My personal tradition? Taking a lift to 11th floor of the block of flats and taking photos of fireworks exploding at midnight. The view is really nice...especially for someone who lives on the 2nd floor :))
Seriously, I usually spend New Year's Eve and New Year at home with my family, so nothing special here :P

Oh, is it a contest? :)) My ID number is 4579.

We don’t really have a tradition but we normally play card games and board games and eat food :)) 19225

My family tradition would be to horse show! Our biggest show of the year is December 29-January 3rd. No crazy parties for us. Lol. Sometimes we go to Boston market.

We always go for a trail ride with good friends as long as the roads are decent. There have been a few years when it snowed hard the night before so we'd be covered in it because it kept falling off the trees, lol. :) #14609

For most of the last 10 years I’ve worked lol we (the community complex that I work at) have a family New Year’s Eve party with face painting, clowns, magic shows, a family that sings and dances, inflatables, skating and a count down at 9.

Normally we cover the one ice pad with a Fiberglass floor to hold the festivities on and there was a big adult New Year’s Eve party on in the Hall. They haven’t booked for the last 2 years so we left both rinks clear and had hockey on the second one.

We usually work till 3am then go back in for a few hours New Year’s Day to lift the floor up off the ice and clean the building but since we didn’t put the floor down and there was only the kids party we were only scheduled until 11. Also a cold snap came through this year so there wasn’t as many kids out and my 2 coworkers had most of the building clean before we left.

Sitting at home I realized I had no idea how to ring in the new year as the staff normally joins in the count downs at 9&12.
