The Ohio State Fair

A few weeks ago, the family & I drove out to Columbus to go to the Ohio State Fair. Having never been to a State Fair, we weren't really sure what to expect. There were of course all the standards of rides, carnival food, and crowds, but also agriculture displays, art displays (that somehow we missed!) and lots of different performers and commercial displays. It ended up being a long day but also a lot of fun.

It was also the first time that Miss A actually enjoyed a carnival ride! (I still need to post our photos from Miss A's first attempt at a carousel...)

Rain Rain Go Away

Today our afternoon plans were washed away by a large thunderstorm that rolled through, but as a result I captured a photo of Miss A that is a new favorite of mine.

Rain Rain Go Away

Maybe the rain wasn't so bad...I think I might have to get this printed on a canvas for the living room!
