2 weeks..

Tomorrow marks 2 weeks that we've been here. Seems crazy. It hasn't gotten easier, I just have to keep myself busy and mind off of things..  I'm not working and I'm so grateful to be able to take and pick Kamry up from school and just be a mom and wife for a little while. 

Michael has settled right in with Questar, the guys here are great, and have taken him right in. He has A LOT to learn and that will take time. But he is really enjoying his new job. 

Kamry has struggled with school a little bit since we've been here, such a big change and adjustment, but, she is getting better day by day, and is making some new friends. 

She is a loyal face-timer and has her daily appointments with Erica, Grandpa and Grandma. 



Kemmerer


1st day @ Kemmerer Elementary. I was so sad to send her.. She is my best little friend, and I miss her like crazy when she's gone. But she is the cutest, and will do amazing things! xoxo 




She said the K is for Kamry... I agreed. 







Hard day..

With all the hustle and bustle of moving, I didn't get any pics of the in between. We loaded up and left Cedar on Friday February 13 @ 6am. My parents in their truck, me and Kam in my car, and Michael in his truck. We made a few stops along the way, and finally made it to our destination about 6 hours later. It was a very long day. Traffic was busy, and this trailer was packed, loaded down, and so heavy.  I can't begin to express the gratitude I have for my parents, they took time off work and away from their busy lives to help us move, clean and make this new place our home. 5 days was not long enough. We loved having them here, and wish they could stay forever.  I dreaded this day.. They took such good care of us, by feeding us, buying all our groceries and house hold needs. It was by far more then they needed to do. This has not been easy for me.. I sobbed when they left. I could have very easily crawled back in the truck with them and went home and never looked back.. I hope this get easier and we can enjoy our time here. I know it will be so good for our little family to grow and for Michael and I to have to depend only on each other. I look forward to the day we are able to make our way back south.. until then, I hope WY treats us well.. 

Moving..



1 trailer, 2 trucks, 2 cars.. We are moving, and we are loaded! I know it will be hard and will take time, it will require dedication, and willpower. It will require sacrifice... But I know this is where we need to be. Changes are scary. I hate change. I'm comfortable and content here. But I know that when we are comfortable we don't grow. It's a bittersweet feeling. I'm a mess of mixed emotions. and I'm nervous. But I am excited for our future and our new adventure in Wyoming, I hope it treats us well.. 


Kamry is loved



Our sweet neighbor hand made these adorable doll clothes for Kamry as a going away gift. She is very talented and Kamry is so excited for her dolls new wardrobe! 



She has some pretty amazing friends in Enoch and is certainly loved! We will miss these little people!


Intermountain Cedar City Clinic


I was very fortunate to LOVE my job. and I truly loved my job. I worked with some of the best employees, and Doctor's around. I made some life long friends who I will never forget. They made me feel so loved on my last day at work. I was so sad to leave, and yes, I did shed a few tears.. How could you not feel the love?  

Happy Anniversary

January 20. This was a very bittersweet day for us! This day marked 8 years for us! and I love Michael more and more each day. 
We both worked just like any other day,  and were planning to go to dinner that night. I was on my way home from work at about 530 when I got a call from Michael and all he said was "I GOT THE JOB" my heart literally sank. I couldn't breathe, I couldn't even respond. I knew what this meant... 
When I got home, I walked in the house, and he just hugged me, I still couldn't even speak. I was completely in awe. We went to dinner as planned and tried to talk about what our future now held. Michael was scheduled to start with Questar Gas on February 17.  So, we had just under a month to give our notices at our current jobs, find a place to live, pack up our lives and move to Kemmerer Wy.  Some say I am brave, some say I am crazy.. 
I am not brave, yes, I am crazy. I would NEVER have expected to be leaving Cedar City, my home. Through the last couple of weeks, I couldn't even think about it with out tearing up. This was such a big deal to me, and I had a very hard time making it seem real... 
I am truly grateful for my husband and doing whatever it takes to make a better life for our little family. I have trust in him that this is what's best for us right now. I have faith that this is where we are suppose to be, and with him and Kamry, I will be ok. 


Bonzo Family Pictures

















Movie Night

We took Kam to see Big Hero 6. We all loved it.. 
Love my little family. 

Who's who?

These are my most favorite twins.. I love these boys, and the bond they have. They have such a strong love for each other, and it shows. 
Michael and Tommy

1st tooth, gone!






Kamry's bottom tooth was loose for at least 2 weeks. The permanent tooth was making its way up and was pushing the baby tooth out. She would not pull it. We tied a string around it and tried to make her pull it that way, but she wouldn't so my mom finally flicked it out with her finger nail, it started to bleed, and she flipped out. But was excited after all the nerves settled down. She wrote a note for the tooth fairy an asked if she could please keep her tooth. She got $1 and got to keep that tooth! Good Job Kam, you're so brave! 


Dream big, little girl.. xoxo

We took a quick weekend trip to Vegas to see family. Saturday we went to see the Lion's, we lucked out and got to see Siegfried from Siegfried & Roy. He gave the kids a quarter with a tiger sticker and we got a picture. (that was deleted)  





Taking it back to Easter

My cousin Danielle, her boys Chance and Reed came to Utah from Iowa for Easter.We had a lot of fun. the kids had an easter egg hunt, we went to Zion, and went shooting eggs ( unfortunatley I couldn't get those pics to download :( 
We also took Kamry to an Easter Egg Hunt earlier that month in Enoch.
