Check out this hunk-of-burnin' love I married :)

Gregg Simons | 1995 | senior year

friday flashbacks.

My mom was cleaning out last weekend and found this picture I had drew when I was little - she said she could not throw it away because it was so funny... if you look closely you can see that I drew myself thinking about a baby!

Dallin and McKay are not in the picture so I must have been somewhere between 5 and 7 years old.

And yes, we did have a black cat named Midnight.

Camille and Nate | June 2004

It's my brother Nathans birthday on Monday so this Friday Flashback is for him!  I have so many great pictures of Nate, but I love this one!  It is the day I got home from my mission.

Happy Birthday Nate the Great, you really are great!

Friday Flashbacks.

I was looking through some old photo books and found this little gem.

A report card that my older sister Tiffany {a.k.a. my 'pretend' school teacher} wrote to my parents.

Tiff, I am sure your kids will get a kick out of this!

What a gem!

Lynn and Bob Simons with Tara and Gregg | Summer 1978

Do our kids look like Gregg?

He is about 6 months old in this picture.

{Krista looks like Lynn that is for sure!}

This was a serious favorite pass time of ours when we would visit our grandparents in Idaho.

Friday Flashbacks.

My aunt posted this picture on Facebook this week.  It's my mom on the left and her older sister Christine on the right.  Love it!  Year?

 I immediately thought of this picture!

 My Grandpa Arave sent me these pictures this week.

He was my dad's scout master growing up in Coltman, Idaho.  

Someone help we out with the year and who everyone is.

Anthony Quinn | Age? Year?

With school starting I wanted to share this cute picture of my little brother Anthony.  My mom would have us stand on this bench in our mud room for our yearly "first day of school" picture.

Someone help me out with the year and his age.

Friday Flashbacks.

Gregg | 1982 | 4 years old

Gregg told me he loved doing puzzles that is why his mom took the picture.

I love his bead spread - we still have that blanket!

Friday Flashbacks.

My mother-in-law just gave this to me.  It's a letter Gregg wrote {I think she said for his 8th birthday} on why he thinks the Nintendo is better then the Atari 7800!  It is a pretty good persuasive essay for an eight year old!  Gregg and I laughed so hard when we read it together - he said he remembers writing it.

Why I think the Nintendo is better then the Atari 7800!

1. The graphics are better.

2. I think the games are better because they are harder.

3. The controllers have a B and an A button, a select button, a start button, and it has four arrows instead of a stick.

4. It has a zapper gun and if you are a fraction of an inch off the target you're missed.

5. The Nintendo comes with 2 cartreges, 2 controllers, and zapper light gun for only $99.99.

6. If you buy the power pack Nintendo it comes with 3 cartreges, a huge pad, 2 controllers, and a zapper light gun

{then he makes three big boxes where his parents can mark "Nintendo" "Nintendo power pack" "no"}

If you say yes to the Nintendo or the Nintendo power pack here is twenty dollars to help you buy it.


Love,
Greg


P.S. You can get it at KB Toy store, Lional play world, or Target.

Tiffany.

Happy Birthday to my big sister Tiffany today!

Me and Tiffany - we did ballet together when we were little!

 I had to include this picture because Tiff had the BEST '80's mullet - and I was jealous of it.  

My mom would curl all that hair in the front with a curling iron every morning.

The news here in Utah has been doing specials for the past two weeks all about the 2002 Olympics that took place in Salt Lake City.  For Friday flashbacks I figured I would flashback to February 2002 when my family went to Africa during the Olympics {Gregg will never let me live it down that I left town for the Olympics}.  

Our "home" for a 16 day safari.

Valine, Paul, Tiffany, Nathan, Camille, Anthony | March 1988

When Tiffanys oldest daughter Addie was baptized last June my mom and I looked everywhere for a picture of Tiffanys baptism.  I just found this picture of her baptism so I wanted to link the two pictures.

{I remember when this picture was taken!}
