Meet Anthony






Wow! We had a fun day. Columbus is forever having some festival or another. Today there were multiple festivals. I had originally wanted to go to the Greek festival because AJ had so much fun at that one last year, but Dave saw one advertised that had carnival rides. We bought a $15 wrist band for AJ and spent literally 6 hours letting AJ ride and play on everything he wanted. He had a blast. At the end of the night, we stayed to let AJ see the fireworks. There were a ton of carnival games, but we didn't spend any time there until Dave decided to try to win a stuffed animal for AJ. He was given 12 ping pong balls to aim for little fish bowls of water 15 feet away. There had to have been 100 or more fishbowls. Apparently, you only get a stuffed animal if you get the ball in one of the 99 clear fishbowls. If you get a ball in the green one in the center (which Dave accidentally did), then you win a bunny....a REAL bunny. So, we are now the not so proud owners of a baby bunny. AJ was SOOOO excited. Someone came up to him to see the bunny when he was holding it and asked him the bunny's name. He said he was going to name it Anthony.
