Happy New Year!!!!!

Splashy Fun: The Big New Year's Eve Bashes

If ever a holiday needed a comforting arm around its shoulders and a steaming cup of lemon tea, it's New Year's Eve.

Not simply because it is the occasion on which people are said to famously overindulge. Rather, the night takes some knocks. Lots of knocks. Have you heard someone say, over the past week, "I'm not into New Year's -- there's too much build-up and pressure to have fun?"

Was that person you?

Yeah, we've all had the uncelebratory Dec. 31, the one where we were stuck in a corner while wearing a pointy paper hat as we got chatted up by some acquaintance we felt only so-so about.

But here's a thought: What if you put more care into choosing the corner you get stuck in on New Year's Eve? What if, in fact, you chose a splashy party that was all about fireworks or art or music and not about the same ol' deal you've tried before?

Going big on New Year's Eve, at least once, has a high chance of being a hoot. Give it a whirl? There are several places around So Cal that'll do the whole spectacle thing, including...

Grand Park: This one has the cool 'n new factor, if only because Grand Park remains so dang cool 'n new. It's called NYE LA, there shall be art installations, there shall be food trucks, there shall be face painting, and it shall be free. Oh, and we didn't even mention the 22-story 3D projections on City Hall. There'll be 22-story 3D projections on City Hall. Go big in 2014, we think is the message here.

Queen Mary: So this is an idea whose time has come, settled in, and will stay, we hope. LBC's big boat is throwing a dress-up NYE "voyage" of sorts. Various parts of the ship'll recall the exotic ports where the boat once stopped fifty or sixty years ago. Neato? Totally. There are stay over packages, too, in case you want to bed down on the boat for the night.

Universal City Walk: If you haven't yet greeted the next year standing under a rain of "thousands of pounds of confetti," this is the moment you finally take that partyriffic path. Music, fireworks, and all the club-and-restaurant scene of the hilltop destination'll be in full flower. The price? This is interesting. Think drive-in movie theater: General admission is $75 a car, which includes the City Walk party and parking. It's $30 an adult without parking, and there's a VIP deal, too.

Thoroughbred Christmas Street Lights

The lights on Thoroughbred are almost like a mini theme park. Almost every house from the corner of Sapphire and Thoroughbred up to Turquoise and back down Jennet is covered in lights. Each house has a unique theme, from religious to winter wonderland to Christmas movies. Some are interactive or have moving parts, and others are just to gaze at in wonder of how much the electricity bill must cost. There are police hired to direct traffic on the weekends and even a mini trash truck that comes around to collect the bags from the trash bins in front of each house. Many families have started selling food to take advantage of the high volume of visitors. They have hot cocoa, churros, nachos, funnel cakes, and tamales, just to name a few, so you might want to bring some cash for a snack along your walk.

The neighborhood is north of the 210 Freeway, off Sapphire Street in Alta Loma. The lights on Thoroughbred Street will stay up until Christmas.

West Coast's largest animated drive-thru holiday light show

From Thanksgiving to New Years you can visit the Del Mar Racetrack and purchase a $15 dollar ticket for a mile and a half drive through the West Coast’s largest animated drive-thru light show. Holiday of Lights website describes the even as More than 400 twinkling, lively displays located around the Del Mar Racetrack will delight your family and make it your holiday tradition. Here is a video of the event.

Are you facing foreclosure? Let us help!

If you are facing foreclosure and can no longer afford your home, you may qualify for a Short Sale—even if you don’t think you can (or haven’t been able to) sell your home. A Short Sale, also known as a pre-foreclosure sale, is when you sell your home for less than the balance remaining on your mortgage. If your mortgage company agrees to a Short Sale, you can sell your home and pay off all (or a portion of) your mortgage balance with the proceeds.

A Short Sale is an alternative to foreclosure and may be an option if:

• You are ineligible to refinance or modify your mortgage
• You are facing a long-term hardship
• You are behind on your mortgage payments
• You owe more on your home than it’s worth
• You have not been able to sell your home at a price that covers what you still owe on your mortgage
• You can no longer afford your home and are ready or need to leave
