Happy Birthday Dear…

This post was originally published July 8, 2008

Ryan, Connor, and their cousin Sarah love their Webkinz! Webkinz are good friends: they play board games with Ryan when everyone else is asleep; they keep Connor company at bedtime; they don’t complain when they are tossed or dropped or walked on; and they provide hours of conversational fun and new ideas, on the computer, but even more so, off.

Since each Webkin, when registered on-line, has its own birthday, it seems only natural that the kids would want to host a birthday party for their fuzzy friends. With Grandma’s assistance, the kids planned a party for their Webkinz with summer birthdays complete with balloons, candles, singing, and best of all… an ice cream cake. A little over the top? Maybe, but then isn’t that what Grandmas are for?

Plans for the Fall birthdays are already in the works.
