The Wickershams are a very large family. I think that as random animals are collected over the years they most often become a Wickersham. Or a cousin of the Wickershams.
Due to conflicting reports, it took me a while to figure out just what their background is, but apparently at the moment they don't have parents. They live with Gramps in New Mexico. I guess that particular location was a compromise for Alyssa and Jojo. Alyssa wanted them to live in Mexico, but Jojo said they had to be Americans. So New Mexico it is! Gramps owns an arcade there. Fuffy and Piglet attend Icicle Creek Lodge Daycare Center, where "we don't play video games...we play poker!!!". The Wickershams have a bit of a reputation for causing trouble. This family has really been torn up by the Box. I was able to get some portraits of the remaining members, but as for the ones in storage i will just try to piece together their places in the hierarchy.
This is Gramps. I get the vibe that he's a bit of a dork.
Tommy is taking Boo Boo's place in the family, right now. Apparently Boo Boo is at navy camp, but i'm pretty sure Alyssa doesn't know where he is.
Jack doesn't say much, he's actually the Wickershams' pet dog. But he has a lot of personality and he does laugh at them, which i guess doesn't count as talking.
Piglet, or just "Pig", is adopted. He is always getting himself into scrapes and fighting with his sister, Fuffy. He will make you laugh, no matter what. Not because he has jokes, but because it is just hilarious when he falls off the couch or gets run over with Fuffy's motorcycle.
Fuffy (you pronounce that like "foofy" but Alyssa told me it's spelled f-u-f-f-y). This kid has spunk! She can take down any of her brothers, and even her babysitter. She is, above all, a troublemaker. Her best friend is Hobo Jim. Their relationship began the day that Fuffy came up to Boo Boo and said "Hey! Hobo Jim gave me a dollar!" and Boo Boo's response was, "Where'd Hobo Jim get a dollar?" Apparently he stole it off an old lady. Just Fuffy's kind of guy.
The bears have rough playtime.
The absent:
Buddy - a scruffy, brown, slightly limp dog who is a compulsive gambler (*cough* and a cheat *cough*) at Icicle Creek.
Tony - the Wickershams' cousin.
Freddie (otherwise known as Kook) - the babysitter. He's a multi-colored cat, and he often has to break up fights between Piglet and Fuffy
Toby - Fuffy's twin. He's a very small dude, actually he and Fuffy are "miniature build-a-bears", whatever that means. They are 3-4 inches tall.
Boo Boo - According to the family, he's at Navy Camp, not in the Box. He is a white (well, off-white) bear. His gender was actually a matter of tension between Alyssa and Michael, my older brother. Boo Boo belonged to Michael, once upon a time. According to Michael, Boo Boo has always been a boy, but when Alyssa started playing with him she said he was a girl. They made an agreement that if Boo Boo stayed a boy, Michael would pay Alyssa twenty dollars when he graduated from college. Michael graduated one year ago, this May. As far as I know, there has been no paying up but Boo Boo is still a guy...
