13 Traditions To Ring In The New Year in WA, OR, CA!
When I was younger, and I mean, really young, like 10 or 11, my New Years tradition was setting the microwave timer to go off at the same time Dick Clark dropped the Big Apple in New York! What can I say, I was young, dumb, and adorable.
Now it seems like my New Year's Eve traditions are hanging out at home with my wife and our little dog. We usually kick back with pizza and a movie (or play Trivia Murder Party).
Finishing them both up at around 10 pm, realize that we're both tired and going to bed around 10:30. Oh, the joys of being married.
So besides the normal traditions of partying it up at the club and trying to get a kiss at midnight, there are more practices around the New Year celebration than I realized. Check out our list.
