Celebrate, as in to observe with ceremony, to keep with some element of festivity, and to notice, savor, and revere.
Celebrate is often associated with high energy and parties. The word tends to have a prom dress draw--toward eye catching flounce, general bigness, and bling.

Love this! The camera is such a great tool to really SEE what's around you. Loving the closeups too, showing the details.
