No one expected the pandemic to be over once the clock struck midnight on December 31, 2020.
So, my husband and I did not have anyone over, and neither of us went out to party. One of my New Year’s traditions is to hang out with one of my good friends. Since we both wanted to stay safe, we had to find another way to celebrate.

If 2020 taught me anything, it was to start improvising. My friend and I could not party in person, but nothing was stopping us from bringing the NYE celebration to Animal Crossing New Horizons! We dressed our villagers up in party attire, watched the countdown, and enjoyed the virtual fireworks. Sure, it was not the same as hanging out in real life but it was fun and different, most importantly we did it together.
