Weekend at the cabin

Mike's grandparents have a cabin near about an hour from Yosemite up in the sierra mountains. We got to go up there for a couple days and it was so relaxing to be away from all the gay people that live near us and that we work with...


We went to Kennedy Meadows which is right down the dirt road from the cabin for dinner one night... it was delicious. My first time eating prime rib and it was so good. I used to like my meat medium well but ever since I have been with Mike he has introduced me to tender more delicious more alive meat as you can see from the picture below.


MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO... haha


We built a fire... he did some but I did the most important parts.... OK he built the whole thing. It was an awesome fire and it was so nice out. We had stuff to make smores but didn't feel like making any so we just ate the materials separately.


This is the image of me dominating Mike... well right before I did. I doubled my amount of chips and he had to take more out of the chip bucket just to pay me off... it was awesome.

The front view of the cabin and of Mike


Looking for fish in the river


I wanted to fish bad but we didn't have a fishing license and I probably wouldn't have caught anything anyway. One day....


The awesome cave waterfall. The water was freezing or we would've swam to the cave.

There were HUGE carpenter ants crawling everywhere and they are invincible. We kept trying to kill them and they wouldn't die. This is Mike trying to drown one but it kept swimming back to shore. We found it fun to keep this little guy trying to save himself. Then we put him on a log and through him under the waterfall... good luck surviving that one sucker!




The kitchen........................ Obviously
The living room... notice the awesome fireplace



The room we stayed in or the master bedroom if you will






That is it and I cant wait to see alot of you in a few days... and you are all really attractive.

Buy me some peanuts and cracker jacks...


We went to the A's game in Oakland, Ca last Sunday. Mike's job gives all the techs bonuses and his boss saved it all up so we can have a fun time at a game instead of going to the movies once a week or having pizza. Mike got fried on his right side and my arm was pretty burned. I guess we will never learn to put sunscreen on.


Mike got us these sweet jerseys and hats to wear at the game. We looked so hot.


We love fun dip!

I wish this picture was lighter. This is us at our Oakdale open house. It was really nice. there was delicious food and a pretty good turn out. I am guessing about 100 people came. We scored on gifts too. Oh and I have gained weight since I last wore my dress so every 30 minutes or so I went out into the hall and had my friend Erica unzip my dress so I could take a breather. It sucked I need to lose some poundage before the next reception fo sho!


Me, Cass and Erica holding Aiden before it all started. Cassidy did my hair and I did my makeup. My hair was so hot... Thank you Cassidy!

This is the suit we got for Mike. It is really nice and he looks so handsome in it. There aren't many photos in existence of Mike without a hat on people so soak it in.


Mike forgot his tie at home so I had to go get another one. I got $5 off because there was a little snag on it and it was the last one of its kind. I think it worked out pretty well


Aunt Nancy, Me, Mike and Cassidy under the gazebo that we were stuck under for almost 2 hours.

Michael and his older brother Phillip. It was so nice to have all the help we did from Mike's old ward and his family. Everything was done so nicely and so quickly. We also had a projector to play the video Zach made us.


My new father in law Jeff, Me and Mike and his mom Terri.... That was one of the longest days ever!!! I had alot of fun at the reception and thought it turned out SO nice. I had alot of fun meeting all the people Mike has known his whole life and all of his best friends. Even though I can only remember a small handful of them... I will post again soon because Mike and I get to go to his grandparents cabin up in the Sierras for the weekend to get away from all of the worldly things... no TV, phones, jobs. It will be so nice to just have a Bonn fire and relax. Check back soon!

A Cup O' Tea

Mike Grew up in Oakdale California which is about an hour from Tracy where we live. He grew up with this chick named Erica. We started hanging out and I love her! She is so awesome. This is her and her daughter Aiden. They came to Tracy to have dinner with me and go to the pool. Since Mike gets off so late and so did Erica that night, she and Aiden just spent the night so they wouldn't have to drive an hour and Aiden was asleep by the time Mike got home and so we all talked for a couple hours and I heard a lot of good stories of them growing up.



My new sister-in-law Kate and I went to Wells Fargo and they had this cardboard cutout thing so we asked a teller to take our picture. She pulled her hair through the hole with her head to give it a more realistic look and I have 3 arms. we look funny.


Some guests that are staying at Mike's parents' house came with my father in law and new brother-in-law Brandon to see a firework show for Pioneer Day. It was a pretty good show. a field near where we were standing caught on fire and was all ash the next day. We must have left in perfect timing.

Cute little Brandon... Oh and he is straight gangster by the way...obviously


My favorite Dad at our Parry family reunion. He looks like a biker or a thug but he wears it well whatever it is

Me and some cousins and sibling at the reunion... Good times. This pictures captures the most exciting activity we did the whole time.



Me and my part time lover, full time cousin Kimberly Camberlango. She is so hot...even if she is camping


Sister-in-law and my very handsome nephew Jack who won't even touch me with a stick or look at me for bribes. But he seems like a nice enough sort.

My lover Kim, brother Jacob and sister-in-law Kate doing more exciting things...
Like sitting

My beautiful niece Cadence kept biffing it while she was walking. She has one band-aid on her knee in this picture but the next couple of hours after that she had like 4. Poor girl. And my mom wasn't feeling well so she was asleep in the cabin and right when she woke up and came out to join us Cadence started crying for Grandma. My mom is the best Grandma I know... That isn't a grandma to me of course


New cousin Cassidy, new BF Erica and I went to the Turlock city fair to see the Doobie Brothers perform and went the wrong night. So we ended up having to be tortured through Little Big Town.... which is my least favorite type of music, Country. Ugh. So we went the next night and saw The Doobie Brothers and got one of those old fashioned pictures taken. It was my first time and I love it. I will scan it in the next time I have access to a scanner and post it because it really is awesome.



Us at the fair in the Jurassic Park Journey or whatever they called it

I played a dart game and popped a balloon my first 2 tries and then missed but then with my last one I popped like 4 at the same time. I won a cute little frog wearing a crown for Mike and a teddy bear for Erica and Cassidy! I am an amazing dart player.


The hat that was fashioned especially for me at my bridal shower thrown for me by my sister in laws and a close friend of Mike's family "Aunt" Kristen. They made it tea party themed which was so cute. and I scored on gifts by the way! Shout out to whoever contributed!





Mike and I are seeing who can get the highest score on songs. I won most of the time I am not going to lie... like Zach and my mom do... I was kicking butt! And Mike is not wearing a shirt by the way because if you notice I am wearing it. We were taking pictures for Zach and were wearing the same outfits in them. Zach is a genius!



One of Mike's friends that works for the same company and lives in the same apartment complex got a dog. Since they work all day everyday I go over there to dog sit everyday. Plus they have cable and we don't which is a huge bonus! She is so cute. She is half border Collie and half Rottweiler. I love her and I am going to have to give her up in a month.








Thank you Zach for making me the best wedding video ever! You are awesome! I watch it almost everyday because I love it so much and can't wait for everybody else to see it! Until next time.
