What a way to bring in the New Year. A bon fire, a party garage, plenty of delicious food and drink, fireworks and karaoke and girls with sparkles plus a couple of labs walking around and voila!!! A great New Year's Eve party on Axe Lake.
It was a bit tricky getting into the lake with all the snow and ice we have had lately. The road was in pretty good condition but the day before, a few people were stuck. It was the branches hanging down over the road in that were the issue. Poor Ron's truck was getting a good scraping on the roof. I was a passenger which made me not the designated driver so I could indulge in more than one small drink. I actually had a couple of cocktails and a beer at the party plus a couple of shots of Fireball - my favourite!! Nice to not have to worry about the drive home. Davey always brings ribs from Windsor on New Years and cooks them outside over a nice hot fire. They were delicious. there was chicken fried rice, ribs and sausages, lasagna, chili and meatballs. Plenty of salads and of course my devised eggs which went very fast. added bacon bits to one tray and they were a hit. Poor Nat never got any. She hasn't had one of my eggs in years so I will make her a personal plate next time there is a party. The deserts were pretty good too. There were fireworks later in the evening over the lake and then time for karaoke!! Joy did an amazing rendition of Tina Turner's Private Dancer. I really enjoyed that. I never got the memo that a lot of the girls dressed up in sparkles and high heels. I was in my usual jeans and a turtleneck. Brent in his sequined silver tie got the dancing going. It was a wild evening for sure.
ps - we left at about 10:30 and I was home in bed by 11pm. But I did wake up and glance at the clock at 12:07 and wished myself Happy New Year!!
