It's Fall!!!!

The Leonards LOVE FALL! I think I say that every year. It is VERY much our favorite season! We have already bought our Octoberfest beer, got out all of our Fall decorations, noticed some leaves changing colors, made homemade banana nut bread, worn some cute matching Fall outfits and made it to a Georgia Tech football game! And we are only one day in to the season! Lots more fun to come this Fall! The weather is really helping out! It's so nice to have a break in the heat!

We had a fun...and LONG Saturday! Mommy started the morning very early with an 8 mile run with some fabulous ladies! Then we all headed to Jack's t-ball game! Jack slid into home for the first time! We have been begging him for two seasons to slide! And he finally did it (And Mommy missed it! Yikes... I was chasing Miss Lucy!) He is continuing to be aggressive going after the ball and really having fun with his team! After the game, we had a quick lunch at a local bakery and went home to get ready for the football game. Jack was so excited and has been asking about going to a Tech game since we went to Fan Day. We met up with a few friends and some Turner people for tailgating. As soon as we got on campus, we walked into the band and cheerleaders playing in front of the Student Center. We had to stay and watch the whole thing. Jack LOVED it! Lucy thought it was "too loud"! Jack kept asking when we were going to go into the game! We finally got to our seats and Jack had the best time. He watched all the plays, kept up with whatever "Buzz Bee" was doing, and paid attention to the band! It was so fun to see him be so excited and cheer. He always wanted to be able to see! It was so fun! Lucy did pretty well considering it was a long day and no nap for her. She was getting pretty tough by half time. We stayed to watch the band at half time and then headed to our favorite pizza place to watch the end of the game. Unfortunately, it was a TERRIBLE end to the game, but it still was a fun time for our little foursome! Kiddos crashed when we got home and so did we!

It's a gorgeous morning and we are headed out to enjoy the weather!

Snacks on Friday evening with friends!

Daddy made up a game of running the kids around on a giant shovel. They loved it of course!

Whee!

Hold on Lucy!!!!

Cute Fall kiddos! Can you believe how big they are?!

Katie and Julie at another game at Tech... been doing that for a long time (I would rather not say how long! Ha!)

Kiddos at Tech!

Jack and Lucy found fun playing in the ice (full of beer) at the Turner Tailgate!

Lucy thought the ice was "Coooooold!"

Let's go to the game Daddy!

Jack loved watching the game! Beautiful day at Tech!

Lucy "enjoying" the game! Snacks and a drink!

Happy girl with mommy!

Everyone was happy to get out of the sun and enjoy some pizza!
