last year (2008) we hosted a murder mystery party. we did another one in 2006, and it was so much fun..so we knew we had to do another one! we chose a high school reunion, class of 1985. who doesn't love the 80's?! the costumes alone made the party..as you will see! haha! i had put together the invitations, which had all of the details, along with a newsletter. when guests arrived that night, they were given a name tag, fake money and more details of their character.
ella modeled our picture spot as our fellow classmates arrived...(again, she was in bed by the time the party started..although she woke up midway and decided to join us! haha!)
