Ok, who isn't doing anything on NYE?

[Ava83]

NYE has it out for me so its best that DH, DD and I stay home and celebrate at home.

I am not tempting fate by going out

DD and I will probably do an early movie and then spend the evening at home., and have some special snacks. I am sure their will be games of Clue and Sorry! I think she was practicing from NYE last night as she was awake until 1am. At midnight I heard her exclaim - MIDNIGHT ROCKS!

My neighbor usually does a firework display in the cul-de-sac in front of our houses, so we can watch fireworks at midnight.

 

[Brianne]

Nope, we have no plans that night. My only hope is that my neighbors behave enough with the fireworks they're bound to set off & that there's no houses that go down in flames that evening.

Speak of the devil--I just heard some going off as I was typing that. Ugh.

 

[TinkerBess_SnowTori]

Nothing big here either

What is kinda sad about it is that it is DH birthday -- but there is always so much going on he doesn't like going out for it

 

[LaLa]

We always bring in the New Year with a bang.

Me and the kids will sit around in our little New Years Eve hats and jammies drinking Sparkling grape juice, playing with our noisemakers and watching the ball drop. DH will most likely be on the computer trying his best to take over Germany in some WWII PC game through all of this.

As you can tell, we're party animals here too.

I remember when we used to go out for New Years and we always had fun. I guess it changes when you have kids. I just can't imagine leaving them and bringing the New Year in without them.

 

[Blondie]

We're doing it nothing! And I can't wait!

 

[daughter_of_amid_chaos]

I'm not doing anything. Boyfriend is in tennessee so I am staying in. Don't really know what the rest of my family is doing.

 

[NMAmy]

DH and I have never been out on NYE. We usually stay home, have appetizer type yummies, watch videos, and go to bed early. It's wonderful. DD is at her dad's so I don't even have to worry about going out to pick her up somewhere.

 

[MsDisney23]

DH and I will go out to an early dinner. We always stay in.

 

[bicker]

Our New Year isn't until March 21.

 

[lewdyan1]

We usually go to my sisters house for food and games till about ten and then we go home to sleep! The New Year looks just fine when I wake up in the morning!

 

[kaylajr]

We decided when we had Kids that we would just stay home with the Kids and Dick Clark on NYE


This year DH and I both have to work EARLY on Jan 1
so we will be in Bed by 9 at the latest

and the girls will ring inthe new year at my parents

 

[smilie]

I was planning on spending it at home on the couch with my kitties. However, DH has informed me that we will be going to the in-laws for poker night. Of course that's okay with me, I've become a Texas Hold 'Em addict!

 

[LindsayDunn228]

We are going to some friend's house. I was volunteered to make lasagna so we are going to have dinner and just hang out. My hubby and I DO NOT stay up late so we plan on leaving around 9. Our friends know this and make fun of us. We ring in 9:00-9:30 every year

 

[Disney Doll]

Well, we aren't doing anything big. We will go over to my DSIL's house and have dinner & watch the ball drop...pretty much the same thing we do every Saturday night, with the exception of the ball!!!!

I hate NYE. I hate that people put so much pressure on an evening, thinking that their life is going to change magically without any effort on their part.

It's been years...probably close to 20...since I went to one of those big banquet-style NYE parties. I remember being kissed by a bunch of strangers who were drunk, and hating every second of it. The end of "When Harry Met Sally", where she's at the NYE party faking a laugh at a joke some dorky drunk was telling her...that was me.

 

[Disney Ella]

NYE and Valentine's Day are both holidays that seem so much more important when you are single and don't have anyone. The kids and DH usually make it to midnight on NYE, but I'm usually asleep. The nice thing is that the year actually changes whether I'm awake or not! I'm past the age of wanting to go out and get drunk, so staying home, in comfortable clothes, works for me.

 

[CyranoJones]

My DH always works on NYE so I'll be hanging out with my pals in EQ2, celebrating Frostfell.

 

[Charade]

My gf and I are not going anywhere. We've got a bottle of champagne and will cozy up on the sofa to watch the ball drop on TV.

 

[SDFgirl]

DH and I are going to spend NYE in a cabin with my family.

I think it should be fun - we're taking Cranium, SceneIt?, and Balderdash. There will be beer, but it'll be very low key. Probably be asleep by 12:30!

 

[mickeyfan2]

DH and I will be staying home.
