MYSTERY DINNER

Finally! Mike and I had the opportunity to attend a mystery dinner. Mike and I were practicing our characters around the house a week before it started. (That's how excited we were!)

I was assigned to be Malissa A.K.A. Scoop. If you can't tell by the picture, I am supposed to be a news reporter. I got my nickname because I'm the best. I'm really good at finding out information and getting people to talk. Mike went as Ernie; a young rich stock broker.

Fortunately, we were NOT the murderers although we both wanted Hal Cappone DEAD!

We had such a good dinner mixed with card playing and gambling (Ernie's favorite past time.)

Thanks Dale and Sonnet for hosting!

A fun project

I picked out some nursery bedding for my little boy's crib. I wanted to have some things to decorate but didn't want to spend the money on it. So, I decided to paint my own pictures that would match.

I'm quite proud of these paintings since I don't have much artistic ability. Also, I've never used oil paints before. For me, this is quite an accomplishment.
