    I am only 25, but I always find it so beautiful how we all can enjoy this game together, literally no matter our age! I hope this holds the same for the next Animal Crossing game that comes hopefully in the next year or 2!
    Beautiful island from your mom! It helps to remind me that an island can be beautiful without codes and fake buildings!

This is such a special island to have to always come back to. Thank you for filming this and sharing it with us!

    I love this! Please thank your mom for letting you share it with us. I’m close to 70 and just started playing as well. It is so much fun and I love the fact that you guys can play together. I have discovered TIs so I guess I’m not a ‘pure’ player but I’m having much more fun now that I can decorate to my heart’s desire and I guess we all play the way we love. Your mom takes such good care with her villager homes, I think she would love the DLC. Christmas is coming, it would make a great gift! Thanks again, please say hi to mom 😊 BTW, that’s a Turkey Day rug in the kitchen, one of my favorites!

Her clear enjoyment in the spirit of the game as it was created for play…Please, thank her for her courage in sharing her island with us. I know how tough that can be - she’s my hero 😊. My husband loves me dearly and bears with my love of this game; I dragged him over to watch this tour and he actually said “wow, she did a great job!”. He’s a clean lines guy 😊.

      I may have put lots of custom paths over parts of the actual pathway in different areas,
      But I love the fact that the actual in game pathway does show up on the map,

    Your mom and I play somewhat similarly so I loved seeing her island! She’s made so much more island designing progress than me though lol. I’m just slow and indecisive. The sitting area by the water near the mush stools and glowing moss, etc. was actually super cute and calming. Like it looked so peaceful over there; imagine having a nice moment just sitting by a calm river or pond. So cute.
    I don’t think I’ve ever seen that rug she used in the kitchen. Also the color coordination of her bedroom with the pinks and greens and the white. So nice!
    Do you know how far she has progressed with her Nook Mile Achievements? Also Team In-Game Pathing let’s gooo. Also Jacques is so cute. Excellent job, LumiMumPlays💙
