Anything with an eve and a day risks some degree of boredom. I think You need To choose which day to live it up. For us Christmas Eve and New Year’s Day are the big days, while Christmas Day and New Year’s Eve are more low key. 

What about Easter:

 

Święconka

Ever get your baskets blessed on Holy Saturday?  Very loooow key.  Unless your one of the lucky ones and your parish throws in & does the "blessing of the pets."  Always gets interesting when my defiantly independent wife decides to bring the cats to hang out with the sea of dogs... Then the party starts jumping! :D

 

Easter has to be the most low key. Especially Good Friday between Noon & 3pm... My mother would cover up all the mirrors in the house and you'd have to pray for three solid hours on Good Friday.

 

Heck, all of Holy Week is low key! Eve upon eve with a betrayal & denial.... How depressing could a week get!

Easter, springtime..that works for the OP.  All he is worried about is his personal gratification.

You wouldn't happen to have a sister named Carrie, would you?
