It's December - The Holiday Season

Hi there!

Can you believe that it's already December? It's already the final month of 2018! I am so ready for Christmas - I've already decorated my website! Christmas has always been my favorite Holiday out of all others. It's usually a busy time of year, but I shockingly have a lot more time than any other time to make new blog posts - like this one!

I have a lot of blog posts planned for this month - including the 25 Days of Christmas Music. This year is my 7th year of posting Christmas music here on my website. I look forward to sharing my favorite Christmas songs this month & many more times in the years to come! :D Speaking of years... our 4th Annual Santa Run is coming up! Keep an eye out tomorrow (Sunday, December 2nd) for the Official Santa Run Post. And don't forget the date... Sunday, December 16th! 

It's always such a blast having these Santa Run events for the community. The Santa Run in 2012 started all of the events, so this event has always been a special one to me. I hope you enjoy them as much as I enjoy them! By the way, if you plan on attending this event for the first time, we'll be streaming the event on Twitch starting at 12:00 pm Central - Sunday, December 16th. Feel free to click on the link below to access our Twitch Channel.

There is really so much to look forward to this month. Kingsisle always surprises us + there are awesome Holiday-Themed events from the community! This month is my favorite month out of the year & I look forward to spending time with the community & my family. I am thinking I might make blog posts of my real life adventures (such as Christmas windows, Live Nativity Scenes, etc.) right here on Around The Spiral. Keep an eye out for those posts, events, and more! Thank you all for reading & I hope you have an amazing Holiday Season. Merry Christmas & if you celebrate another Holiday, Happy Holidays!

Christmas 2018 - 25 Days of Christmas Music - Falala!

Hi there!

It's December! If you've recently come across my website, you may or may not know that I love Christmas. I love Christmas so much that each year I post a Christmas song each December leading up to Christmas Day! This year marks my seventh year doing this. :D

Christmas means a lot to me & my family. I feel like this time of year (no matter the Holiday we celebrate) brings family & friends closer together & reminds everyone what really matters. For me, it's family, friends, and overall life! I look forward to sharing this message through my favorite Christmas songs. Here's the first song of the month - Falala by Jim Brickman feat. Olivia Jade Archbold. Merry Christmas, everyone!

Pirate101: Christmas Returns To The Skyways (2018)

Christmas has returned to the Skyways! The talk of this update is none other than a new skeleton key boss, Krampus. For now, let's talk about all of the returning items such as Holiday Decorations, Mounts, Pets, and Gear! Kingsisle has decorated Skull Island with tons of beautiful lights, snowmen, Christmas Trees, and interactive Christmas presents which you can open for gifts. One of my favorite things about Yuletide in Pirate101 is that you can open the gifts under the rainbow tree in Skull Island. While you can still open presents in other areas, this was my favorite spot to open Presents. :D

You'll find many gift boxes in Skull Island - including a large gift box near the entrance of the Skull Island docks. This gift box is actually the new Krampus dungeon that we pirates get to defeat this Holiday Season! This dungeon requires the use of a Skeleton Key. Kingsisle has provided all of us pirates a Wooden Skeleton Key to try out this new dungeon:

KrampusKey2018

All is not as it seems when entering this dungeon. Prepare yourself for battle! Again, you'll need these Skeleton Keys to fight Krampus. You will get keys as drops from level-appropriate enemies in the Spiral. If you do decide to go through this dungeon, you may find yourself getting new items such as weapons, pets, gear, etc. This is a fun dungeon in Wizard101 and I definitely recommend pirates try it out. :D

On top of all of this, there are many, many Holiday Housing Items! I wanted to post them on this post, but there are so many that you can buy that I don't think it would fit on this post. So all I'll say is to check out the Crowns Shop & click on the Furniture section to check out all of these amazing items. Thank you, Kingsisle, for giving pirates all of these treats for the Holiday season! I look forward to trying out the Krampus Dungeon later today.
