Ugly Sweaters and Holiday Cheer

Posted on by

Now that it’s December it’s about time we started singing Christmas carols, baking cookies, and wearing ugly holiday sweaters.

So when my pal Bullseye the Target Dog sent me a little box of “holiday cheer”, I knew he had the right idea.

So I stuffed myself into that ugly holiday sweater, whistled the tune to jingle bells, batman smells…. and had my own little holiday party.

It was glorious, and just what I needed to kick off the holiday season!

Christmas Tree Shopping

Posted on by

Every year around this time I go on a very special hunt. A hunt to find a Christmas Tree! Just like I have done for the past several years (2010, 2011) – my family and I headed out to the Tricolor Christmas Tree Farm. You know, the place where the trees are born.

It’s very important to get your tree early – as to have the pick of the very best trees – so that when Santa arrives on Christmas Eve he’ll be like:

“OMG this is the greatest tree ever, you deserve all the presents in my sack Ammo!”

So when we arrived at the tree farm I wasted no time in choosing the very best tree on the lot! I just screamed holiday cheer!

I hurried along with dad to get my very precious tree to the car, because the most exciting part was next…….decorating it!

I’m pretty sure Santa will be very impressed.

Only 22 days until Christmas! I’m not sure I can wait that long! Ammo the Dachshund

I’m a fan of a lot of things – cheese, hot dogs, squeaky toys – but being a Number One Fan requires a lot more work.

You have to pay attention at all times so you don’t miss a second of the action.

You have to be willing to brave the elements and come prepared with extra blankies.

You have to keep your eyes glued on your favorite players at all times.

You have to keep a mental score as well.

You have to cheer the loudest out of anyone.

You have to empathize when the game gets a little tough.

You must never give up hope.

Holiday Parade

Posted on by

On Saturday was the Downingtown Christmas Parade that comes right down the street in front of my shop. As per our yearly tradition, me and Trooper staked out the best spot in front of the shop to watch the parade go by.

There were marching bands galore and lots of amazing floats this year.

And despite the cold temperatures the streets were packed with people excited to watch the parade go by.

This guy on top of an old fire engine even waved at me! He must read my blog.

The parade was so much fun, but my real duties of the day were inside the shop – where I handed out hot cider and cookies to all the chilly parade goers.

I might have had to sample the goods too, you know, to make sure they were tasty enough for my guests.

So what about you, what kind of things are you doing to get into the Holiday Spirit? There’s only 14 more days until Santa comes to visit! Time to get your Holiday Cheer on! Yipeee!
