Blake turns 4!

My BABY turned 4!  I cant believe how fast they are growing up. We had a nice lil birthday for Blake this year. He got some transformer toys and other superhero toys.  He loves his superheros!

We also got to hangout with Monique and Firas. We swam, bbq'ed and hung out with them while they were here in Vegas for the weekend.

Our Last Hurrah!

 School is starting in 2 weeks! This summer went so fast. So for our last hoo-raw we used our free room at the Aliante Casino.

Blake and Rami are taking a break from swimming.

Our last morning...Rami is lounging reading the paper. What more can you ask for?! It was awesome. I can't believe the summer is practically over and we will be back to a routine and going to school. No more sleeping in and just doing whatever we want for the day.

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.
