Lately I’ve been trying to help out my two newest villagers, Hornsby and Bones. I want to get their villager pictures, after all. Well, it’s probably too soon for Bones’ pic, but Hornsby has been in town for nearly six months. So maybe I’ll get lucky one of these days.

Since St. Patrick’s Day is coming up, I made another dream visit to the town of Shamrock. It’s one of my favorite dream towns to visit. If you haven’t seen it before, or just want to see it again, head on over to dream address 6E00-0026-F069.

Gulliver was in Forest one day recently, and he sent me a matryoshka from Russia. I’ve been checking to see if any of Gulliver’s items could be customized at Re-Tail, because I wanted to add that information to my Gulliver Guide. I’ve now tried them all, and the matryoshka is the only one that can be altered! It can be changed from ladies (the default) to gentlemen. This is what it looks like:

It didn’t take long for one of my villagers to ask me for it. 😛 Hornsby wanted it tonight, offering to give me a soccer tee for it. I agreed to the trade, just to be nice.

Joey the duck was at the campsite tonight. My town is full, but I probably wouldn’t have invited him to move in anyway. He’s okay, but not one of my favorites.

Bob again told me he was planning on moving away (on March 25th this time). But I denied his request, as usual. 😛

My recent dream visitors have been Harrison from Town 50, Jula from Bellay, Noelle from Unicorny, Bunny from Pastel, Gretchen from Madroño, Jack from Olive, Timber from Xing, and the lovely BroknToe from CakeFart. 😀 Thanks for stopping by!

If you’re looking for more Animal Crossing content, check out my latest Animal Crossing: Wild World video, Episode 13. It contains highlights of what’s happened in my ACWW town over the past two months.

Last night, Boots asked me for some new furniture. So I gave him a flea. It’s hard to imagine anyone being happy with a flea when they requested furniture, but he seemed to enjoy it. He said he’s going to train it to be the world’s most athletic bug. Well, they are strong jumpers.

He rewarded me with a plaster wall.

Today, I saw some butterflies flying around. I always enjoy the first butterflies of the season, because they are a welcome sign that spring has arrived.

It’s Molly’s birthday, and she was celebrating in her house with Vivian.

This is the 5th year that Molly has celebrated a birthday in Forest. And she’s celebrated with someone different each time. In case you’re curious, here’s the list:

• 2014: Kidd
• 2015: Sprinkle
• 2016: Daisy
• 2017: Lily
• 2018: Vivian

Should I feel bad for letting her best friend move out every year? Oops. 😛 Also, I noticed she hasn’t changed her wallpaper or carpeting in all that time.

Anyway, I gave Molly a chocolate heart for her birthday. She seemed to enjoy it.

Vivian was also having a good time at the party.

I got a peeing statue (Manneken Pis) in the mail today, after helping Gulliver yesterday. Hornsby noticed I had it (maybe it was leaking out of my pockets), and he asked to trade a black-denim jacket for it. I agreed to the trade.

Bob told me he was planning on moving out of town on St. Patrick’s Day, March 17th. But I’m not letting him leave yet, so I played the role of shamrock blocker.

I then went up to Shampoodle, and used a certain hair guide to make my annual transformation into Mohawk McClover.

My recent dream visitors have been Gabby from Bliss, Mayounna from Amy Rose, Ryan from Old Aik, and Lovely from Rose. Thanks for stopping by!

Once Bones settled in, I visited him to see what his doghouse looks like. It’s Bones’ homes! I mean, home.

On February 25th, the snow all melted and the grass turned green once again. Welcome back, spring! I also changed my path from blue bricks to green bricks.

Bob sure seemed to enjoy the spring sun. In fact, he even enjoys it at night. 😉

I used the Amiibo Camera to take a picture of my current villagers. It’s hard to get a good picture without anyone blinking! 😛

Boots asked me for a new greeting, so I…um…gave him one.

As you probably know, balloon presents usually fly from one side of town to the other…east to west, or west to east. But as I’ve mentioned before, they will fly south to maneuver around obstacles. I saw one make a detour around my fountain before resuming its eastward path.

Tonight, Bones asked me for some new furniture. Re-Tail had a men’s toilet for sale, and I was tempted to buy it for him. But I thought I would be nice this time, since it was my first furniture favor for him. So I bought him a metal guitar instead. Rock on, Bones!

In Club LOL, I attended K.K. Slider’s Saturday night show. He performed DJ K.K. for me. Velma and Daisy were also in the club, sitting on opposite sides of the room.

My recent dream visitors have been Caleb from Explode, Helena from Crystal, Leanne from Starlite, Reese from UK, Serene from Lucky, EDO from Camelot, Chelsie from Mistwood, Aaron from Zapshire, Maisie from Venus, Kiki from Moonhill, and Elaine from Seatown. Thanks for stopping by!

By the way, if you haven’t seen my latest video, please give it a look. It’s a look back at features that were in City Folk, but not in New Leaf. Maybe some of these 11 things will return in a future Animal Crossing game?
