The Babba

      Where to start...For my Dads 47th Birthday he received a Wal-Mart $4.99 water bottle from his sister Laurel. This was in revenge for the Taco Bell Bucks he gave her the previous year (They like to give each other strange gifts :)

My lovely new purple one!
 
 
      Little did we know, this water bottle would become a staple throughout the whole Simmons family. Laurel had her own and both she and my Dad swore by the double walled water bottle, not in a bad swearing way, and told everyone they knew of this fantastic find!

Laurel- a missionary of the babba.
 
     Not long after its name evolved into "the babba". Yes that is babba, as in...babba.(BTW this is all in good joking people. We Simmons's tend to get bored easily) As more were obtained, the name caught on. To this day Grandma and Grandpa Simmons, Scotty, Laurel, Camille, Dad, Preston, Christian, and I all own one in which we cherish dearly.
 
Baby blue babba was introduced into the family!
     Mom refuses in good reason, "straw sucking gives you smokers wrinkles" and even with the invention of the side sipping.
CD with his.
 There is much more to the story and the evolution of the babba, but unfortunately its for insiders only, sorry world! But now you know a snippet of where the babba came from, and if you don't understand anything I'm saying, thanks for playing along.

     Ummm.. I just realized my babba did not arrive home from Powell. Laurs do u possibly have it???
