Happy New Year!

Last night, I took some villager pictures to Isaiah in his town of Palm Bay. Enjoy the pictures, Isaiah!

20151231_HNI_0095Back in Forest, the countdown to the new year was on. Isabelle gave me a glass of sparkling cider. Even though I didn’t watch the countdown in New Leaf, I left my game in sleep mode and returned to it shortly after midnight. Rolf, Pashmina, Aurora, and Crazy Redd joined Isabelle and me in the event plaza.

20160101_HNI_0002I gulped down my cider as Isabelle looked on. Happy new year!

20160101_HNI_0011Tonight, the northern lights were in the sky above as I started up the game.

20160101_HNI_0017Isabelle was at the event plaza again, but this time she was telling me to swing through some trees like monkeys!

20160101_HNI_0022I’m sure Porter wouldn’t like to hear that! Why not suggest that I run my own train like a monkey? Hmmm? Anyway, 2016 is the year of the monkey, so she gave me a zodiac monkey. I put it in my house by my new 2016 sign.

Zodiac Monkey ACNLThere was a fireworks face-cutout standee at the event plaza, so I stuck my face through it. I had a blast.

20160101_HNI_0024I chatted with Velma over by town hall, and she told me that her new year resolution is to get really good at eating spicy food. Practice makes perfect!

20160101_HNI_0025Up on Main Street, Luna told me that Serenie from Cutiepie was my most recent dream visitor. Kevin from Leafside was yesterday’s visitor. When I went into the Happy Homes Showcase, I checked out the home of someone I StreetPassed, Miles from Animalia. There, I found a wet-roadway sign that had been customized to display a kangaroo! Nice sign, mate.

20160101_HNI_0031I hope you’re all having a great New Year’s Day, and I hope 2016 is a great year for you all! 🙂

Talking About the Weather

The other night, Aurora told me that she was so cold that her feet felt like ice cubes. But you’re a penguin! You should love this kind of weather!

20151228_HNI_0011Tonight, Daisy told me she was so frustrated that she considered sticking her head in the snow to cool off! I wonder what made her so frustrated. Maybe she was playing some ranked battles of Splatoon.

20151230_HNI_0072It seemed like everyone was talking about the weather. Peck warned me not to freeze my toes. Uh, or anything else.

20151230_HNI_0074I made a visit to Brooke’s town Novation to drop off a few villager pictures. She seemed to enjoy them. 🙂

20151230_HNI_0080I have more villager pics that I’m giving away (up to 3 pictures per person, but they can’t be the same villager). If you’re interested, contact me on Tumblr, Twitter, Pinterest, Youtube, or Facebook. I’m jvgsjeff on all of those places. Here is an updated picture of what’s available:

Note: I also have pics of Curt, Roald, and Bruce available.

When I updated my dream town tonight, Luna told me that Dante from Barkwood was my most recent dream visitor.

After identifying my fossils for the day, Big Top used his big nose to sniff my skull. My raptor skull, that is.

20151231_HNI_0084He offered to give me his vegetarian shirt for it. A fossil for a shirt is a very unfair trade, but I accepted anyway. I’m too nice to my villagers. But an election year is coming up, so it can’t hurt. 😉 Re-elect Mayor Jeff 2016!

20151231_HNI_0085I finished my night with some nice peaceful ocean diving. One of my catches was a scallop, and Pascal popped up to ask me for it. I handed it over and he gave me an anchor in exchange. He then left me with some words of wisdom.

20151231_HNI_0086In an attempt to appear wise, I didn’t respond.

I’ll see you all next time. Have a happy new year, everyone!

Velma the Bear Wrestler

Yesterday was Pashmina’s birthday, so I headed over to her house to help her celebrate. Velma, the town’s other goat, was also there for the party.

Pashmina's birthday party. I gave Pashmina a customized circle banner for her birthday present. She said she was surprised by the gift, but she later said it was awesome. I’m not sure if I believe her or not.

Pashmina's birthday presentHave a good one, Pashmina! I hope this birthday is your Greatest Of All Time.

Today, there was an igloo over at the campsite. Ozzie the koala was inside; he said he picked Forest randomly. Apparently, that’s how he picks out his clothes too.

I met up with Pashmina today, and she told me that Velma once wrestled a bear…and won!

20151227_HNI_009720151227_HNI_0098Could that be true? I had to ask Velma about it myself. I went to her house and I found her sitting at her piano. She told me to keep the rumor to myself! Wow, it must be true!

20151227_HNI_0001My recent dream visitors have been Raychel from Ardmore and Reby from Legoland. Thanks for stopping by!
