Murder Mystery Dinner

Brad and I hosted a Murder Mystery dinner a few weeks ago with some other couples...thanks to Kristie for providing the actual game! It was old school Chicago style - back in the days of prohibition and the characters were all pretty fun! I love the play-on-words they use to create the names for the characters. It was fun to dress up (thanks Kristie, or should I say Wayne? for the dresses!) and we hope to do another one soon!! Here are a few pics from the evening:

Ernie ("Bet a million") G. Ambler & Silky M. Adam

Eddie ("Socks") R. Gyle & Malissa F. Orrthot ("Scoop")

Anna Maria Carlotta Sassine ("Torchy") & S. Treighton Harrow

Molly M. Awbsterr & Billy ("the kid") Thrower

Don't we all look hot?? HA! I haven't worn a sequinned gown since my prom in 1996. Keep in mind, that was in Texas and fully beaded/sequinned gowns were cool, I promise! ;)
