FBI: Missing Point Shoes 3.22.09

Happy Birthday Abby!
For Abby's 12th birthday, Tim, Darlene, and I set up the entire house like a 200 year-old abandoned Ballet School.  Each kid was an FBI agent, and they had to solve the case of the missing golden point shoes worth 11 million euro.
I have to say that Tim and Darlene are quiet creative.  The kids had a blast!
Supply table in the briefing room.
We made a film of Tim as news anchor for BBB (Ballet British Broadcasting, I think).
Before the agents arrived.  Little did they know that they were all suspects of the crime.
The old ballet office full of dust and cobwebs.  Each kid had to find 3 stars in the dust on in the webs with a black light pen.  It was very dark with old ballet music playing in the background.
Blindfold maze.  There were 3 teams of 3.  Each team had to guide eachother through the maze...over, around, under chairs...
Authorized FBI only.
FBI Mobile Investigation Unit.
Our Nine Top Agents.
Agent Darlene briefs the teams on their mission.  The first team to collect all the clues won some sweet treats, then all the teams solved a magic square to then release the riddle of where the point shoes were hidden.  My team won!!!  Go blue team!
The Golden Point Shoes are returned to the great, great granddaughter of the famous prima ballerina, Abigail LeGrande.
Happy Birthday to you!!!
12 years old...wow!  I told Darlene that I'm going to use all her ideas for my kids one day.  Way better than your average birthday party.
A successful mission agents.
Agent Emma.
Agents Tim, Darlene, and Lindsey
Don't you love Tim's slick hair?  We all got so into it.  The whole night we were in character.
If you ever need help solving a crime, you know who to call...
