We just returned from Lake Tahoe- it was a great trip, but I'm glad to be back in sunny, warm SoCal! We're just planning to relax at home this year- no plans tonight. What are your plans for New Year's Eve/ New Year's Day? Happy New Year, everyone!

Happy New Year! May 2014 be a nice, mellow year of happiness, health, and joy! Great art montage.

seconded! happy New Year one and all!! (25 minutes and counting!)

Happy New Year to all! (I agree with CW--what a great graphic!)

I still have several hours to go...let us know how the new year is, KT! *grin*

Should old acquaintance be forgot, and never brought to mind ? Should old acquaintance be forgot, and old lang syne ? CHORUS: For auld lang syne, my dear, for auld lang syne, we'll take a cup of kindness yet, for auld lang syne.

Happy New Year everyone! I hope this upcoming year will bring (beside the usual health & happiness) even more inspiration and creative undertakings for everyone so we all have something to read and look at. As for my plans, I've spent the evening playing scrabble with my mom and her boyfriend (I won), drinking mulled wine and at midnight Russian sparkling wine, and then firing a great big heap of fireworks.

I hope everyone has a great new year! We're still almost 6 hours away form it. We're planning to just veg out and watch movies.

You sound spoiled by So Cal already, Springie! Happy New Year to everyone!

Happy New Year everyone! May 2014 bring the best of everything for all !

Yes, I am, Becky! After being in the cold and snow for a week, I really appreciate the warmth! Victoria, I'm with you in hoping for lots of creativity this year! I wish that one year we could all ring in the new year together in a very "Gatchy" way!

Happy New Year! No grand plans here. DH and at least one kid are already asleep. I'll be heading that way soon, too.

LOL ... I think I was one of the few, around here, who celebrated the New Year, first! When you opened this thread, Springie, I had only 7 minutes left for the countdown! Nothing special but nevertheless an evening which I bargain with nothing for me ... having spent the evening with my hubby and kids (the most important people in my life) watching movies and snuggling together! I'm now going to relax a bit after a day of cooking for my Dad and my In-laws! Many resolutions to try and uphold this year ..... !! Sending each and everyone of you, together with your families, endless wishes for the very best life could offer, hoping that waves of health, luck, prosperity and, most importantly, peace of mind, keep on flowing in throughout the whole year and even after! Lovely montage, Springie, and many thanks for the thought!

Happy New Year's Day, and a good 2014 to come, for all! I bar-hopped a bit last night, but was home before midnight this year.

Wishing everyone a Healthy Happy and Prosperous 2014!
