Random News

Part 2 of my random news!
On the 24th we had a big party for the 4 Webkinz with birthdays in late August: Charley the Clydesdale, Choco the Mocha Pup, Ophelia the Splash Dragon (Mom's pet), and Sylvia the Silversoft Cat. There was a lake to swim in, a salon for those in need of a makeover, a ring toss, and a zipline. Also, there was a big dance floor and a concert by the Wildcats.
From left to right:
Juliet the Russian Blue/Charcoal Cat mix
(Really as a Webkinz she's just a charcoal cat, but she looks like a Russian Blue to me.)
Sardina the Siamese
Willie the Tuxedo Cat
Mayhem the Black Cat
Midnight the Black Cat (married to Mayhem)
Sneaker the Tiger
The Wildcats use their talents to do covers of some of my favorite songs, like Stray Cat Strut, What's New Pussycat, and a few Webkinz POTM songs. The girls (Juliet and Sardina) like singing Eye of the Tiger, Born to be Wild, and Magic Carpet Ride. The Wildcats also did multiple performances of their newest hit, Middle of Your Heart.
Here's everybody dancing:

I have been doing karate for one year now, and on Saturday I got my purple belt. After purple belt there are 3 degrees of brown and then black. There were 9 people testing for their new belt on Saturday, including me.
On Tuesday we're doing our first day of school. We would have done it on Monday but Mom's working. Besides, it's Labor Day so I don't have to do school anyway. :)

Webkinz News

Hi!!!!!!!!!!
I've got a ton of news!!!!!
First of all, I know you have been waiting eagerly for news on Pasqually's and Daisy's new baby, so here it is:
Here is Ally Hibiscus Bewhiskered (on the far left), born at 10:24 AM on August 13, 2013! She is a Tropical Island Puppy and will go by Hibiscus.
 Hibiscus is a very healthy and energetic baby who has already made a few friends. Her parents can't believe how fast she's growing!

Second of all, we solved the mystery of the Signature Marble Cat who came earlier in August. It turns out the whole thing was a misunderstanding! Auntie M had actually ordered it for herself, but she had sent it to my house so I could take care of it. We adopted her on Auntie M's first Webkinz account and named her Betsy as planned.
To make up for it, Auntie M sent me a Signature Ragdoll Cat! I named her Veronica and she's best friends with Betsy and Chloe (Auntie M's first Webkinz, a Signature Calico Cat, who is staying here). Veronica also adores fashion. She will be a judge for the other FashionPetz runway shows this year and is planning to enter in next year's competition.
Chloe started a Signature Club for the kitty friends plus my other two Signatures and Auntie M's other two Signatures. I'm making a TV show about the club based on the Webkinz YouTube hit Signature Island:
There are two different versions, the original one and a newer version. You can watch them both or just watch one. Careful, though, you might get hooked on it like I did!

Third of all, a couple of Mom's Webkinz got married recently: S. Armatus the Stegosaurus and Cerisa the Bubblegumasaurus.
Maid of Honor: Sprite the Citrus Dragon
Best Man: Vesuvius the Lava Dragon
(Vesuvius and Sprite are married.)
Flower girl: Sea Biscuit the Sea Horse
Ring bearer: Humphrey the Stormy Dragon
Officiator: Raleigh the Old English Sheepdog
Pianist: Sophia the Persian Cat
(Raleigh and Sophia are married.)
All the pets in the wedding are Mom's, except for Raleigh and Sophia who are mine!
And after two hours of uploading pictures and typing, I still have more news!
I'll save that for another post.

1,000 Pageviews and a New Webkinz!

Hi everyone!

Over the 3 years and 2 months I have been on this blog, I have reached a total of 1,001 pageviews!!! I'd like to thank everyone that contributed to that number, followers and visitors alike. You guys are awesome! 

:) :) :)

I would also like to introduce my new Webkinz who came in a mysterious package from eBay on Saturday. She is a beautiful Signature Marble Cat. She has already found lots of friends, and she got to go up to Nana's on the weekend for our firework display and Decoration Day.
I'm pretty sure it's a girl, but I'm still trying to come up with a name. I was thinking Betsy Butterscotch Bewhiskered, and I haven't thought of anything better. That's probably what it will end up being, because if I have a good name and I can't come up with anything else, the name always sticks!
I'm not exactly sure who sent her to me, but I think it might be a certain Auntie M... ;)
If you sent her to me please comment!

Make sure to check back on or after the 13th for news on Daisy's baby!

Having An Awesome Summer!!!

Hi!
I hope everyone is having a great summer!
This is what happened to me this summer so far:
First, I just finished my 6th summer of swimming. Since I am 11 now, I moved up to the 11+ group in practice this year, which also means I have to swim 50m instead of 25m in the meets. I absolutely hated it at the first meet, but I got used to it pretty quickly.
Here we are at the pool party to celebrate the beginning of the season (which actually got postponed twice due to rain):
A picture of our pool during a home meet:
 Backstroke starts at an away meet:
We had our conference meet for 11+ Friday evening (the one for 10- was Saturday morning). We swam in a big 8-lane pool. I just found out this morning that we won! The end-of-season pool party (which is also when we get our conference ribbons and end-of-season awards) is usually the Sunday 2 weeks after conference, so it will most likely be on August 11.
Now for some news on the Webkinz:
In late May, Pasqually the pumpkin puppy and Daisy the petal pup got married.
 It was the first outdoor Webkinz plush wedding, so they had to watch out for the native bugs, but it was pretty nice. Mayhem (the black cat behind the stegosaurus and the other black cat) played the piano for the ceremony and Loose Strings (Emma Beleaguered, Juliet Bewhiskered, and Ashley Bewhiskered) did some bluegrass for the reception. The bride even starred in one song!
 Pasqually and Daisy took their honeymoon at a friend's house. They are a happy couple and Daisy has a baby girl due on August 13th!
Now, here are the online Webkinz (on my first account) having a great summer! Strawberry the pink poodle is diving into the CampKinz pool we won from the Marshmallow Collection in the bottom right of the screen. Caroline the dog and Emma the white poodle are enjoying the swings. Taylor and Catherine (the identical cats) are all decked out, both in the same outfit! They are all into the returning star from the Arcade, Skater Kat, so they are taking turns practicing on the skateboard so they can (both) dress up as her for Halloween.
Somebody left their hat in the pool!
 On my 2nd account is the Persian Cat, Sophia, in her new shop, Sophia's Sweet Treats!
Sophia is going to pass the shop down to her daughter, Bon Bon the Pom Pom Kitty, when she is born.
Maybe it could be called Bon Bon's Bon Bons! :P
...or maybe just Bon Bon's.
:) Happy Summer from Darling Daughter and the Webkinz! :)
