he,he,he,he,he,...trying to catch my breath...I just ran a whole block to catch that ball! I've been practicin' all day 'cause I really wanna make the team.. .you know, the Bad News Bassethounds. Just the biggest, baddest team around!
I cleaned up my house and got a new hat..see, it says EG for the Elm Grove Eagles. I'm ready for the big dog league and I gotta convince the coach to choose me!
I brought some stuff just in case the coach needs more proof that I'm one cool dude. I shined up the hydrant ..'cause you know when a guy's gotta go, a guy's gotta go! I found a cool bone in the trash and it didn't even have any ants on it! Unbelieveable! I think coach will love it. And just to seal the deal, food for everyone! Yesiree, I'm ready coach!! I'm Andrew and I'm #8. Pick me coach!
Thanks so much to Cindy for choosing Andrew to bless this week. I just know the love in these cards will help him feel better.

Tea hee! Now this is a great card for Andrew! Giggle! I would say he is quite prepared! He's got his number 8, his dog house (he can put the coach in there if he gets to yelling too much!), his doggie treats, a ball, his hat and the most important, crucial red fire hydrant cuz when you gotta go, you gotta go. Yah, its even worse in the doggie world! Tea hee!
Charlene! This is so incredible! Thanks so much for all the leg work in getting this challenge going for Andrew! I am tickled pink with all the cards going to Andrew and I hope it brings lots of giggles, smiles and fun to Andrew during this difficult time. You absolutely rocked this challenge! What a card, what a kick!
Psst..thank *the aunt* for me too!!! When the boys win the World Series, we will send you some bucks for your phone bill.....or maybe a dog bone or two! Giggle!

Super cute card! Great job in getting all the important details in, #8, after game treats, a ball, a great puppy right down to the stitching! And of course the team club house where you can take a rest in between innings. Fabulous card for Andrew! Hugs, Trish

Hee-hee! This is so cute with lots of wonderful details, Charlene! Love your story, too. I got such a giggle out of "when a guy's gotta go, a guy's gotta go!"
