Bellagio Gardens with the Mitchells

Our lil super heros.

This year the kids decided to be super heros with thier best friends.

Blake and Eva are spiderman and spidergirl, while Syd is supergirl and Bella is batgirl.

And we wanted to get the most out of these costumes so we are having them wear them every chance we get. We went to see the gardens at the Bellagio and check out how it was decorated for fall.



Evette & Hectors Wedding Oct 2010

Getting ready for the wedding was lots of fun. All the girls in the Michaelis family were together in our coordinating robes getting our hair and makeup done.

But we are missing 2 of our brothers.

Blake thought the music was to loud. 

But loved running around with his Uncles.

Sydney and Jubie danced the night away. They were the first ones on the dance floor and stayed on it the rest of the night. The two of them even caught the flowers when Evette tossed them.

It was great to see our Uncle Don and Aunt Carol. 

Everyone had fun dancing and talking with eachother.

And Blake ended the night falling asleep. That was our que to get home. 

A Day with Tatiana

 Both Tati and I have been moving around alot and she's been on the eastcoast the last 9 years. Well now she's back on the westcoast! Yay we are so happy we get to see each other more often now.

So we jumped at the chance to meet up and go hiking.

Man it was so humid. We were huffing and puffing.

 Im so proud of Sydney who hiked the whole way. 1 1/2 miles. Blake made it up which is really good for him too but we carried him on the way down.

Havin fun at the waterfall.

After our hike we enjoyed some strawberries at the street fair.



The wheels on the bus go round and round.

Blake loves riding the bus. But it still makes me get teary eyed everytime I put my lil man on the bus. He's growing up.

One year older and Wiser too...Happy Birthday to you.

The kids and I threw Rami our own little surprise party. We got him tiramasu (his favortie, well one of his favorites) and made some yummy cupcakes for us. The kids had a lot of fun decorating and getting things ready. They especially loved hiding when he got home from work and yelling and surprising him.

First day of school 2010

Sydney is so excited this year to be a big girl and go to school all day. She was up at 6am this morning just dying to get to school and see her friends. Sydney loves the fact that she will have recess and lunch at school this year.

Blake my baby headed off to preschool today too.  He even got to ride the bus to school. My baby is such a big boy. He was just so excited to ride the bus. I on the other hand was sad to see my kids growing up. I cried when he got on the bus.  Rami followed the bus for a little bit but felt like a crazy parent so he came home. lol.  I still  drove to the school to see him get off the bus and go with his teacher.  I can't wait to pick them up and see how there day went.

Enchiladas, Beans and Rice

Rami and I got to sqeeze in some date time!  We went to my favorite Mexican place out here. I love the enchilada and crispy taco with beans and rice.  Lets not forget the chips and salsa. MMMMMM I already want to go back. I love that place.

Growing up with my family we always went to eat at Taco Ernie's in Cali for any and all occasions.That was one of our traditions and happy memories with my family.  My mom has been going there since she was a kid growing up with her family.  So thats why I probably still love having enchildas beans and rice. I will always order that.
