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?
