Anyone doing anything fun for NYE?

Just curious what people are doing this NYE? I never know if I want to stay in or go out. I'm going out this year to a BYPA event. Not sure what the night will bring!

Re: Anyone doing anything fun for NYE?

  • I was just about to post this same question, but couldn't remember if we'd done it already :)  What's BYPA?

    We're going to be in Chicago because I'm a BM in a wedding on 1/2.  No actual plans for NYE right now, I've just kept the calendar open in case the bride needs help with something.

    I'd rather be rock climbing or playing volleyball

  • DH and I are going to Montreal for two nights. I've never been so I'm wicked excited! I just hope that the weather cooperates. I don't mind too much the cold, it's the snow that would be a problem.
  • BYPA is the Boston Young Professionals Association. They have events for people age 40 and under. A lot of networking, sporting, mingling type events. It's a good mix of people and not totally geared towards singles which I like! Here's their website: www.bostonypa.com

     

  • DH is working overnight NYE, so I'm having a couple girl friends over. We're going to have appetizers and champagne, discuss our 101 Things lists, and make dream boards. I think it will be a lot of fun to relax and have some girl time. After last year's snow storm, I didn't feel like going out this year. Plus it will help save some money!

    Ah, that's what I thought but wasn't sure.  I've never spent much time checking them out, but I'll take a look at the link.

  • I am working 7-3 on NYE and 7-3 on NYD so we are going to have a few friends over nothing out of control.

    What a great idea! I'm having a girls night Jan 8th and I may steal this!

  • I don't think we're doing anything. Some of my friends from HS go into Boston for First Night, but it is just too cold for us. I always want to do something fun, but nothing really materializes.

  • My brother and his gf are coming over for dinner. We're doing cheese fondue, raclette, then chocolate fondue for dessert. Then we'll head over to my parents house for midnight. They have a hot tub, and their friends are coming over with their new puppy!

    This is a great idea! I loooove Montreal. Have fun!

     We're staying local, a friend of ours is hosting. We'll be sharing home made wine and champagne and every one is bringing a different dish for dinner. It'll be a lot of fun. I kind of hope it snows :)

    Montreal sounds wonderful, we've never been but want to go sometime this year.  Let us know how it is.

    We were thinking of going to Top of the Hub, we've never been before, has anyone else gone? Or maybe No. 9 Park St?  We've never been to either.

    I would recommend No. 9 Park over Top of the Hub.  Granted it's been many, many years (over 10) since I've been to the Hub but both times I've been in the past we had horrible service and I refuse to ever go back.  No. 9 Park on the other hand was fantastic in terms of both food and service.  If you go, definitely have the prune stuffed gnocchi appetizer--so good!

    I'd be happy to give a report! And if you want to book at either of those restaurants, I suggest booking now (if they still have availability). They are wicked popular and I'm sure they will be for the holiday's too. No. 9 Park is an amazing restaurant. I've been to one of her other restaurants (Sportello). I'd be happy to help you with a reservation (i'm a hotel concierge in the city, i have a few connections. :-) )

  • I third No 9 Park.

    I have a lot of friends who work there so we always stop in on slower nights and enjoy delicious bites of this or that.

     

    And...by chance are you a relocated Buckeye from Ohio?

    I am! :)

  • We're going to an early dinner at Lumiere in Newton and then we'll probably hang at home.  We were invited to NH but we didn't want to make the drive since we were all over the place for Xmas.
  • We're staying in with a bottle of champagne, every time we try to go out and do something fun, it ends up being lame so we just gave up..

    I am as well! I grew up in southwest Ohio.  Are you a Buckeye fan?  I'm hoping for a win in the bowl game tomorrow!
