Last night we went to the Magic Show in Pigeon Forge. This was the third year we've been. I love Sevier County discount days. It was Grandma, Aunt Kim, Emily, Anthony, Carysa and me. On the way there Emily was getting a little fussy. I said "Don't worry Emily, we won't take Carysa home." Then she said "Good" so we all had a good laugh. Emily was a handful, lucky for me, Grandma held her almost the entire time. She seemed like she paid attention to some of it but mostly she played. Johnny had given us some coupons for his work, so the kids gave them out before the show. Anthony's a little sales man. He wasn't shy at all. He went up to complete strangers and asked if they wanted free coupons, of course he was holding them backwards so people were a little confused since they couldn't tell what they were for. One lady thought he was just showing them to her. I said no, "His father works there, he wants to give them to you." She was so happy, she gave him $2 and told him to buy himself something. Then Carysa said she wanted to give out the last one and she wanted to give it to the same lady. I had to tell her the lady wasn't going to give them more money. The kids were real disappointed that with their earnings they didn't have enough money to buy anything in the gift shop. They both wanted the magical rope that they could walk their invisable dog with. We had a great time. My favorite part was watching Carysa. We had all been before (except Carysa and Emily) and she watched the whole show with her jaw dropped. I couldn't believe it that when the lights came on she was sound asleep, she missed the ending with the tiger, and that was the part she couldn't wait to see.
