it was Miss Scarlett...in the parlor....with a revolver!

We went aboard the Disorientated Express for a night of murder, mystery...and yummy soup in bread bowls. Jared's cousins got together for our monthly-dinner and played a fun murder mystery. It was really tricky to figure out who committed the murder; nobody got it until the end. We all had our suspicions, but were surprised in the end!

Look at all of these shady characters! I'm surprised we made it out alive...Jared was a German barber and I was a code breaker. Hill (a bank clerk) and Brennon (a fashion designer) hosted the event and decked their house out in mysterious decor (including a fog machine! Sweet!)...thank heavens, none of us were the murderers. Erin (lingerie shop owner) and Gregg (reporter), Kelsey (Maria Vontrapped) and Dewey (Russian inventor) all showed up in hilariously creepy outfits. I thought for sure Kelsey was the murderer, she seemed a little too innocent with her brown paper packages tied up in strings...but alas....she didn't do it.
Then there's Cade (Sigmund Froid), Abram (Chinese Photographer), Becca (a diamond trader) and Macey (can-can dancer) a.k.a "Macey the Murderer" as I will refer to her from now on. That's right, Macey did it, and with stockings too!! How could she.

Here's the mystery unraveling before your eyes:
It was a fun night! Thanks again Bakers!

Awesome! All the costumes are so clever! I glad it wasn't you or Jared, heavens knows we don't need any murderers in the family!

I have always wanted to go one of those parties, they seem so fun!
