Mystery in the Library!!
The Murder Mystery turned out amazing, as I said in the previous post. Here is the synopsis:
The Crime
The other night in the library, while many characters were out of their books and enjoying their nightly sojourn, a grim crime was committed right in our own library. As a result, his Majesty Henry VIII –yes, that famous monarch from the English history books – has disappeared. Gathered are the characters that were present in the library at the time of this nefarious deed. Fortunately Master Sherlock Holmes and his trusty companion Dr. Watson are here to investigate. The perpetrator of this heinous crime will be revealed as the night proceeds.

Dacia and I were in charge of it, so we were the librarians. We were in charge of rounding everyone up so that we could figure out why King Henry had disappeared from the library.
I was Miss Belle and she was Miss Liddell. It was quite fun.
As I said before, we held it in the Southern Utah University Library after hours which was absolutely incredible and soooo much fun! We had the entire library to ourselves but we stuck to the second floor. And held it in the big window room.
And here are some of the pictures from the Murder Mystery. I took 298ish so they aren't all going to be in here, as much as I would love that. Sorry, I am too lazy. It takes awhile to upload photos. I was also too lazy to really organize them, so I just plopped them in here.

Anyways, you get the gist. Do you want to know how it ended? Well, it turns out that Cinderella got rid of Henry by burning the books he was in. She stole Shelocks lighter and came out of her book early to burn the books. Not surprisingly, she was welcomed more as a heroine than a killer. Not many people liked King Henry.

After the mystery had been solved, I got everyone together and took group pictures.
I had so much fun and I am so glad we were able to pull this off in an actual library!
Murder mystery dinner in costume in the library after hours? Does life get any better than that? I sumbit that it cannot! I really do miss you! What are you doing for the summertime? Are we going to play? Yeah, Jana broke up with Tyler last week. I heard about it because Heather e-mailed me, and then I called Jana about it. Her number's 885-8034. I guess she is doing okay...but I feel bad I'm not there to hang out with her! I need to call you sometime...
