Mr. and Mrs. Simmons

Well we are back..... but now happily MARRIED ;) What a way to come back to blogging after 5 months of preparing for an AWESOME wedding and having my soldier home!!!! Today is December 30, 2009 and real soon we will be approaching 2010. We are both excited about what God has in store for us and can't wait to see God move us in a way that will change our lives.

Yes, I did deactivate my facebook account and so did Ryan. For many reasons we did this but I do think God was showing me what an idol facebook was and what should be more important!!! I was addicted to seeing all the talk and honestly my life shouldn't have to revolve around what people do all day or say. I absolutely loveeeedd talking to everyone and reconnecting BUT not every second I breathe (lol) So I just have decided to blog more and lay off the facebook. ***(The "Love Dare" actually told us to get rid of our habits .........so this was one I had to say buh-bye too----trust me, it made a HUGE difference in my life ;) )

As 2010 approaches in just 2 days-----Ryan and I have so much to look forward to! He has decided to sign for active duty and we meet with them on the 12th. A lot of people ask where we stay at........well we are enjoying the "free" stay with my parents but we would like to adventure out and start "Our" own family ......if ya know what I mean? For those who may not know, Ryan and I got married on December 5th, 2009. We went on a very nice honeymoon to Key West and Bahamas which definitely helped with all the stress that we have been dealing with. The wedding of course was a dream come true for the both of us. My parents.....I can't THANK enough and all of the party looked amazing.

****Also thanks to my dear friend Kori Brashier (who was the photographer) and did a fabulous job by the way. She was actually pregnant and delivered on December 29th.....Jaxon Reid. CONGRATS to "The Brashiers." There were sooo many people we didn't get to say hello to all because the day goes by so fast and there were people everywhere (LOL) We both want to say THANK YOU soooo much for coming and spending your time with us. Ryan and I feel so blessed with ALL the gifts we got and cards. Our wedding day we will remember forever and appreciate everything from everyone. We love ya'll!

HAPPY NEW YEAR and God Bless.

** Praying for Cruz, Jordan and Tyler......all soldiers who have been called over seas. Please keep them and their families in your prayers. Thanks!**
