New Year's Eve PartiesWhether you plan a huge holiday party, or a quiet evening at home, you'll probably follow some family holiday customs.Parties are probably the number one way people bring in the happy new year, with party planning starting long before Christmas.Traditionally, New York's Time Square has a huge annual New Year's celebration. The first celebration there took placein 1904 and the notorious 'dropping of the ball' became a tradition shortly after that, in 1909.The famous ball begins dropping at 11:59 pm and has completed the descent at 12:00 midnight, the new year. Bells ring,confetti and streamers fly, as everyone happily rings in the new year. You can distinctly hear 'Auld Lang Syne' over thecheering and applause.This event is always televised, so if you're a little more laid back, watching it on TV might be just the thing for you.Or, do what many other people do, watch movies or football with a bowl of popcorn and have a toast at midnight. Don't forgetto kiss that special person in your life. If you plan on going to a movie or play, get your tickets well in advance and getthere early.
