Thankful Thursday #41

I am so thankful for so many things everyday.

It finally feels like Spring here and the sun is out.  I have been very busy.  I have a festival this weekend and I am trying to get everything ready.

I love festivals.  It reminds me of carnivals, county fairs, and anything of that nature.  Fun games, sometimes rides, and there is always some kind of magic.

I am thankful for magic.  I think we all need that feeling of mystery and wonder.  I love a good card trick.  My dad has one that is so good.  It's a long story and the way the cards go along with it is amazing.  I need to get a video of him doing it.  When I do, I will have to post it.  It is the best trick.

I saw on the news about David Copperfield having to reveal his secret to a trick he has performed for years.  I know someone got hurt and I don't know the details enough to even have an opinion on it, but it does make me sad he has to give it away.

My family, and I mean family consisting of aunts uncles and cousins and grandparents, went to Las Vegas a few times.  On one of our trips, I was around 17 and we got tickets to see David Copperfield.  A few of us got there early to get seats and a young guy came to our table and asked if I wanted to be in the show.  That was a no brainer!

Copperfield asked a question in the audience and when I raised my hand like I was told to do, he picked me and I was given just a couple of simple instructions for on stage.  He levitated me. I have no idea how he did it.  It is a little bit of a blur.  I always said he hypnotized me with his gorgeous brown eyes!  After the show, everyone wanted to know how he did it, but I was just as amazed at everyone else.  And, I got to go home saying I was in a Las Vegas show!

I might need David Copperfield to help me finish getting ready for Saturday.  I have a lot of things ready, I just always feel like I need to have more.  I am excited about the new earrings and necklace cards I got.

I will post pictures after the festival Saturday!

Also, speaking of magic and things, I am working on a store here.  The computer is a big mystery to me, kind of like a magic trick, but slowly I am getting better at it!

I also have two new charms coming in!  One design will be perfect for summer nights and the other is really "groovy."  You will soon see what I mean!
