 (Vernon 2002). Additionally, joint managing conservatorship does not require the award of equal or nearly equal periods of physical possession of and access to the child to each of the joint conservators. Tex.Fam. Code Ann. § 153.135. The standard possession order provided by Subchapter F constitutes a presumptive minimum amount of time for possession of a child by a parent named as a joint managing conservator who is not awarded the primary physical residence of the child in a suit. Tex.Fam. Code Ann. § 153.137 (Vernon Supp. 2005).

Contrary to Mr. Burney's assertion in his appellate brief that he provided explicit testimony regarding his relationship with Savannah, upon a close examination of the record, we find that the majority of Mr. Burney's testimony revolved around the issue of the division of property. Mr. Burney did testify as to the visitation schedule he was requesting. He testified that he picked Savannah up from school every Wednesday between the hours of 4 p.m. and 6 p.m. and then dropped her off at school the next school day; he also picked her up between 4 p.m. and 6 p.m. every third and fifth Friday of the month and then dropped her back off at school the next school day. Mrs. Burney said she did not have a problem continuing the current visitation schedule, including Mr. Burney picking up Savannah after school on Wednesday and returning her back to school the next morning. Further, she did not request any restrictions for the visitation schedule.

Mrs. Burney also testified as to a specific incident that occurred sometime in October 2002 that resulted in Mr. Burney being arrested for committing family violence. According to Mrs. Burney, Mr. Burney had picked Savannah up, had gone to their home and refused to leave. She called the police and shortly thereafter, two police officers and two sheriff officers arrived at her home. Mr. Burney then ran out of the house with Savannah in his arms, but was stopped before he was able to get into his vehicle. While the police officers were asking him to put Savannah down, Mrs. Burney seeing Savannah cry, reached out for her; Mr. Burney then lifted his fist in the air and hit Mrs. Burney. All this occurred in front of the police and Mr. Burney was then arrested. Since that occasion however, she stated that there have been no other incidents involving family violence.

Additionally, there was another incident in which she was the party who committed the family violence. While the details of this incident were not provided, Mrs. Burney stated that Mr. Burney did not attend the hearing regarding this matter and that therefore, the charges were dismissed. The trial court also made the following finding of fact: "Respondent, Donald B. Burney has committed family violence in the past; however, there is not a likelihood of future family violence." The trial court also made the following pertinent conclusion of law: "It is in the best interest of the child, Savannah Burney, for Donald B. Burney to have access to the child pursuant to a standard schedule of visitation."

Based on the testimony heard by the trial court, we find that it did have sufficient evidence to exercise its discretion. See Lindsey v. Lindsey, 965 S.W.2d 589, 592 (Tex.App.-El Paso 1998, no pet.). In exercising its discretion, we find that the trial court did not act arbitrarily or unreasonable. The trial court followed the standard visitation schedule and given the young age of the child, we find the trial court's decision to be reasonable. As such, we overrule Issue One.

Child Support

In Issue Two, Mr. Burney contends that the child support payments ordered by the trial court exceeded the traditional guidelines without justification on the record. Mr. Burney argues that his net monthly income should have been $2,275 and the ordered child support payment should have been $455.05 per month. The trial court found Mr. Burney's net monthly income to be $2,559 and ordered a monthly child support payment of $563.80, the amount being adjusted to include medical insurance for the child.

A trial court's support order will not be disturbed on appeal unless the complaining party shows that the order constituted a clear abuse of the court's discretion. Worford v. Stamper, 801 S.W.2d 108, 109 (Tex. 1990); see also, Norris v. Norris, 56 S.W.3d 333, 337 (Tex.App.-El Paso 2001, no pet.). A court abuses its discretion when it acts without reference to guiding rules and principles. Downer v. Aquamarine Operators, Inc., 701 S.W.2d 238, 241-42 (Tex. 1985), cert. denied, 476 U.S. 1159, 106 S.Ct. 2279, 90 L.Ed.2d 721 (1986). Stated differently, the appropriate inquiry is whether the ruling was arbitrary or unreasonable. Smithson v. Cessna Aircraft Company, 665 S.W.2d 439, 443 (Tex. 1984); Landry v. Travelers Insurance Co., 458 S.W.2d 649, 651 (Tex. 1970). The mere fact that a trial judge may decide a matter within her discretionary authority in a different manner than an appellate judge in a similar circumstance does not demonstrate that an abuse of discretion has occurred. Southwestern Bell Telephone Co. v. Johnson, 389 S.W.2d 645, 648 (Tex. 1965); Jones v. Strayhorn, 159 Tex. 421, 321 S.W.2d 290, 295 (1959).

In order to determine whether an abuse of discretion has occurred, we engage in a two-pronged inquiry: (1) Did the trial court have sufficient information upon which to exercise its discretion; and (2) did the trial court err in its application of discretion? Lindsey, 965 S.W.2d at 592. The traditional sufficiency review comes into play with regard to the first question; however, our inquiry cannot end there. Id. We must proceed to determine whether, based on the elicited evidence, the trial court made a reasonable decision. Id.; see also, Jenkins v. Jenkins, 16 S.W.3d 473, 477-78 (Tex.App.-El Paso 2000, no pet.) An abuse of discretion does not occur as long as some evidence of a substantive and probative character exists to support the trial court's decision, Lide v. Lide, 116 S.W.3d 147, 152 (Tex.App.-El Paso 2003, no pet.), citing In the Interest of Gonzalez, 993 S.W.2d 147, 155 (Tex.App.-San Antonio 1999, no pet.); D.R. v. J.A.R., 894 S.W.2d 91, 95 (Tex.App.-Fort Worth 1995, writ denied).

The best interest of the child is the primary consideration in determining questions of child support. Hollifield v. Hollifield, 925 S.W.2d 153, 155 (Tex.App.-Austin 1996, no writ); MacCallum v. MacCallum, 801 S.W.2d 579, 583 (Tex.App.-Corpus Christi 1990, writ denied). For purposes of our analysis, "net resourse" includes all wages and salary income, self-employment income, and all other income actually being received, including capital gains. See Tex.Fam. Code Ann. § 154.062(b). The court may order support above or below the guideline amount if the evidence rebuts the presumption that application of the guidelines is in the best interest of the child and justifies a variance from the guidelines. Tex.Fam. Code Ann. § 154.123(a).

In this case, Mr. Burney is in essence challenging the sufficiency of the evidence to support the trial court's finding of his monthly net resources amounting to $2,559. As we understand Mr. Burney's argument to be, he is not arguing that the trial court varied from the child support guidelines, but rather that his monthly net resources were miscalculated.

Mr. Burney provided the trial court with a financial information statement that showed his net income being $2,043. He informed the trial court that the child support payment he was making at the time of the hearing was $563. This was the amount ordered by the trial court as a result of the temporary hearing it held on April 26, 2001; the trial court at that time found Mr. Burney's net resources to be $2,559. Mrs. Burney testified that while they were living together, Mr. Burney made about $2,500 to $3,000 a month. She was asking for $865 per month in child support. The trial court also heard the testimony of Mr. Pickett in regards to Mr. Burney's earnings. Mr. Pickett testified that Mr. Burney had deposited approximately $62,000 into his bank account in 2001. He also testified that Mr. Burney's earnings in 2001 were approximately $62,000. Mr. Burney stated that he could not account for the deposits made into his account above his monthly salary. Based on the record before this Court, we find that the trial court had sufficient evidence upon which to exercise its discretion. Based on such testimony, we find the trial court's decision does not demonstrate an abuse of discretion. We overrule Issue Two.

Division of Community Property

In his third issue, Mr. Burney argues that the trial court did not make a fair, equitable, or appropriate apportionment of the community assets and liabilities. Tex.Fam. Code Ann. § 7.001 (Vernon 1998) gives the trial court broad authority to divide the marital estate in a manner it deems just and right. The division of property should be corrected on appeal only if the trial court clearly abused its discretion by ordering a division that was manifestly unjust or unfair. In re Marriage of Taylor, 992 S.W.2d 616, 620 (Tex.App.-Texarkana 1999, no pet.). We employ a two-pronged inquiry in our analysis: (1) whether the trial court had sufficient information upon which to exercise is discretion; and (2) whether the trial court abused its discretion by making a property division that is manifestly unjust or unfair. Evans v. Evans, 14 S.W.3d 343, 346 (Tex.App.-Houston [14th Dist] 2000, no pet.); Lindsey, 965 S.W.2d at 592. It is the duty of the reviewing court to presume that the trial court properly exercised its discretion in dividing the marital estate. Frommer v. Frommer, 981 S.W.2d 811, 814 (Tex.App.-Houston [1st Dist.] 1998, pet. dism'd), citing Murff v. Murff, 615 S.W.2d 696, 699 (Tex. 1981).

Thus, the party complaining of the trial court's division must demonstrate the division was so unjust, the trial court abused its discretion. Frommer, 981 S.W.2d at 814, citing Murff, 615 S.W.2d at 698. We defer to the trial court's determination of the credibility of the witnesses' testimony and disturb the trial court's findings only in a case of clear abuse of discretion. Murff, 615 S.W.2d at 700.

Community property does not need to be divided equally, but it must be equitable. See Kimsey v. Kimsey, 965 S.W.2d 690, 704 (Tex.App.-El Paso 1998, pet. denied). A trial court may consider many factors in exercising its discretion, and it is presumed that the trial court properly exercised its discretion. Murff, 615 S.W.2d at 699. Some of the factors a trial court may consider in exercising its discretion are: (1) the spouse's capacities and abilities; (2) benefits that the party not at fault would have derived from the continuation of the marriage; (3) business opportunities; (4) education; (5) physical conditions of the parties; (6) the parties financial condition and obligations; (7) size of the separate estates; (8) the nature of the property; (9) the disparities in earning capacities and incomes; and (10) the fault in the breakup of the marriage. Id.

It is the responsibility of the parties to provide the trial judge with a basis upon which to make the division. Wallace v. Wallace, 623 S.W.2d 723, 725 (Tex.Civ.App.-Houston [1st Dist.] 1981, writ dism'd). One who complains of the way the trial court divided the properties must be able to show from the evidence in the record that the division is so unjust and unfair as to constitute an abuse of discretion. Id. The trial court's discretion to divide the community estate is not unlimited, and the court must have some reasonable basis for an unequal division of the property. Zieba v. Martin, 928 S.W.2d 782, 790 (Tex.App.-Houston [14th Dist.] 1996, no writ).

The trial court entered the following pertinent findings of fact and conclusions of law regarding the distribution of the marital estates:

Findings of Fact

. . .

13. Respondent, Donald B. Burney, has interfered with Yvette Johnson Burney's use and enjoyment of the community residence; such interference resulted in foreclosure.

14. Petitioner, Yvette Johnson Burney, was able to purchase the residence back after foreclosure. The residence is without equity at this time due in large part to the actions of Donald B. Burney.

15. Respondent, Donald B. Burney, paid Sixteen Thousand Dollars ($16,000.00) from his separate funds as a down payment on the home.

16. There is disupted evidence of community debt. However, the evidence is unclear and/or insufficient to determine the extent or acquisition of debt.

17. Petitioner, Yvette Johnson Burney, has an automobile; Respondent, Donald B. Burney, has an automobile.

18. Each party has personal property. Donald B. Burney is driving a Volvo automobile for which Yvette Johnson Burney is financially responsible.

19. Community property was accumulated during the marriage; the exact nature, description, and/or extent of the community property is unclear.

20. Respondent, Donald B. Burney, is a partner in an accounting firm, Burney, McClellan and Associates.

21. Petitioner, Yvette Johnson Burney, used funds which were community funds to pay community debt during the course of the marriage.

. . .

24. Petitioner, Yvette Johnson Burney, retained the services of an expert, Joe Pickett, to determine the extent of the assets held by Respondent, Donald B. Burney, and the community.

25. Respondent, Donald B. Burney, was uncooperative with the requests made for production and inspection of documents.

26. Petitioner, Yvette Johnson Burney, was unable to obtain full and complete disclosure as to the extent of the community.

27. Respondent, Donald B. Burney, failed to provide full and complete disclosure as to the extent of the community, although in control of the majority of documents reflecting the community estate.

28. Neither party has made specific re-quests for any specific community property, with the exception of the appliances in the home.

Conclusions of Law

. . .

7. The residence is without equity at this time due in large part to the actions of Donald B. Burney. Yvette Johnson Burney should be awarded the residence subject to a lien in the amount of Sixteen Thousand Dollars ($16,000.00), payable to Donald B. Burney for monies paid from separate funds as the down payment for the residence.

8. There is some community debt to be divided; however, the evidence is unclear and/or insufficient to determine the extent or acquisition of debt. Debt shall be assigned to the party in whose name the debt or account is held.

9. Yvette Johnson Burney should be awarded the automobile in her possession; Donald B. Burney should be awarded the Volvo automobile in his possession with the attendant debt. Donald B. Burney should be ordered to refinance the Volvo and remove Yvette Johnson Burney from the note and title.

10. Each party should be awarded his or her personal possessions.

11. The parties should divide equally the community property not specifically awarded to either party.

12. The appliances in the home shall remain with the home for the use and benefit of the child, Savannah Burney.

13. Donald. B. Burney should be awarded all interest in and to Burney, McClellan and Associates, and any property owned by the firm that he may have an interest in.

14. Each party should be awarded any and all retirement/pension plans, IRAs, 401-K, or other monies held in his or her name.

. . .

17. Based upon the testimony and evidence which was admitted at trial, the division of the community estate is just and right, having due regard for the rights of each party and Savannah Burney, the minor child of the marriage.

Mr. Burney contends that there was no just division of the community estate indebtedness he testified to and as reflected in a spreadsheet he offered as an exhibit at the hearing, which provided a summary of his testimony. He argues that the total indebtedness totaled $73,280.30, with $48,923.45 being accrued by Mrs. Burney. Therefore, he argues that the trial court should have ordered Mrs. Burney to pay such amount.

At the hearing, Mr. Burney submitted to the trial court a spreadsheet listing the community indebtedness. The list included the accounts relating to their residence, including three liens on their residence being held by Wells Fargo, Bank One, and Mr. Tommy Henson. He then testified that they had an MBNA account and First USA Mastercard that had debt they accumulated during their marriage. There was also a Wal-Mart account used to buy a refrigerator while they were married, which at the time of the hearing, had an outstanding balancing of approximately $500. He testified as to an American Express account which had accumulated debt from their marriage that by the time of the hearing, he had already paid off with funds from the proceeds of the sale of a rental property he had acquired before they were married. He stated that the bill was under $2,000. Mr. Burney also testified as to a cellular wireless account totaling an outstanding balance of $790.68. He stated that Mrs. Burney had accumulated this debt; that it was her phone and that she had not paid on it. Mrs. Burney stated that she in fact did run up the bill, but that when she attempted to pay on it, Mr. Burney would not sign the documentation required by Southwestern Bell.

As for the vehicles, Mr. Burney stated that there was a court order for Mrs. Burney to pay on a Ford Winstar they had bought while they were married. Mrs. Burney said that Mr. Burney contacted Ford and ordered them not to talk to her, but Mr. Burney testified that he did not do so. Mr. Burney stated that Mrs. Burney left the Winstar in the parking lot of his apartment complex sometime in April 2002. Eventually, the vehicle went into default and he had to surrender the vehicle to the dealer. Mrs. Burney stated that she attempted to change vehicles with Mr. Burney, since she was on the Volvo account. However, Mr. Burney refused to change vehicles with her. Mr. Burney testified that she never asked him to switch vehicles. In addition, Mr. Burney stated that both he and Mrs. Burney were named on the Volvo account and that the remaining outstanding balance of $17,885,67 should be split between both parties.

Additionally, the debts provided by Mr. Burney once the foreclosure of the home is taken into account do not add up to $73,280.30 indebtedness. Mr. Burney fails to provide us with a detailed accounting of such debt, just as he failed to do for the trial court. Mr. Burney is also a partner in an accounting firm that among other things, owns the building the office is located in. It is unclear what Mrs. Burney's profession is, but she did testify as to several businesses she owned, none of which appeared to be very profitable and all of which she eventually closed. She stated at the hearing that she was doing contract work and her monthly salary ranged from $0 to $5,000. Mr. Burney it appears, has greater future opportunities and more ability to retire the debts, than Mrs. Burney. We find that the trial court had sufficient evidence upon which to exercise its discretion in dividing the marital estate and therefore find no abuse of discretion in the trial courts distribution.

Separate Property

Mr. Burney also challenges the trial court's failure to account for an insurance company check, a property travel expense check, and a washer and dryer. Mr Burney argues that each of these items were his separate property. Mr. Burney testified that he received a check from the insurance company for a theft that occurred at their home. He stated that by the time he found out about the theft, the insurance had already issued a check and mailed it to the 717 Teresa address. He also stated that Mrs. Burney cashed a travel expense check for $700 without his authorization. He stated that by the time Mrs. Burney received these checks, the joint accounts had already been closed.

Mrs. Burney also testified with regard to the insurance check, the travel expense check, and the payroll check. She stated that the insurance check was to cover the loss of lawn equipment, some of which was hers and some of which belonged to Mr. Burney, all of which was being stored in the residence's garage. When she received the check, she forged his name and deposited the amount into their joint account. The money was used for living expenses; this occurred while they were already separated. She also forged his signature on his payroll check and deposited the check into another joint account. Additionally, she stated that it was customary for her to endorse and deposit his payroll checks when he did not have time to go to the bank. As for the travel expense check, she stated that it was a check for about $50 or $75 She testified that she probably used the money for groceries and to pay for day care.

We find that the trial court could have believed Mrs. Burney's testimony regarding what she did with the funds from the payroll, travel expense, and insurance checks; that is, that she deposited the monies into their joint accounts and used them for the family's living expenses. In the marital relationship, each spouse has a duty of support owed to the other spouse. See Tex.Fam. Code Ann. § 2.501. To the extent any separate funds of Mr. Burney were expended for normal community living expenses, such as rent, food, etc., there is no right to reimbursement because these merely extinguish the obligation of each spouse to support the family. In re Marriage of Case, 28 S.W.3d 154, 161 (Tex.App.-Texarkana 2000, no pet.).

As for the washer and dryer, the trial court found that the appliances were to remain in the home for the benefit of the child. Mr. Burney testified that the washer and dryer belonged to him and that he wanted the property returned to him. According to Mrs. Burney's testimony, the washer and dryer belonged to Mr. Burney before they were married; she had a set of her own, and when they married, he suggested she get rid of her set and use his. She did not think she should give those back to Mr. Burney.

Both parties testified that the washer and dryer were the separate property of Mr. Burney. A trial court has no discretion to divest title to separate personal property and award that property to the other spouse in a divorce. Cameron v. Cameron, 641 S.W.2d 210, 219-20 (Tex. 1982). Early in Texas family law jurisprudence, a trial court had wide discretion to dispose of any and all of the parties' personal property, separate or community. See e.g., Fitts v. Fitts, 14 Tex. 443, 450 (1855); Hedtke v. Hedtke, 112 Tex. 404, 248 S.W. 21, 23 (1923); Tullis v. Tullis, 456 S.W.2d 172, 173 (Tex.Civ.App.-El Paso 1970, writ dism'd); Campbell v. Campbell, 554 S.W.2d 10, 12 (Tex.Civ.App.-Fort Worth 1977, no writ); Cooper v. Cooper, 513 S.W.2d 229, 233-34 (Tex.Civ.App.-Houston [1st Dist.] 1974, no writ); Ramirez v. Ramirez, 524 S.W.2d 767, 769 (Tex.Civ.App.-Corpus Christi 1975, no writ); Muns v. Muns, 567 S.W.2d 563, 564-65 (Tex.Civ.App.-Dallas 1978, no writ) (and cases cited therein). However, the law changed significantly in regards to a trial courts authority to award separate personal property. See Cameron, 641 S.W.2d at 219-20. After Cameron, a trial court could no longer award the separate personalty of one spouse to another as part of a property division incident to divorce. Siefkas v. Siefkas, 902 S.W.2d 72, 79 (Tex.App.-El Paso 1995, no writ), citing Cameron, 641 S.W.2d. at 219-20.

We are cognizant of the efforts of the trial court to set aside separate personal property of Mr. Burney for the use and benefit of his daughter Savannah Burney. We also recognize that a trial court may set aside separate property for the use and benefit of a child born of the marriage as part of an award of child support. See Tex.Fam. Code Ann. § 154.003(4) and § 154.003(5). For example, a trial court may award the separate property residence of one spouse to the other spouse until the child reaches the age of majority. Eggemeyer v. Eggemeyer, 554 S.W.2d 137, 141 (Tex. 1977); Gerami v. Gerami 666 S.W.2d 241, 242 (Tex.App.-Houston [14th Dist.] 1984, no writ); Girard v. Girard, 521 S.W.2d 714, 719 (Tex.Civ.App.-Houston [1st Dist.] 1975, no writ). Presumably, a court could set aside the separate personal property as well as the separate real property of one spouse for the use and benefit of a child as well. However, we are aware of no case in which a trial court has expressly done so.

We need not decide today whether or not a trial court may temporarily set aside these types of separate personal property because that is not what occurred in this case. Even if a trial court could set aside this type of separate personal property, (an issue we expressly do not reach here) it could not divest title from one spouse and vest it in the other spouse. See Cameron, 641 S.W.2d. at 219-20. In this case, rather than set aside the washer and dryer of Mr. Burney for the benefit of his daughter for a specified period of time, the trial court granted permanent ownership rights to Mrs. Burney in the final decree of divorce. In it's conclusions of law, the trial court stated that the appliances were to remain in the home "for the use and benefit of the child, Savannah Burney." However, given that the final decree of divorce awards permanent possession to Mrs. Burney, a divestiture of Mr. Burney's separate property occurred.

Even though a trial court has broad discretion in dividing the marital property, it has no discretion to divest a spouse of his or her separate property. Cameron, 641 S.W.2d at 219-20; Eggemeyer, 554 S.W.2d at 142. Accordingly, if a trial court divests a spouse of his separate property, reversal is required. See Siefkas, 902 S.W.2d at 79-80. Further, an appellate court does not have the authority to render a judgment dividing the parties' marital property; we must instead reverse the judgment and remand the property division issue to the trial court. McKnight v. McKnight, 543 S.W.2d 863, 866 (Tex. 1976); Schlafly v. Schlafly, 33 S.W.3d 863, 872 (Tex.App.-Houston [14th Dist.] 2000, pet. denied); Siefkas, 902 S.W.2d at 80. However, where the error committed by the trial court is a legal one, we have the authority to instruct the trial court to redivide the property without conducting a new evidentiary hearing or taking any new evidence. Siefkas, 902 S.W.2d at 80. We instruct the trial court to redivide the property in accordance with this opinion without conducting a new evidentiary hearing or taking any new evidence or in the alternative suggest remittitur pursuant to TEX.R.APP.P. 46.3.

Accordingly, upon the filing of a remittitur by Appellee of the washing machine and dryer within fifteen days of our judgment, the judgment of the trial court is affirmed in all respects. If no remittitur is filed in accordance with this opinion and judgment, the cause will be remanded for a new trial to rightly divide the marital property of the parties. See Tex.R.App.P. 46.5.
