NYE was...

Old faces and new. Friendly magpies. Interesting convos. Eight players on the "Jackbox" trivia/bluffing/drawing, etc. videogame (along with audience quasi-players). Rich food. Too much beer and wine. Six of us testing out the "Let's Hit Each Other With Fake Swords" not-exactly-a-boardgame. Watching distant fireworks from the top of a hill. Big sparklers. Little sparklers. Triggered memories. Reminiscing. Plenty of laughs.

Added a day later:

Forgot to mention the toasts. We didn't sing "Auld Lang Syne", although I briefly heard it being sung in the distance.
