World Cup

World Cup Soccer // Ammo the Dachshund // Team USA

Today marks the official start of the FIFA World Cup, and if you haven’t guessed already I’m a huge soccer (football to many of you) fan just like my dad.

It’s also probably quite obvious that I’m rooting for team USA….after all I am an American.

But you know, if they allowed dogs to tryout for the team I probably would be their star player right now (well and if they made soccer cleats in puppy sizes). Even better than Clint Dempsey!

Not only would I look great in the USA uniform, but I’m also quite exceptional with the soccer ball.

Dribbling and passing, even goal scoring – I can do it all!

I’ve even mastered my GOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAL yell! And after all, that’s the most important part when it comes to soccer!

So hopefully without my awesome soccer skills USA can still take home the World Cup title, although it would of been a heck of a lot easier with me on the team!

A Camping we will go

Screaming at the top of my lungs this past weekend to cheer on my pal Boomerang wasn’t the only highlight of my trip to Maryland. Oh yes, I got to go camping with my family!

After helping pack the horse trailer  – Boomerang, mom, dad and me headed south for the weekend.

I love camping because it means I get to spend lots of time outdoors doing manly outdoor things….like collecting sticks.

Helping dad build the campfire is also quite fun – although it is a shame that all those perfect chewing sticks will soon be going up in flames.

But, it was quite chilly on Saturday night, so I was happy to sacrifice a few of my sticks for the sake of warmth.

This time I got to test out my new camping tent – as the last one I accidentally burst a hole through when I couldn’t find the door….oops.

The good news is my new tent passed my rigorous test and I was extra warm and toasty all night inside mom’s sleeping bag.

When I wasn’t cheering on Boomerang or doing camping things I chowed down on french fries and fruit smoothies in the spectator stands.

I also got to help mom score some of the other divisions. Although to be honest I did use it as an excuse to take a nap.

At the end of the weekend Boomerang thanked me for coming along to cheer him on.

He even showed his appreciation by taking me on a pony ride – isn’t he the sweetest?

You can check out my super awesome pony friend Boomerang in action this weekend by watching the video below.

Number One Fan

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.
