2013 O'Hara Jog-a-thon fundraiser - Solicitation warning!

Hi all,

Have some great pics and videos to post, which I hope to do this evening. I owe you! 

Last year, Avery reached her fundraising goal of $120.00 before school started, which entered her for a drawing for fabulous prizes. Unfortunately, she didn't win any prizes last year, but we'd like to try again this year! 

In 2012, on her little legs, Avery ran over two miles to raise money for her school! She is strapping on her running shoes again this year and hopes to set a new personal best - after all, she is at least one in taller! Please consider a Jog-a-thon pledge to support Avery's fundraising mission: 


Please state you are supporting Avery Owen - grade K. This year's JAT run is on Thursday, October 10th (looks like the website needs to be updated with new date). Please shoot me an email if you decide to support this year's effort so I can track toward our $120 commitment! 

Many thanks for your consideration. 

Best wishes,
The Owen Fam

Keane Loves Blueberries

That's our girl. Famous.

Who knew? A few months ago we went to our favorite burger joint, Dickie Jo's to celebrate the opening of their new Party Jo's location (the owner is an O'Hara school parent). We signed a release for photos and video. Who knew when we consumed some Fro Yo next door, Avery's would end up the size of a car on one of Eugene's main streets? 

Ha! She's famous! As you can see, we were a little surprised to see the billboard today -- no one told us! Thanks to Nanny Allie and BFF Nicole for telling us Avery was on a billboard. 

First riding lesson

First riding lesson today (7/29/2013)

Avery goes big girl style...!

What a milestone. Avery is tall enough for some adult rides. She loved the Scrambler. 

The upside-down Ferris Wheel did not receive rave reviews. A few tears in the end. We won't be doing that one again. Sorry for the dizzy filming and obnoxious audio, I was not quite ready for this big kid ride. 
She insisted! 

Fair bunnies!


Drive that truck!

No description required. Are you kidding me with that cuteness?!?

Keane's first fair ride

We went to the fair on Saturday night. We left the house about 15 minutes before the kids bedtime. They both loved the lights and rallied until 930p! We all had a fantastic time. Keane used his good looks to get on three rides for free. This was a major accomplishment since he technically wasn't even tall enough to go on any rides, much less for free! The slide was his first. A little hard to see, but I like the flying arms. Avery Grace is rocketing by his side.
