A Visit From Wisp

There was no snow in Forest today, but it was snowing in the city. When I returned to town, I shot down a balloon present. It contained a ranch tea table.

Shooting down a balloon present.Del seemed to be looking forward to Christmas. He was talking about the elf that rides in a sleigh.

Del: The calendar says we'll have a visitor pretty soon. You know who I'm talking about, right? No?I went in Bob’s house, and he mentioned someone that has not been on my friend roster for two a half years. That struck me as odd.

Bob: And at the top of that list is how to become as big a bell-pincher as she is, you elf!I went around checking for new black roses, but didn’t find any. But I did find something else, an empty lamp…

Finding an empty lamp on the ground.I also ran into Avery, and he asked me for a new catchphrase. I’m trying to go with holiday-themed catchphrases, and other animals are already using “you elf” and “jinglebell.” So I had Avery say “ho ho ho.”

Avery: Ho ho ho... Ho ho ho...Later in the evening, I came back to look for Wisp. He was near the southwest corner of town.

Wisp: But if you help me find my missing lamp, I'll give you something really nice.Wisp told me to go into my attic and rub the lamp, so I did. He then popped back out of the lamp.

Bob is Safe, So is Avery

It was snowing in Forest today. Avery told me he was thinking about moving out, but I asked him not to leave and he agreed to stay. This also confirms that Bob is safe as well.

Avery: And moving's such a hassle, anyway. All right, you've convinced me. I'll stay in Forest!Since it’s Sunday, I went to the city to check the new emotions at the theater.

Clerk: What show would you like to see today?I then returned to Forest to check for new flowers. I had one new black rose today.

When I was done, I decided to check on my other town, Bananas. I found out that my town fruit is apples. Then I talked to Copper to get my friend code.

Copper: Jeff, your friend code is as follows: 4385-0464-3060!I might very rarely open my Bananas gate. I’m willing to add a few of my blog readers. But I prefer to have a way to contact you other than these comments. So if you could send me a private message on Youtube, Twitter, Tumblr, or Facebook, that would be good. If you’re a regular, please mention who you are so I know who’s who.

But please remember, I can not guarantee that we will be able to play together. I will not be opening my Bananas gate on a regular basis, so please don’t get mad if things don’t work out. Also, the first time I open Bananas will not be until after Christmas.

Jeffro & the Christmas Lights

I got two letters in the mail today. One was from Jingle, reminding me that he would be in town on Christmas Eve. But the other letter was from Megan. Wait…how is that possible?

Dear Jeffro, Surprise! I guess I can still send you a letter while I'm in Forest. So.. I was in Forest when I wrote this. -MeganAh, so that explains it. Apparently you can still send a person a letter if you’re in their town, even if they don’t have WiiConnect24 enabled. Megan also attached a gift to the letter. It was the afro wig she bought by mistake last night.

Rowan: WHAT?! Seriously? I thought I was hooking you up with a super-choice nickname.After I turned his idea down, he made me come up with a nickname for myself. I told him to call me Jeff.

Nook had a festive tree for sale, so I bought it. I may end up replacing it with a bigger one eventually though.
