Just curious, how many of us just stayed home on New Year's eve.
We battled rain/mist and went to downtown London where there was public skating, a "Caillou" musical show for kids, and fireworks at 9pm - the "kids" new year countdown.
Happy New Year!

Art, like you said in your poll, you forgot one.
I fell asleep about 9:00 and woke up about 12:30.LOML was already in bed and asleep. She is still asleep and it is 7:00AM here.
Weather was somewhat lousy plus I am starting to dislike the snow, sleet and the cold stuff.
Hope everyone Had an enjoyable evening and got home safely.

Between getting ready for the drywallers (while they were working) and having fun with the kids this weekend, I was out in front of the TV at 9:30. We did order in a nice dinner though

There's no category for multiples--how about
out to a restaurant for dinner,
back home with just LOML, and
working until 1:30 a.m. (at home) while LOML went to bed at 10:00 p.m.
Humpf!

Huge party for three granddaughters and two of their friends: two five year olds, two seven year olds and the 10 year old.
Charlotte's Web at 5:30, pizza at home after, watched a little Disney Channel until 10:50, flipped the channel to Times Square to watch the ball come down in the Easter time zone, had everyone in bed by 11:15.
Happy New Year!
Tom, in Houston, happy to start the New Year grandfathering.

I guess we were multiple as well. Our neighbors three doors down invited several neighbors over for a dinner buffet party. It was a very nice quiet time getting to know some of the newer neighbors a little better. Then it was back home to play board games with the kids until midnight. In bed and lights out by 12:15 AM. We do not live exciting lives (most of the time anyway) and this was just fine for us.

My New Years Night started Saturday night.....The wife and her 84 year old mother sat up and played cards all night. The wife woke me up at 0200 Sunday morning. I got cleaned up...packed my suitcase. We left the MILs at 0330 and drove to the airport. Climbed on a plane at 0600 CST and arrived home at 1430 via Bloomington, IL, Chicago, Seattle. I fell asleep on the couch watching a football game about 7:00 p.m. and woke up about 1100 p.m. The LOML had gone to bed. I finally got to sleep about 2:00 a.m. and woke up about 6:00 a.m.........Wild and crazy here in Idaho.......

Stayed home where it's nice and safe. My youngest daughter, (9), decided to prepare a platter of cheese, cookies, crackers and grapes for the big occasion. We even had sparkling lemonade.

We had friends visiting from London during the day. Evening was trying to get kids to sleep so we could do the same.
I could cry for the time I've wasted, but thats a waste of time and tears.

As most of you know, our girls are from Russia just over a year ago--New Years is the "big" holiday there. Over the communist era, Christmas was verboten and New Years took over as the "gifts for children" holiday with Father Frost (Dyed Moros) doing the honors. So our girls got a gift on New Year's Eve and today we had Pelemeni (Russian meat ravioli/dumplings) for dinner prepared wonderfully by Dr. SWMBO.
