We always stay home. Hubby says New Year's Eve is for amature's and it's not safe to be on the roads!!
My momma called me around 5 and said they were going out. I asked where and she said Doe's (famous steak house but horrible horrible part of town) with their best friends. When I told her that 4 "old folks" didn't need to be on the road in this weather and tonight of all nights---they all 4 thought that was real funny. I told her at her age she knew better than to be out tonight. . . . So not only was I worrying about Chandler and Lula Bell being out, but also my parents. (They were home at a reasonable hour so I'm gonna let them slide!!) Still sitting up waiting on the kids to come home tho. . . . I dread nights like these. |

Like many of you, we will be monitoring the horses all night. Last year the neighbors lit up the sky, fireworks and firecrackers. Kids hauling a$$ up and down our pasture/side road throughout the night. Hubby and I will probably watch movies until the noise settles. We're party poopers as well. ;)
Sounds exactly like our road and idiots |

        Location: CTX | Yes ma'am! We made it. Luckily our direct neighbors didn't start again at midnight. So at about 12.30 I decided to let them out in the pasture, since it seemed all quiet. Of course I had not counted on some other neighbors being in a differend timezone.... or their clocks were an hour late..... but they started at 1.00..... Luckily they are a bit farter away, but I still went out to check on the kids a couple of times. the dogs were still hiding, but the horses were just munching on their hay, and the 2 year old had streched out in the hay... lol.... he might be the youngest, but he was the coolest through the night.... So at around 2am everything was quiet and it was time for bed for me... (the hubby slept through all that.... ) ETA, and a happy New Year to all!!!

       Location: Florida | I stayed up for a change. At midnight I celebrated the death of 2016 and gave it the finger. Made me feel better for some reason. Let's hope 2017 is a better year for everyone. |

Thats funny how the husbands can sleep while we are up worring over our horses and us going out and checking on them threw out the night, I think I was more worried then the horses, every time I went out to check up on them they were like ok lady get the flashlight out of our faces please, lol.. But at least I knew they were ok.. But boy am I tired today... |

My kids got home around 3:30 so after a quick bath I finally got into bed around 4. NYE's aren't nearly as fun as they were 20 to 25 years ago! |
