Sunny, this post is for you. I apologize deeply for letting those pictures just sit there. Mostly, I despise my scanner and I wanted higher quality, but I finally opted for just getting it done. So that said, let us delve into what was a night of mystery, suspense, and leopard print...
...November 21, 2008
It was a cold night when Georgia (me—complete with southern accent) invited her guests to her gallery show. We pause here to mention how utterly cool Provo Art Services was for letting us borrow almost all their art for one evening. They are by far my favorite people for framing and the like.
Those attending included the Archeologist and Comedian/Crazy Bird Lady,
the Heiress and Sportscaster,
the Psychiatrist and Congresswoman,
the Entomologist and Alien Baby (she thinks her Dad is an alien),
the Big Game Hunter and the Multi-Level Marketer,
the Photographer and Hostess (um, I was actually Nancy Drew here, but I'll explain that later),
the Actress and Mystery Writer (not pictured),
the Second-hand Lawyer and the Fortune Teller,
and of course, the Fabulous Cat Lady (too bad her Kung Fu husband was home with a sick kid).
Sunny was freaking hilarious. The picture just doesn't do her justice. She was in everyone's face and so animated (you have looked into local theater, right Sunny?). I am including this picture just so you can see her fabulous tights (I am a little jealous of the whole ensemble).
We had a good time chatting and accusing people of past deeds. Eventually someone went too far and killed the poor Fortune Teller.
(This is where I change costumes and reenter as Nancy Drew to solve the case). I can honestly say that I was stumped on this case for a few moments—mainly because I had told her to put the spider in her sock and when I arrived at the scene, she wasn't wearing socks. After much investigation, I did find the bugger though.
I'm not sure if we ever really put the blame on someone, but the evening was not wasted. The company was good as was the food. And like I said, it was all worth it just to see Sunny in character (especially with those teeth).
I did come away with one telling clue from the evening. I was definitely meant to be a brunette. Here I am as the Hostess, and then Nancy Drew.
Although, I may audition for the next Twilight movie...put me in black hair and my skin practically shines, I am THAT white.
How fun!! It is so interesting to see how everyone did the parts at your party and how they dressed compare to ours. It's too bad the Kung Fu Master couldn't come. He was the favorite at our party when he showed all his moves!
ReplyDeleteOther favorite characters at ours(and the people who really got into them) were the heiress, preacher, fortune teller, and lawyer. And we had issues with the spider at the end too, but ultimately, that's not what it is all about. It's all the fun! Glad to see you guys had a great time!
First let me say that I am totally baffled as I have never been involved in a 'mystery' party. Secondly I think that you and your husband have far too much fun and far too many friends. It makes me feel like Dad and I live a hermit's life. I don't think you and Miranda could be more different! Thank you for letting us vicariously enjoy the fun.
ReplyDeleteyeah!!! I was just thinking about this fun little event!!! Love the pictures!!!! And I agree Sunny was amazing!!!
ReplyDeleteThat sounds and looks like it was great fun! We've never been a part of a mystery party, but it looks like fun!
ReplyDeleteI wish we could do it again!! I've tried to get my cat-lady giggle back and I can't make it work, I guess I really was in character. Thanks for the fun!!
