Today is New Year’s Day, so Happy New Year, everyone! Isabelle was standing at the event plaza to celebrate the occasion. She was talking about her doggie nature, because 2018 is the year of the dog in the Chinese zodiac.

I also stuck my head into the fireworks. …Standee. Sorry, I should have finished that thought.

Isabelle gave me the zodiac dog, and I took it home to take a look at it. Hey, it’s potty trained!

Today is Bob’s birthday, so I made sure to visit him to help him celebrate.

For his birthday present, I gave him a Mouth of Truth. 😛

Rolf was also there at the party, and I think they had a good time.

One of my Christmas presents (see my Christmas haul) was a 3-pack of Splatoon Amiibos. I scanned the squid Amiibo, and Inkwell the octopus visited the drive-in campground. Inkwell’s RV is splattered in ink and covered with Splatoon brand logos.

Inside, you can find a bunch of items from Splatoon. This includes the ink-splattered wall, ink-splattered floor, black anchor tee, pilot goggles, Splatoon spawn point, Splatoon tower, Splattershot, squid bumper, studio headphones, Super Sea Snail, and Takoroka mesh (cap). I ordered the black anchor tee, since I often wear an anchor tee in Splatoon (even though the one I normally wear is white).

As for Inkwell, I may invite him to move in at some point in the future…just not now. I already have three Amiibo villagers in Forest, and I’ll probably wait until one of them moves out (even though I don’t want them to move just yet). But I’m willing to wait. I’m not going anywhere.

My recent dream visitors have been Suna from Galifrey, Erica from New York, Mayounna from Amy Rose, Alex from Cacao, Dylan from Calmv, Ari from Martinez, Lauren from Woodfall, and Logan from New Leaf. My dream visitor count has topped 2,000 (since the Welcome Amiibo update in late 2016). Thank you all for visiting!

Today is Christmas Eve (Toy Day), and I was finally able to complete my Santa outfit. Outside, I spotted the northern lights for the first time this season. It’s definitely looking festive around town!

I found Jingle the black-nosed reindeer near the town tree. He gave me the Santa bag, which had all of my villagers’ Toy Day presents inside.

I then stopped to take this picture of Jingle, my town tree, the northern lights, and my modern clock.

I then started going around town to hand out everyone’s gifts. My first stop was Bob’s house.

It’s nice to see my villagers so happy when I give them a gift. 🙂

Boots’ gift was a lotus lamp, and of course he put it in the same spot where he always puts his lamps. 😛

Since I had all of my clues, I was able to successfully get everyone’s gifts correctly. Here’s the list of what each villager wanted and what I gave them.

• Agent S: gray lamp – mini lamp
• Aurora: aqua umbrella – blue dot parasol
• Big Top: black doll – lucky black cat
• Bob: beige musical instrument – timpano drum
• Boots: a pink lamp – lotus lamp
• Hornsby: red plant – poinsettia
• Molly: gray carpet – modern tile
• Rolf: pink umbrella – candy umbrella
• Vivian: pink doll – wobbelina

So I returned to Jingle and told him I was done. He thanked me for the help, and he then gave me a festive wreath for my help.

My recent dream visitors have been Connor from Starloft and Jack from Newlea. Thanks for stopping by, and have a very Merry Christmas! If you’re getting a new copy of New Leaf for Christmas (either for the first time or for a 2nd/3rd/4th town), remember to use the face guide to start out your character right!

Happy Holidays! 🙂

I’ve been checking out the campsite for igloos, and on Sunday, Baabara was inside. I already have her in my GameCube and Wild World towns, and that’s more than enough for me. A person can only handle so much Baabara.

I purposely answered one of Gulliver’s questions wrong recently. If you’re wondering why, it’s because I wanted to see how much the chocolate coin sells for. It’s information I wanted to include on my new Gulliver Guide. Give it a look when you have Gulliver in town and don’t know the answer to his question! (Or if you just want to see what all of his items look like).

Big Top sniffed out a fossil in my pockets, and he offered to buy it off me for 1,400 bells. I agreed to the deal.

I’ve been continuing to collect Toy Day hints, and I now have all but two of them. So I should be able to complete the event without much trouble…unless an unexpected 10th villager moves in before then and throws me off.

As for Vivian, she made it clear that she will not be happy if she gets the wrong gift. 😛

I remembered that I need something else for Toy Day–the Santa outfit! I know the shops should have all the items on Toy Day itself, but I wanted to prepare ahead of time, if possible. I’d be out of luck if I played after the shops were closed! But the only part of the outfit the shops had today was the beard. At least the beard will remind me to look for the other pieces. 😛

My recent dream visitors have been Yoshi from Actor, Mayounna from Amy Rose, Pinky from Catville, Maleah from Kirikun, and Lolo from Lolland. Thanks for stopping by!

A message on the bulletin board informed me that tomorrow is the winter solstice, the longest night of the year. In New Leaf, it stays dark the entire day! I don’t plan on blogging tomorrow, but I will likely blog on Sunday (Toy Day aka Christmas Eve). So I’ll see you then! In the meantime, I’ll be posting a new Animal Crossing: City Folk video on my Youtube channel tomorrow.
