Auntie Jenny - Good luck Fullertons!!

Shannen - Man! We look exhausted and we hadn’t even left yet.

By the numbers…

100 – Number of kilometres that we will cycle tomorrow

0 – Number of times I’ve done this before

8 – the time the race starts

3 – Number of breaks we get during the ride

5 – Number of hours it is expected to take

1555 – Amount of money that I raised

1285 – Amount of money that Dan raised

1 – Winner.  Me.  🙂

1, 000, 000 – A million thanks to all of you who donated, sent words of encouragement and who have supported us already.  And especially to my parents who drove 12 hours to be here this weekend to take care of our monkeys while we are out on our bikes.  We couldn’t have done it without you.

 

 

 

What a difference a year makes…

Alicia - Wow. Awesome photos…Dan hasn’t changed much.

Dan - OK, so I have the same haircut, facial hair and jeans on. My shirt is different at least 🙂 It’s amazing to think back on the shy little girl that hid under the slide in the playground on her first day. She’s much more confident, well spoken, knows what she wants. She’s growing up!

Dominik - Dan improved his smile though 🙂

Will work for food…With an update!

Or in this case, donations.

Dan and I are so close to our goal but we still need your help.  So, we thought we’d get creative.  ALL proceeds (that’s 100%) will go to Ride the Rideau in support of Dan and I.  We could really, really, really use your help.  We hop on our bikes in 4 sleeps.  We’ve come so far, please help us get all the way there.

I will be offering three packages for silent auction.

1.  Lifestyle photo session from visuelle photography (Ottawa, Virginia, Saskatoon)

2.  Custom made hat from hat heads

3.  One personal training session with Sarah Bell (Ottawa)

So, the way this will work is any bids can be sent to me via email (shannenfullerton@gmail.com).  I will immediately update the post to let you know what the current bid is at.  This silent auction will close Thursday at 9pm.

If you’d rather not mess around with this auction business and want to make a donation, you can do that here:

Support Dan

Support Shannen

Or, if you’d rather not donate online, we’d be happy to accept cash and make the donation for you.

Thanks again to everyone for being so generous.  We hope you know how much your support means to us.  We could not have come this far without you.

Shannen and Dan

P.S.  I’m still totally kicking Dan’s butt.

Beautiful girl…

I left you hanging.  Sorry ’bout that.

Labour and delivery took longer and was harder than we all expected.  This has been a very long, tiring weekend (mostly for the parents, but also for those cheering them on).  But I’m finally proud to introduce my beautiful niece, Araya.  Prepare to melt.

And the proudest auntie and cousin EVER…
