Labor Day Vacation

The Simmons Family decided it would be an adventure to rent a RV to take a trip to Missoula, Montana to see Andy, Beth, and their kids for Labor Day. We had a wonderful time lounging on the leather sofas, watching the flat screen TV, and not needing bathroom stops the 9 hour drives there and back. Here are some pictures of our adventures.

Saying Goodbye

Welcome Home Co6aka!

Co6aka is finally home with us and we are so glad we decided to get a puppy. He is so adorable and so much fun and we can't wait for him to meet all his extended family and friends.

Families are Forever!

Recovering Mama

He's such a playful tike!

Peter B.

Jeph and I were undecided as to whether or not we should go to the Peter Breinholt concert at the Sandy Amphitheater the beginning of August. We decided to go and to our surprise, he dedicated a song to us. We were sure excited and confused so we both looked at each other to find out how the other pulled that off. Well, turns out Peter had asked for requests on Facebook and I had requested one of ny favorite songs. At the time I thought he would just play it, but Peter took it one step further and did some investigating to find out my husband's name.
After the concert, Jeph wrote Peter thanking him for the great show and wonderful gesture and asked him if there was any way to get a copy of the song for our upcoming anniversary. Pete is such a stud, he promptly agreed and the next day he emailed Jeph with the mp3 of the song and dedication. Jeph so sweetly surprised me by playing it the morning of our anniversary! Thanks again Peter B.

Congratulations friends!!!

Our friends, Austin and Stephanie, were sealed in the Salt Lake Temple on August 21, 2009! We are so happy for them! Congratulations friends!

Better late then never...

Happy Anniversary to us! Jeph and I celebrated our two year anniversary on August 7, 2009. It is hard to believe it has really been two years already! We have had some good times, hard times, fun times, and stressful times, and can't wait for all the many more times that are to come!
To celebrate, Jeph and I took off Thursday night for a two night getaway in Park City. We enjoyed some fun, entertaining times at the West Gate Resort and cannot wait to go back!



Unfortunately, we failed to take any pictures with us in them.

Oh.....and......P.S.

Venita and I are officially home owners! Best part is- no moving involved!! It was a good deal for both Mother Bailey and us so we couldn't pass up the opportunity. At least now we'll see the rewards from all the renovations we've done.

This is us at our signing after I was given my key right back.

Proud Daddy!

We would proudly like to introduce the newest member of the family: Co6aka (Sabaka) Simmons. Born July 28, 2009 @ the Singleton Residence. We are thrilled to have Co6aka join our family and to officially be part of the Singleton family. Unfortunately, due to being born so small, Co6aka will not be able to join us at our home for a few more weeks. Until then we will be visiting him at the nursery on a regular basis.


Look at the cute little guy snuggle up to his papa.

and his cute little 1/2 yorkie, 1/4 maltese, 1/4 schnauzer face!!!



IT'S A BOY... in all his glory!!!
