Murder Mystery Dinner Train

This weekend was such a big event filled weekend that it deserves two separate posts!

Friday night after work, we drove to Detroit and stayed the night with Phil’s brother Robbie and sister-in-law Rachel and of course the infamous Baby Robbie. Saturday morning we went out to breakfast and then I left Phil and Tula at Robbie’s and made my way to my friend Jess’ house up in Pontiac.

Saturday my friend Traci also came over to Pontiac from Kzoo and we spent the day picking up our race packets from downtown Detroit, checking out a potential house Jess wants to buy and then to Chandra’s to pick her up for the big event (and of course see baby Jayda… who you all remember from the infamous birth post a few months ago).

Once we had Chandra, we drove down to Blissfield to do a surprise Murder Mystery Dinner Train for Jess’ birthday. She had no idea what we were doing for her, but somehow once we got about a mile down the road she totally guessed what we were doing!!! We all were dead silent… we didn’t know how the heck she figured it out… lucky guess.

Anyways the dinner train was awesome, it was so funny. The basic idea was that it was an improve group doing a skit about crop circles and their characters were all from another planet, then they killed on of the passengers and we had to figure out who did it, all while we were eating a fabulous dinner and getting Jess to drink lots of wine.

There was an open seat right next to us so the characters kept sitting by us and talking to us and making jokes. One of the characters even talked to Chandra’s baby sitter on the phone… it was very funny!

Here are some good pictures from the night:

Baby Jayda & Jess... isn't she getting so big and look at all that hair.

Chandra & my favorite of the characters... she sang it's raining men & rubbed herself on all the guys.
