New Year's Eve

After tearing up Denver on New Year's Eve last year, we decided to hang out at home, and have a few people up for a bit more relaxed party. It was a lot of fun, Jesse, Brittainy, Craig and Bonnie all came up to hang out and hit the hot tub on a frigid night. For dinner, we decided everyone would bring a favorite appetizer, and it quickly turned into an out of control feast! The kitchen was crazy-busy!

I had the FryDaddy working overtime making deep-fried pierogis for people;

Bring us more chicken wings Bonnie... and some ketchup too!

There was barely any room on the table for all the delicious food! We had chicken winds with two types of sauce, peanutbutter and jelly sandwiches (with the crust cut off) shrimp scampi, sauges links wrapped in bacon, stuffed mushrooms, deep fried pierogis, bread with dip, a bunch of other stuff, and of course, more than a few delicious alcoholic drinks.

After dinner, it was all of about 3 degrees outside, and the windchill was down to about 30 below! But we decided to brave it, and went out for a dip in the hot tub. I was wishing a few times that I had my snorkle with me, so I could have stayed completely in the water! Brittainy found a warm robe, and decided to play it safe indoors;

Yippee... made it through the New Year, and I think this is what most of the crew looked like by 12:36am
