12 Days of Christmas - Day #4

Merry Christmas!!

Oh wait. That's still over a week away. XD

Well, welcome back to another 12 Days of Christmas post! We are on day #4!

Before we continue, let's see who won yesterday's guessing game!

But first, here are the correct answers!

1. Candles! (What happens if one of them tips over and your tree burns?!)
2. Vixen! (Gotta show some love to this forgettable reindeer. :P)
3. Okay, this one, I accidently made a mistake! I said 'verse' when I meant one 'line'. Like just one time you sing Fa la la thingie. So, the answer was 8. XD
4. Parson Brown! (LOL, someone did Preston Brown which is close. XD)
5. Cindy Lou Who!
6. No! (The wise men gave gifts to Jesus when he was two!)
7. BONUS QUESTION: 4 A.D. Though, it could have been from 4 A.D. to 7 A.D. :)

And the person who answered the most questions correctly was....

Sarahkey8!!

Congrats Sarah! Your little prize will be in your mailbox shortly! ;)

And now! Let's look at today's 12 Days of Christmas picture!

On the fourth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me...

That means, "Four calling birds!" in bird language. :P

Three French skunks, two pet turtles, and a partridge in a diamond tree!

And today's little Christmas content is...

A comic!

Me and Koolestkat (My sister, for those who didn't know.) made a comic together for Nafaria's comic contest a little while ago. And guess what?!

It won first place! :O

I was so pumped! I actually won a contest! XD The prize was amazing as well! But I was mostly happy because everyone who reads AJ Whip's contest blog will be able to read something I helped make. ;)

Without further ado, here is the Christmas comic!

I hope you all enjoyed! Just to point out, just in case you didn't notice, in the end, the goat and lynx got buck teeth. It's just hard to see. XD

 

Well, have an amazing day and...

 

Have a merry Christmas and jam on!

 

12 Days of Christmas - Day #3

Hey jammin' jammers jamming around the jam tree! XD

It is day #3 of 12 Days of Christmas! :o So that means...

I shall post the line of the song very soon! :P

So, before I talk about Christmas, let's see what happened in update day!

Deer are back! That doesn't change much for me since I already have a deer from last year... o.o But seriously?! I don't remember deer being THIS popular last year! Yesterday, all I saw were deer. All the same color. Probably wearing skullys.

There's two right there. I saw way more yesterday though!

Skullys are back! Well, they have gotten redone so they don't look as beta, they are member, and diamond. I bought them already but I don't expect to wear them a ton...

Pet polar bears are back! :O I neeeedddd one!!! And gingerbread armor has come from the Play Wild app. I saw someone in Jamaa Township calling the helmet a 'head house'. XD

Reminder for the daily gifts and Jamaaliday jazz. XD

A new animal is coming! And a reminder to watch a silly video. Ugh, another animal...

Wait a sec, HOLD UP!

I just read something in 'Animal Jam Official Insider's Guide' that may make you change your mind about new animals. Lemme read what it says, "It's one thing to have an idea for a great animal character or an awesome new world. But how does it get from the artist's imagination to your computer? Technology! The team at Smart Bob uses software programs like Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, and Flash, as well as Autodesk Maya 3-D Animation, to create the virtual characters and worlds you know so well. Over 3,000 pictures are drawn to complete just one animal. The process takes about two and a half months."

C'mon guys! This 'ugh new animal' takes 3,000 pictures! That's a TON of the same animal! And then to make all the clothes in the whole GAME to work nicely on the animal! That's a ton of work!

And next up is a reminder that 2016 is leaving us soon. XD And to go to the Conservation Museum to go see Antlers, Horns, and Tusks or something. :P

And then the ever pleasant ad. ^.^

Now! To start...

Day #3 of 12 Days of Christmas!

On the third day of Christmas, my true love gave to me...

Two pet turtles, and a partridge in a diamond tree!

And today's Christmas stuff is...

12 Days of Christmas - Day #2

Ho ho ho! 😄 Welcome back to another post of the brand new post series!

So like I said in yesterday's post, I will be posting every day til Christmas. Each day, there will be a picture for the song, 12 Days of Christmas, Animal Jam-ized and a little Christmas content! Be sure to check back every day, especially on Christmas Eve and Christmas day! Those days will be special!

Also, you may or may not notice I put a little handy dandy Christmas countdown on the left side of your screen. That way, you'll know how close it is to Christmas without looking at a calendar!

Anyhoo, let's begin! 😉

On the second day of Christmas, my true love gave to me...

And a partridge in a diamond tree!

So today, I'm going to be talking about...

Christmas traditions!

When I'm talking about traditions, I don't mean those old boring traditions that last for generations and generations and generations, etc. I'm talking about just little fun ones that may or may not last into another generation.

Here's a list of traditions that I have around Christmas:

• Every year, my family pulls tickets. So we all write our names down on a piece of paper and put it in a bowl/hat. Then, we pass the bowl/hat around and each take one piece of paper. Whoever's name is on that paper you get is the person you have to shop for. But you can't tell anyone who you have! It's a surprise! On Christmas Eve, one of us gives our ticket gift to our secret person. Then that person gives it to their secret person and so on. It's super fun! This year I have ...! (LOL, I can't say! 😏)
• On Christmas Eve, me and my family open up our stockings. I usually go first. (Since I'm the youngest. 😜) After each person opens their stocking, we take a picture of all their stuff and them. And on Christmas, we take turns opening presents while we video tape it. We kinda take opening gifts real slowly! I love it though!
• On Christmas morning, I am usually the first to wake up. (Which isn't really a tradition but still! 😊) But then I wait until everybody wakes up. When my brother (Dreadwisp) wakes up, we play Wii or DS. But last Christmas, I played Animal Jam with my new membership and polar bear!
• On Christmas Eve, we stay up late and on Christmas day, we eat snacky foods for lunch and supper!
• On the 26th, me and my family usually have a lazy day of building Lego, drinking hot chocolates, and playing with our new 'toys'.
• Oh gosh, I better stop here! I just keep wanting Christmas to come NOW! 😭😂

Well, have an amazing winter day!

Have a merry Christmas and jam on!

12 Days of Christmas - Countdown!

Well, what do you know?! It's almost Christmas! ^.^

That's right, it's twelve days til CHRISTMAS! *screams*

To celebrate Christmas, I will be doing something kinda... how should I say this...

SPECIAL! XD

So, here's what's gonna happen:

Every day until Christmas, I am going to post a new picture! Every picture is going to be like the song, "A partridge in a pear tree, two turtle doves, three French hens, four calling birds, five golden rings, six geese a laying, seven swans a swimming, eight maids a milking, nine ladies dancing, ten lords a leaping, eleven pipers playing, twelve drummers drumming."

But there's a catch...

It's going to be the ANIMAL JAM version!

In this blog series, that will last for twelve days, I will talk about random things about Christmas. The posts on Christmas Eve and Christmas day will be even more special! So be sure to check back every day so we can celebrate together!

Alright, let's begin the first post of this series!

On the first day of Christmas, my true love gave to me...

So you see how this is gonna work now? :D I sure hope so!

Well, today's Christmas content is...

The very first AJJ Christmas party invite!

I hope to see you all on the 22nd at 2:00 CST! ^.^

I'll be back tomorrow with another 12 Days of Christmas post!

Have a merry Christmas and jam on!

Mini Announcement!

Hey guys! I just want to let you know that I finally publish Chapter 7 of Jamaasian High! Have fun reading and meeting new some characters!!

Christmas is Coming!!

Hola amigos and amigas!

Well, well, it is sure beginning to look a LOT like Christmas where I am. Yesterday was a total snow day!

I woke up to Christmas lights on the tree and walked to the window in the living room. And boy, there was a ton of snow! My siblings didn't go to college due to the weather. And now, it really looks like a winter wonderland!

Sleigh bells ring,
are you listening,
in the lane,
snow is glistening,
a beautiful sight,
we're happy tonight,
walking in a winter wonderland!

Ah. I love Christmas carols. ^-^

So yesterday, all I did was chill out inside, admiring the lovely snow, and hang out with my siblings.

And to make things more like Christmas, on Sunday, me and my family put up our (fake) Christmas tree and all the ornaments.

Every year, my parents buy me and my siblings an ornament. This year, I got a little fluffy llama that was made in Peru! It seems like the perfect ornament for this year. An animal for the year I made an AJ blog. ^.^

Well, since Christmas IS coming, I decided to make a holiday tag!

1. What do you want for Christmas (on AJ)?
Hmm, I really like party hats and Jamaaliday bows. I have no clue why, I just like 'em. XD

2. Do you have any Christmas traditions?
Yes, me and my family do. We have this Christmas cassette tape that is really old. Like, it was made in 1982. XD So we listen to it on some Sunday in December and then we put it away until next year. :P And then we have this other tradition where every Christmas morning, our breakfast is apple scones made by my mom that morning. My parents then put a candle in each of our scones except theirs and then we sing happy birthday to Jesus. Then we blow out the candles and eat the scones. ^.^

3. What's your most favorite part of Christmas?
Ooh boy. Everything? XD I really love all the family time and every December 26th, we build our LEGO and play with our 'toys' and things. It's so much fun! And then there's skating on the ice rink and sledding down the hill in my blue saucer thing. It's a lot of fun slipping and sliding down the hill while your saucer turns in circles so all of a sudden, you see the top of the hill instead of the bottom! And I love screaming with glee. XD

4. What do you want for Christmas?
An iPad! I want to play apps (like AJ - Play Wild!) and email on there too. I also want a Wii U and a Wacom Intuos drawing tablet. AND AJ TOYS!!!!

5. Do you believe in Santa? If not, have you ever?
I do not believe in Santa and I don't think I ever have. I mean, as a kid, I joked that my parents were Santa. (My dad was also the tooth fairy.) But no, I haven't ever really believed in Santa. ;)

I now tag:

Flora Cutegirl

Swirlshine

PenguinBoss

Karalee

Nafaria

Feel free to answer these tag questions in the comments!

Well, have an amazing day and I hope your Christmas is a jolly one. ;)

But before I go, here's a video of a Christmas song I enjoy. :D

Jam on!
