Magic!

While glancing through the Waverly newspapers during storytime at the library this morning I learned that there is a free summer concert series on Thursday nights at Kohlmann Park here in Waverly.  Tonight was kids' night.  Since Austin was out of town, I decided we'd eat an early supper and give it a shot.  We got to the park in plenty of time only to find out that because of the strong wind and an approaching storm system the whole thing had been moved to the high school.  So we packed up and went there.  I'm so glad we did!  Along with free popcorn and lemonade there was a magic act by Eric the Extraordinaire.  It was perfect because Emily & I had just read a book the night before that mentioned a magician pulling a rabbit out of a hat.  The last trick Eric did was turn a live dove into a live rabbit.  Emily was impressed!  Emily also enjoyed her balloon hat. :o)  The Greater Waverly Municipal Band performed afterwards in the school auditorium, but it was time to go home and take baths.  It will be fun to listen to the band sometime when they're at the park.
