We have been celebrating the new year as a family tradition since childhood. Each year, we try to improve on what we did last. The truth is, we didn’t make it happen the past two years. We had great plans to ring in 2021 and 20,22, but they were thwarted by travel restrictions. Doh!
We’re doing something new this year and will be traveling further than usual to ring in 2019. I did, however, ring in 2020 at Key West and had a great time. We couldn’t resist the opportunity to find the best pow pow (snow) and hit the slopes in 2023. We’re ringing in NYE with “Travel”, which is the most popular way to do so.

Here are the Top 10
- Planning a Trip
Choose a destination at least 100 miles from you and go on an unplanned trip to somewhere new. - Enjoy Your Whole Day at the Spa
For me, this is tied for 1st because I love spa time. Book a facial, massage and don’t forget the sauna to get rid of all the nasty toxins that NYE brought. - Take a trip on an adventure
Go hiking, ski or do something else outdoors that is exhilarating. My favorite thing is to go kart racing together with friends. The driver with the fastest lap time wins the first round of drinks! - Watch the White Lotus on Netflix
Now is the best time to get started. After you’re done, book your Maul trip where many scenes were filmed. - Make Your Own Signature Cocktail For NYE
This is a holiday tradition that we love to do, but it was too busy so we moved it to NYE. - The Best of 2022
Our family tradition is to take down the highlights of the year and put them in a bowl. On New Year’s Day we open them all up and read them aloud. - Get Your Workout Resolutions Started Early
This is a NY tradition that dates back to the 1800s. However, I have to mention it because many of us put on extra weight during COVID. - Sparkling Wine & Sparkler Countdown
Champagne flutes filled up with Sparkling Wine or Champagne make for some great photos. Then, light some sparkler fireworks. Okay, outdoors. ! - Write to Your Futureself
Although it sounds strange, this is a great way to communicate with your future self. Are there any things you wish to remind yourself of (or warn yourself about) in the near future? There is no better time to set goals and establish milestones in your life than now.
