Michaelis Family Reunion 2010

Its been at least 4 years since I have been up to Utah to see my Grandparents and all the family we have up there. I think its been that long for my Dad too. So in order to make it up to the reunion we left Friday from my house. My brother and sister played and took care of my kids while I drove us up there.

What was supposed to be a 6 hour drive turned into an all day event because we had some problems with our tires and spent alot of the day waiting for the tires to get fixed. It was a long day. UMMM did I mention it was a freaking 109 degrees up in Utah!!!! Yea I leave Vegas thinking Im going somewhere cooler and it was just as hot!

but it was well worth it because we made it to the reunion and got to see grandma and grandpa and all the Michaelis Family. We even got to hang out with Steven who now lives in Utah working as a Wildland Firefighter.

4 generations

I even got to visit Homeskillet. My most favorite college roomies. We had some fun adventures.

While Rami's parents were in town visiting we tried to go out as much as possible. So I would put the kids to bed then Rami and I went to try out BINGO. It was fun spending time together and Rami even won some mula. My sister says she has never seen Rami smile so big as in these pictures with his money, lol. 

4th of July 2010

4th July this year was spent at Roberts House where we had Taco's and watched the men give us a firework show.

Blake burned his finger this year with a sparkler. But he was a lil trooper once we got ice on it.

The girls sitting getting ready to watch the fireworks.

Hiking Mt. Charleston with Teeta & Gido

Swimming & Mt. Charleston

To beat the heat from the Vegas heat can be done in 2 ways:

Swimming and lots of it with Friends.

And heading up to Mt. Charleston which is around 20 degrees cooler then Vegas and only takes 30 minutes to get there. It feels like normal weather when your there and almost a little chilly at times.

Summer Boredness Leads too:

Fathers Day Weekend 2010

Was spent at the Stratosphere for the weekend. We never left town but still we

felt like we were away from it all. It was a nice lil mini vacation.

We did alot of relaxing and swimming in the pool.

And even went to the top of the stratosphere. Where Rami kept freaking out if I got the kids to

 close to the windows to check out the city. LOL. He's afraid of heights.

Happy Fathers Day
