Charli's goes to Salt Lake City, UT

Mommy & Daddy took me to Salt Lake City, Utah for the first time last weekend!
It was lots of fun! Mommy went "skiing" on Friday and I got to spend the WHOLE day with Daddy! Mommy said that she did more falling than skiing but she had fun! On Saturday we had a family day!!! We went tubing and I even got to ride a tube ALL BY MYSELF!!! Mommy keeps saying that I am such a big girl! As you can tell I got kinda tired and had to take a nap but it was still fun!!! We ended our family day by going swimming...I LOVE SWIMMING!!! Its like taking a bath but with a lot more water!!!

I am so Blessed!

Greetings All-

I know that it has been a while since I last updated the blog but I have been keeping Mommy VERY busy.

Thanksgiving was so much fun this year! My Aunt Sissy, Aunt Gina, Gamma, Cousin Lauren & Cousin Emily came up to see us. We went to Daddy's cousin's house and cabin for our Thanksgiving feast. Mommy, Daddy, Aunt Sissy, Cousin Lauren & Emily got to go sleading. I didn't get to go b/c I fell asleep with Gamma. It was so much fun! But I did get to go to Santa's Workshop! I even got to sit in Santa' lap.

After Thanksgiving we decided to take it easy for a couple of weeks. But we didn't rest long b/c me & Mommy left for Arkansas December 9th. Before we made it home we took a short detour to Texas to see my NEW cousin Emma. I was so excited to meet her. I know that we are going to have SO MUCH fun in the years to come.

We then headed off to Arkansas. While we were in Arkansas I got dedicated! It was so much fun. I got to stand on stage with Mommy & Daddy and got to see a lot of my family!

After my dedication I got to hang out with all of my family. It was so much fun to see all of my cousins!

Once Daddy got to Arkansas we headed off to Shreveport to see our BBC family. Mommy & Daddy had so much fun getting to see all of their friends again! And I had a BLAST hanging out with PaPa T & JuJu!

I hope you all had a wonderful holiday! Mommy & Daddy keep saying that they are truly BLESSED to have such a wonderful family. We had so much fun and I can't believe it's already over but it was definitly a BLAST. We love you!
