Murder Mystery Dinner

For Chad's 33rd birthday this year I sent him and friend Tom Vander Well up to Des Moines for a man spa day. They got massages and hand and foot details. I don't think they minded at all considering they were offered beer when they got there and got to go sit in the cigar room and enjoy a few puffs. For all the hard work Chad has put into our house - he certainly deserved some pampering to his battered hands and much neglected toes :)

After an afternoon of pampering we all donned our cowboy duds and headed to Tassel Ridge Winery for a fun evening participating in a Murder Mystery dinner while the boys played with Auntie Heather and Uncle Seth at our house :)

I particularly dig my big belt buckle.

When we got to Tassel Ridge we tasted some wine and waited for the hosts to come out. When they did it was hilarious! Everyone was given a card with the character they were to play for the evening. I was Sloopy Sales, Chad was Foe Ward Ho, Tom was Wyatt Burp, Wendy was Sarah Bellum, Dan was John Boy and Angela was Maggie May.

The hostess had a lot of fun making Dan blush!
Yowzers! She had a little toy gun attached to her garter belt - thankfully she pulled it out for him! Tom dressed the perfect part to play Wyatt BurpChad was entertaining as always!

Much to my surprise I was the murderer of the evening!!It was an awesome night! My face was still hurting the next morning from smiling and laughing so much. The night got even better when the Hawks pulled out a victory in the last second of the game. The room erupted in cheers and high-fives. We all headed back to our house where we watched the last few minutes of the game to view it for ourselves. A perfect ending to a great day for Wicky!
