I must admit the theme was picked before the book on this one! We knew we wanted Wild West dress code and for the book to center around a group of woman. We searched and searched for the perfect fit and Buffalo Girls came out the winner. I think everyone enjoyed this story. The story is real people but not real stories. We enjoyed researching what was true or false. The host created a realistic saloon with swinging doors and signs. She covered the walls with old photographs of the characters in the book. Jen brought a stuffed Beaver on loan from a friend! Read the book and you will get it! It was part entertainment for the night and made for many photo ops! It was HUGE! Adorable favor bags were given to each guest with a mini Jack and Coke, old fashioned candy, Zucchini bread in a mason jar and homemade bath bombs!
The host also had wanted posters made for each member with crazy names and photos! They were funny and hilarious to find mixed in with the old images. We asked a few folks to trap us a Beaver for dinner but we were not so lucky! Plan in advance if you decide to read this book. You need more than a week to get Beaver on the menu!
