A Little Magic Show

Lexie and Joseph put on a talent show for us today. They spent much of the morning getting it together and then waited and waited for Rick to get back from football so they could show it to us.
Here they are trying to convince Andrew that he doesn't need to show his own trick just be their volunteer for the whole show.

First trick, pulling paper from behind their necks.

Tada!

Eliza stole Rick's hat, but only for a bit. She's so cute in it.

The one & only volunteer. (I did volunteer but was never chosen. Bummer.)

Pull the string from the bag. There was a lot of it. And then a note at the end.

Nothing in the hat...

Wait, a note in the hat.

Andrew was amazed.

Fancy tricks with the ball.

Pulling paper from the blanket. It just keeps coming.

The "change the direction of the arrow" dominoes.

Eliza sitting on the ball. Pretty fancy.

Trying to jump rope with the crochet chain.

Then it was time to play outside. We had another gorgeous weekend of weather around here.
