Wild Wild West


You all know about our Murder Mystery Weekend in Mabel, MN,  complete with Bo spraying the hotel's fire extinguisher & our Amish visit.  But, here are a few pictures from our dinner.

Here was the vicitm:  Uncle Pete

My charater's name was Annie & my husband's character name was Bo!  SO we shared names with our kids for the night.

You can't really see my sister-in-law but she planned this whole weekend for us!  Hiubby's cousin Lisa here...she was the doc.

The kids had more fun than anyone!  They took solving the crime very seriously.

And of course Bo just shot us all, "Put your hands up!"


But the kids were pretty sure either my husband or I did it.  (He does look a little suspicous to me too actually.)

So...this is what I looked at all night..."Where were you when Uncle Pete died?"  "We know you did it."

And even though I had these guns about 3 inches from my face most of the night...

...I was innocent! 

And we had a wonderful night!  Thanks Tricia!

This looks like it was so much fun. We have one near us. I think we might need to give it a try.

What a great idea for a party including kids. Went to a couple of Murder Mystery parties, even hosted one but just for adults. I have to tell my son; they often have parties (halloween, Christmas.birthdays)that include theirs aged 12-14; thank you for sharing.

Looks like you guys had a lot of fun. Kelly does look pretty suspicious, I would say, "Where was Kelly when Uncle Pete died..." It was so nice of Karen and Paul to go to the game last night. Our girls were surprised they pulled off the win. That was a good team and a great game. Just ask Taylor about it on Sunday...

Hi Libbie!
So...Who killed Uncle Pete??? I think it's funny your kids thought it was you or your husband. I guess they must think you two are pretty shifty characters, Huh? Yeah you look like it:)...especially with those outfits. HaHa. It looks like you had fun and created another wonderful memory for your kids! You Rock, girlfriend!
Have a great day!
