Stay healthy. Get plenty of physical and mental exercise.
Keep your marriage happy and strong.
Spend time with your family. Hold them close. Celebrate at every chance.

Take your time.

Read up on managing income in retirement. Make sure you are invested at a risk-appropriate level for your age. Understand your investments, and don't get ripped off by management fees and loaded funds.
Make a spending plan (aka budget) and use it. Change as needed, but spend your money with purpose. (My guess is you've already been doing this, given your financial situation.)
And ENJOY YOURSELVES! Congratulations!
