So Friday we hosted a murder mystery dinner and let me just tell you it was so fun!! If you have never done one before let me just explain the gist of it. You hand out invitations to everyone and with the invites you assign each person a character which tells them how to dress and who they are. Everyone arrives that night and completes a set of objectives for their character, then someone "dies". After that person dies, everyone is given another set of objectives and who they should be suspicious of and why as they are trying to figure out who the "murderer" is. After the investigation is over everyone looks at the evidence and casts their vote on who the killer is. Let me just tell you, it was a hit. It was so much fun and everyone got so into their character. I am glad we had such a good turn out. We had a fantastic dinner thanks to my GREAT friend Becca who helped me do everything, complete with margaritas and all (virgin of course). Thank you everyone who came and participated, we had a blast and are glad we got to know each of you better... Here are all the couple and their characters....
