good old arizona

so i got home yesterday and it feels so good to be home. charlee did pretty well on the flight. her ears didnt seem to bother her at all and she sleept most of the time. though it was alittle harder than i thought it would be. charlee's not much of a crier but as we were getting on our second flight, which i almost missed she was screaming! she was hungary and tired. i was planning of feeding her inbetween flights, but i barley had time to get to the next flight. i literally sat in my seat and the plane left the gate. i was carrying two bags and her and she was screaming and it was amazing how many bad looks i got from people! at least the the lady sitting next to was nice. she helped with my bags and even buckled my seatbelt for me while i was trying to get charlee to feed. she did good the rest of the flight. jake and his brother trae started driving today. they are stoping in chicago and staying the night. they will get her on friday and will go hunting the rest of the weekend. were so glad to be home and i cant wait to see everyone!

ocean city

jakes sister bethany is here this week to visit so we decided to go to ocean city and go to the beach. its about two hours away. the drive isnt too bad. we only stayed for short time becuase it was pretty humid and charlee didnt like the sun that much, or the water it was a bit too cold for her. but we had a great time.

charlee and her daddy
we keept her under an umbrella most of the time, but she still sweated like crazy

my friend alissa bought these sunglasses for her, they were a bit too big. the package said newborn to 3years. she didnt like them that much either.
