12 Days of Cheer! Annual Christmas Parade

12 Days of Cheer! Annual Christmas Parade // Ammo the Dachshund

Every year I look forward to a very special event in my home town. And that special event is the holiday Christmas parade! And lucky for me I always have a front row seat right outside my shop window in town!

Of course when the parade starts I’m always the first one out the door to cheer for all my favorite floats and parade attendees.

I’m always sure to sing along with the school bands in my best cheerful Christmas voice – because singing loudly for all to hear is the best way to spread Christmas Cheer!

Pretty colors, holiday happiness – it’s what makes this time of year oh so special.

And lets not forget the Christmas clown…..because laughter always brightens everyone’s day!

Also, in case you were wondering, don’t worry, I wasn’t the only pup in attendance during the Christmas parade. Just check out this pup who took one for the team and dressed up as one of Santa’s reindeer! He looked so convincing I almost asked him for directions to the North Pole!

But the very best part of the holiday Christmas Parade is always when Santa arrives!

I made sure to shout out my Christmas list as we rode by…..incase he missed my other 5 letters I mailed to the North Pole!

Merry Christmas! Ammo the Dachshund

12 Days of Cheer! Christmas Parade Time!

Every year I put on my best holiday gear and get ready for the Downingtown Christmas Parade in town.

This year was no exception!

Being that I have a 9-5 job working as official shop greeter at mom’s shop in town, parade time I have to work extra hard to invite parade goers into the shop for free hot cider & cookies!

Luckily I’m pretty cute, so my job usually isn’t that hard. *wink*

After working hard at the shop all morning I was excited to hear that the parade was about to start. I made sure I got a front row seat for all the action!

The parade was just as fabulous as always, but the most exciting part is always SANTA!

Hey Santa! I hope you got my Christmas List! See you again in a few days! Ammo the Dachshund

Road Trip with Ammo – Thanksgiving in North Carolina

On my last full day in Asheville, North Carolina I got to spend Thanksgiving day with my friends and family.

I spent most of the morning lounging on the front porch and soaking in the sun.

It was nice to spend the day relaxing with loved ones.

Eventually Trooper and I got bored though – and a wrestling match soon followed. It didn’t last long though, because dinner was soon to be ready.

Inside I shared a feast with my friends, including me new pal Arlo.

Arlo was way prepared for Thanksgiving in his tuxedo, and he had me feeling very under dressed.

All in all I spent a wonderful Thanksgiving day in Asheville and next time I return I hope I can listen to my Uncle Taylor’s band….I’ve already warned them that I play a mean set of drums…should the need arise.

The next day Trooper and I stuffed ourselves back into the car and headed towards our home in Pennsylvania. It’s nice to travel and experience the world, but there is nothing quite like coming home to your own bed! Ammo the Dachshund
