Our 500th Post!

I'm surprised we made it to 500 posts! I really can't believe that its been more than two years and 500 posts later and I'm still wanting to blog another 500-1000 for all of you :) So many great things have happened on this blog, Wizard101 and Pirate101 since I started this blog. Here's a year by year schedule of all of the things I loved since I started blogging :)

2010

I started blogging in 2010, and most of my posts were about Celestia (Wizard101) that would be released soon and I was very excited about that. Most of my posts that year were about Celestia, new pets and my first parties on Wizard101. I would love to go back and do it all over again :) 

2011

2011 was a huge year, it was my first whole year of blogging and I've had some downs during that blogging period but I've had a lot of ups too! I hosted my first contest thanks to Autumn Dreamwalker, I started blogging again right after my hiatus from blogging and made 270+ posts that entire year. This isn't my favorite year of blogging though... look at 2012..

2012. 

MY FAVORITE YEAR SO FAR!

Like it says, this is my favorite year of blogging so far! I've had so many accomplishments thanks to all of you, this blog reached 100 followers, then 150 and then 200 followers in one year! All three of these were huge goals. Another goal was accomplished that I didn't mention, to have fun with you all. This year has been a fun year full of excitement :) Oh and lets not forget to mention becoming an official Pirate101 blog, I owe a huge thanks to Friendly Necromancer and the community management team and all of you. I wouldn't have submitted this site if it wasn't for you :) This site will remain a FANsite :) One more thing... Contests. Wow, I've had a lot more contests this year than any other year! I have a end of the year contest going on, an Admiral contest, a 500th post contest.... SURPRISE! This is for you, thank you so much for all of the great years of blogging and here's to more years of blogging!

Boochbeard Clause!

Ahoy Pirates!

The other day I made a post about my idea of a Pirate101 Christmas . Have you ever wondered what Boochbeard would look like if he decided to dress up like Santa? I have since August. You're probably wondering if I have a picture of Boochbeard dressed as Santa, the truth is... I do! :)

Thank you Cody for making this, what do you think of this picture? Do you think he could be a good Pirate Santa? Or do you think he should stick to be only a Pirate that gets into a lot of sticky situations? Maybe he could do a little bit of both! Comment below and tell me your thoughts about Boochbeard Clause!
