Gumball Posted November 28, 2005 Posted November 28, 2005 Yes, I know it's early but has anybody started making New Year's Eve plans yet? Thinking about going to a party or just staying home this year? I've already seen a couple of small ads in the paper here for places that will be having a party, that's what made me think of it. There are only 33 days left in 2005.
mjmcca Posted November 28, 2005 Posted November 28, 2005 Yeah i plan to be in my uniform taking care of patients. I will be sipping on sparkling cider or grape juice at Midnight!
daworths8 Posted November 28, 2005 Posted November 28, 2005 We stay home every year and goof off with the kids. (Were not very big going out couple & neither of us drink) I get chips, popcorn, soda etc. we all just carry on and wait for the ball to drop, whoever is showing the best coverage for it. LOL were an hour behind the east coast so even after the ball drops we still have another hour till its actually new years here. Unless I can find something local on TV doing anything.
snakeswiff Posted November 29, 2005 Posted November 29, 2005 We have a huge party at our house with all of our friends....it's a blast!
Booterbunz Posted November 29, 2005 Posted November 29, 2005 The last couple of years, I've been staying home. At times, I like going out and have usually gone to house parties of coworkers or a club. We'll see what we do this year, hubby may want to stay in since his unit welcome home party is on the 29th! LOL
alimfp Posted November 29, 2005 Posted November 29, 2005 No idea yet. More than likely we'll stay home and our older two will stay up with us to see the ball drop on TV. I'd love to take DH out on a date and have Gma watch the kids, but I have no idea if that will happen. :)
gisellerol Posted November 29, 2005 Posted November 29, 2005 well me and my husband are going to a friends they always throw a big party with no kids and this year i have already ordered a limo to pick us up after the party and bring us home because I definitely will not be in any condition to drive. but i plan on having a blast!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Aaron Posted November 29, 2005 Posted November 29, 2005 I thought about going to the Dropping of the Peach.. :)
outnumbered Posted November 29, 2005 Posted November 29, 2005 My oldest will turn 6 on NYE so we'll have cake and ice cream. And I'll have to have my neighbor over for some late-night drinking after all the kids go to bed LOL.
copados1993 Posted November 29, 2005 Posted November 29, 2005 My husband is coming home from Iraq, so I plan on having the BIGGEST New Years Eve party we've ever had!!!!!!!
Jennifer0530 Posted November 29, 2005 Posted November 29, 2005 We won't be doing anything this year, only because I'm having surgery on the 27th to have my tonsils taken out.
shanni Posted November 29, 2005 Posted November 29, 2005 My plan is to get drunk, very drunk...........I might have a party at my house, haven't decided yet.
Illinoismom Posted November 29, 2005 Posted November 29, 2005 We have always stayed home, too many weirdo's out that night, We play games and chill with the kids
Spooot Posted November 29, 2005 Posted November 29, 2005 Plan on staying home same as every year, I prefer to not be out with the drinkers since we don't drink. Did enough of that in my younger days. Stay in, watch tv and hope we can stay awake long enough to watch the ball drop. *LOL*
CG480 Posted November 29, 2005 Posted November 29, 2005 I get to work on New years eve and day. I know my bosses wife if going to want him off of work and we got to cater to that women.
erh12275 Posted November 29, 2005 Posted November 29, 2005 We are having a party(provided dh don't work)...our first ever. So any suggestions on what to serve would be great.
carone0318 Posted November 29, 2005 Posted November 29, 2005 We'll either go to our best friends house or they will come to ours. We all have small kids, so that is the easiest thing to do. We eat really good that night and might drink some. My oldest - dd (9) - she will go spend the night at her gymnastics club, she has the best time, but I have to be there to pick her up by 8am (yikes ) so not too much drinking on my end!
hope1976 Posted November 29, 2005 Posted November 29, 2005 Haven't even talked about it, but I'm sure we're staying home. We have 3 kids (7,4,1) and it's hard to find a babysitter LOL. MIL has to work until 11, so it doesn't really pay for her to come over here at 11:30pm for us to go out for an hour - especially when we don't drink. We don't hang around a lot of groups of friends as we live in a small town with too much drama, so we keep to ourselves. We've never had the kids stay up that late, but maybe this year we'll have a little party at home with the kids - never thought of that
ajburlingame Posted November 29, 2005 Posted November 29, 2005 I will be doing the same thing that I have done for the past 11 years. We will be going to a card party at my parents. It is always lots of fun and is kid friendly!!
phatferd Posted November 29, 2005 Posted November 29, 2005 Sleeping! I am moving from Orange County, California to Phoenix on January 1st. I have to be on the road by 5:00am on the 1st, so I plan to be asleep early on the 31st. Going to college!
msomnipotent Posted November 29, 2005 Posted November 29, 2005 We always stay home, just like the pair of old farts that we are. It's much easier to get drunk that way!
copados1993 Posted November 30, 2005 Posted November 30, 2005 We won't be doing anything this year, only because I'm having surgery on the 27th to have my tonsils taken out. So sorry for you!!!!!!!!! I had mine taken out last winter and let me tell you that was the worst pain I've ever been in before!!! I made out fine for the first 48 hours after the surgery and after that it was all way down hill. Best of luck to you!!!!!!!!!!!
treasure60 Posted November 30, 2005 Posted November 30, 2005 As of yet, we haven't made any plans but as it gets closer I am sure we will be going out to do something with friends that evening.
ReillyCheyenne Posted November 30, 2005 Posted November 30, 2005 I will be going out of town to Ohio to bf's family so they can meet our daughter for the first time.
mommie75 Posted December 1, 2005 Posted December 1, 2005 yes we are having x mas with my mother.... fun fun i know but that is when it worked for her to make trip down here since this year is her turn to come here, next year we go there but a usally home for new years and just have friends over
missyjane Posted December 1, 2005 Posted December 1, 2005 I don't have any definite plans yet...but I got a really great deal on Black Friday for my outfit so I'm ready!
catzone2001 Posted December 1, 2005 Posted December 1, 2005 I am planning going to our downtown celebation in our city. Or maybe stay at home and watch the ball drop.
SuperMommy Posted December 1, 2005 Posted December 1, 2005 I will usually go to friends houses (not really a "party" but a get together). Nothing wild so it's something I take DD to. As do other parents. But I definately won't be having any drinks this year. I usually do and DH watches DD for me since I take care of her all year long. But since I'm preggo I'll be sticking to Dr. Pepper this year.
elena_398 Posted December 1, 2005 Posted December 1, 2005 My family has been invited to a neighbors house for a party. Kids are invited to sleep over so parents can indulge. I don't drink so I think I'll let me husband have some fun and go home with the kids. Neighbor is next door so it won't be long to come home!
