Last year Merilee bought me a Webkinz for my birthday. I didn't know anything about them, but Kaitlyn and Carly came for a visit and educated me right away. Some of the games are kind of fun, but it is more fun to help the grandchildren play and especially great to send them gifts for their pets.

Lexi has been working hard and saving her money for a new Webkinz pet. She finally figured she was pretty close so we took a trip to Cody to go shopping. Only two stores in Cody carry them and the first one was closed. We looked through the window at all the pets displayed - Lexi was very sad. We finally located the other store - they only had a few to choose from, but it didn't matter. Lexi saw the pink dinosaur and latched onto it immediately. By the time we had finished our happy meals and headed for home she had named her dainty little dino Tinkerbell. I got a camel and of course her name is Alyce!! (as in Alyce the Camel has 3 humps)
Lexi and I had a fun trip - she learned two new songs - Little Tom Tinker and Sweetly Sings the Donkey. She is just like her Granny and sings little songs all day long. She loves learning new ones.

The best part for me was the hugs and kiss and hearing - " You are the best Granny in the whole world!" By the time we reached Greybull, I had her convinced that I was the best Granny in the whole universe. She still doesn't quite understand what the universe is but she knows it is bigger than the world!
