Family visits over the summer

We have been very blessed this summer to have many of our family members come to Vegas to visit us! Leila and Deena enjoyed their youngest cousin Kamila who is 10 months old. They loved playing with her on the floor and making her laugh and giggle. Leila was great with Kamila and helped feed her and take care of her. Leila will make a great babysitter in the future.

Rami especially enjoyed a visit from his older cousin Danny. They spent a lot of time swimming and went to New York New York and rode the roller coaster together as well as the rides at Circus Circus.

Leila also had her Aunt (Amto) Dania visit for a few days. With the exception of Leila stepping on and breaking Dania's glasses, it was a fun time!!

We also had our cousins Sophia, Aiden and Gus with Aunt Jenny and Amo Sham come to visit us from northern California. Leila spent most of her time playing with Sophia who is the same age. During the same visit we also had Tata and cousin Zach come from Ohio. Rami and Zach had fun swimming and playing Legos. Deena had fun with Gus and Aiden.

Camp Cartwheel - summer 2009

Leila has had a great summer filled with a lot of fun! Both Leila and Rami were able to attend a summer day camp through the Nevada Childhood Cancer Foundation. The camp is an hour drive outside of Vegas located on a private ranch in a canyon area. Camp Cartwheel is a day camp for the younger kids, and the older kids get to stay overnight for the week. Next year Rami will be old enough to stay all night.

The week consisted of music, singing, dancing, arts and crafts, swimming in the lake, canoeing, archery, karate, games, making new friends and eating good food. Leila and Rami had a wonderful time and look forward to next years Camp Cartwheel.
