Magic

Last year while in Las Vegas (where I ran my first half!) we went to see David Copperfield at MGM.

Blake was actually chosen to be part of the show where David made him disappear. Blake says he has no idea how it was done (he’s a filthy liar) but it was still really incredible to have someone we know be in the show. And immediately afterwards we were all transported into 8 year olds convinced we wanted to be magicians. (We definitely recommend the show if you’re going to Vegas any time soon!)

So, of course, we had to stop into a magic shop and browse. If you bought a trick (no, not that kind you perv) they would take you into the back room and show you how it is done. We couldn’t really justify buying something until we realized we could use Lillie as an excuse. She’d simply love a magic trick!

Well, when we came home she was not even close to be interested. But now that she’s a little older, we thought we’d try again. And yep, she loved it.

Sorry for the poor lighting and uh, the no editing, but you get the gist.

Matt and I had to do a timeshare tour because we ran out of food money on day 2 or 6. But with that, we got show tickets so Matt said we HAD to see Criss Angel and it was in our hotel, on the last night, so it worked out.

Except that it sucked balls. You could see all of the wires and people going up into the air, or running off the stage, it was horrible. Thank god we didn't pay for these tickets.

Oh my gosh, that is so freaking cute! Love it!

We saw Chris Angel? in Vegas. Meh. He was all about Chris Angel. I think David Copperfield would have been much better :)
