How to Host a Murder

I picked up a "How to Host a Murder" game at Salvation Army when I was in college, and it has followed me through way too many moves now waiting to be an awesome date night. I vowed that we would not move it one more time, so we planned what turned out to be a super fun evening with some of our best friends in Hawaii on our last Saturday before the move.

The setting for the evening was a 1950's cafe, where a group of friends had gathered after their 5 year class reunion. The participants were all assigned their roles before the party, and some of us had quite a bit of fun dressing up for the occasion.
 Of course, the joyful reunion was soured when we discovered that one of our friends had been murdered. As the evening continued and the evidence came out, it looked like just about all of us could be guilty of the crime.
 Kelson & I as Penny Loafer and Rick Calcitrant. Yep, I was a murderer.
 Jessica & Andrew as E.C. Leigh and Cal Q. Layder, guest starring Loren. Cal was my accomplice.
 Alishia and Zach as the Del Toydes & DeeDee Deucer. Caroline was a spectator.
Chris and Rachel as Joe K. Awledge and Pris Teene. Joe was guilty too.

We ate hamburgers and fries with root beer floats and had fun getting into character and ferreting out the killers. We are so lucky to have such great friends!
