"Good afternoon, everyone. We are Angel the Great Magician, Ariel the Cute Magician and Asher the Handsome Magician!"
Haha, yup, this was how these three began the magic show which was one of the biggest highlights of the party. Seeing their happy smiles made all those hours of staying up to do the costumes and decorations worthwhile and it's this rewarding feeling that keeps me going party after party.
We kept things simple this time but added a personalised touch including a cake topper which says "The Magic is In You" and a photo of the trio, string decorations which the girls helped to put up, magic related standees like a bunny in a hat, poker cards and three figures to represent the three of them, DIY costumes and a stage backdrop. It probably took us less than two weeks in total to print, cut and stick everything and I was thankful for the extra hands in setting up. Yup, that's the good thing about having more kids!
We were also very thankful to have Ian of @truevinekidsmagic who hopped over to perform a 30-minute close-up magic show just for us. My kids were left in awe, the grandparents were bewildered and I was amazed that we still couldn't figure out how he did those magic tricks despite standing just one-metre in front of us. See my IG highlights.for the videos and stay tuned for more sharing on the blog too. I especially loved it when he made Thanos' infinity gauntlet appear on screen which then magically pulled out a poker card that we chose from a deck of cards. How did that happen??!
We ended off the party with a yummy steamboat followed by a cake cutting ceremony where we finished up every bit of the ice cream cake we bought. The kids continued playing and sharing more magic tricks with each other and we only called it a night past 10:30pm. Fwah, luckily it's the school holidays. Haha.
This is the last party of the year for us, other than Christmas gatherings, and I am just thankful that we pulled it off. December is really a time to celebrate, rejoice and cherish all the good things and loved ones around us. Love you, my dears! ❤
