Murder Mystery...

December 29, 2012...We are so playful with one another, and that is my most favorite thing about us.  Tonight we laughed so much and I told you that I always want this in our life.  You said there is no reason why it can’t be there all the time.  My friends Brian and Maile Johnson put on a midevil Murder Mystery. 

You were Lord Henry (the host of the evening) and I was your daughter, Lady Felicity.  We had so much fun at this Murder Mystery!  We went out and rented outfits and they sent us these leather bound invitations that had all kinds of information in it.  It had a picture of each person that would be at the event and what your personal character's relationship was with each individual.  There was so much thought and detail that was put into the evening!  It was AMAZING!!!  At first it was a little uncomfortable because it took a little bit to get to know the others in the murder mystery and to get into character.  Once we got more into

character, it became a lot easier.  They would bring out a different course to our meal along with a note describing what we were to do during that round.  Sometimes there were a lot of facts, and you were supposed to tell the truth, but you could deceive and mislead all you wanted to.  I didn't like the deceiving part, but I thought it was just fun to be in character.  You did so well!!!  The food was really good and so professional.  This murder mystery was such a fun experience for both of us.  It was the first one that you and I had ever done before.  I absolutely love that you were willing to come with me.  I had hoped that you would, and when I asked you, you were actually kind of excited about it.  After the fun night tonight, you were so interested in knowing the rest of the plot, and what everyone’s packets said, so you could put all the pieces together.  I love that about you!  We really did have a good time together, and I think it is so cute that we do so many different things together.  Anyway…one of my favorite things about tonight is that I deceived you into thinking that I was the murderer.  You totally thought I did it, and when I said, “You fell into my trap!”  You said, “That is the second time I’ve fallen into your trap!”  I asked when the first time you fell into my trap

was, and you said, “When I started dating you!”  You are such a punk!  I don’t know how you do that…you are so quick at thinking and coming up with things to say like that right in the moment.  It is very impressive!  You are just super smart Babe!  We got home from the Murder Mystery and I was in the entry way of my downstairs.  You were closing the door and you turned around and looked at me and said in a very playful way with a cute little playful look on your face, “You better run!”  I instinctively panicked and started running up the stairs to realize there was NO WAY I could outrun you, so I stopped really quickly, turned around and sat on the stairs in a fetal position.  You started laughing sooooo hard!  You said that is what Helena used to do.  The funny thing is that it was just instinctive, it wasn’t something I thought through!  I just knew I would be caught and I would have rather been caught head on instead of surprised!  We have so much fun together!  Thank you for being so playful with me!!!
