Nothing planned for us. I usually make a fish dish for NYD. When we lived in Germany we watched fireworks on NYE. DS was a toddler when we lived there and always thought we arranged the fireworks for his Dec 31st birthday. When we returned to the states he wanted to know why we didn’t do the fireworks for him.

Nothing here. I usually do a prime rib or pork and kraut in the crock pot. We don’t even stay up any more to watch the ball drop.

I rarely stay up. DH usually stays up until the early hours but that's because he's comforting the dogs who do NOT like fireworks going off all night

I try to stay up til midnight. Sometimes I don't make it. Lol. I watch movies then switch over to see the ball drop. I also like to watch the Walleye drop. A town near me along Lake Erie has a huge walleye (a fish) and it dangles from a large stand, and slowly drops as midnight arrives. Out here they shoot off guns at midnight. Their own kind of fireworks. :)
