It's Fall Y'all!

The Leonards LOVE October! We are off to a great start too! Jack is loving 1st grade and comes home with something new he has learned everyday! Lucy continues to be the social butterfly in her class and amazes her teachers (and us) each day with her very mature and wide open thoughts!

Jack has one more day of running camp this week. He has participated in "Gotta Run Kids" and has really enjoyed it and improved! He is training to run a timed mile this Tuesday! He actually ran the whole mile this past Tuesday and we went out to eat pizza and celebrate! I was so proud of him and he had a smile on his face each time he came around for a lap! He even finished first in the group! It was really fun to see him so proud of himself too! It's been a good experience for us! He is also having fun with Cub Scouts too! He is a Tiger Cub and Steven is his Den Leader! Such a fun thing for the boys to do together! They have had several meetings, went on an adventure to the Roswell Mill and Jack got his Bobcat Badge this week! Jack's other big news is that he lost his first tooth this morning!!!! Snaggle tooth!!! Fun and sad for us! Such a big kid!

The family has enjoyed a few outings this Fall! We went to Hillcrest Orchards to spend the day and pick apples! The Coopers met us up there and we had a really fun time! We headed over to Cartecay Vineyards after that to try some wine and enjoy their Crush Festival! We ran into some high school friends that we had not seen in years! It was a really fun Saturday! We went to the Greek Festival Friday night! It's an annual tradition for us and never disappoints! SUCH great food, rides for the kiddos and yummy treats! We walked over from Julie and Scott's house! The first time we went with no kiddos... we have had up to 4 kids in strollers and this time the big kids walked with us! It's amazing how each year changes!
We got to go to the auction at the kids school last weekend! We were the happy winners of the desk that Jack's class painted and decorated! He was very excited! We even got to go for drinks and dinner with the Reilly's before the auction!!!
Speaking of the Reilly's...we had AMAZING seats for Garth Brooks a couple of weeks ago! We started our night with dinner in downtown Roswell and then headed to Philips for the show! SUCH a fun night!! We were up on our feet (and toes!) the whole show!

Let's see...what else to catch up on this Fall! Lots of changes for me!! I am about to start a new adventure with a new company! Just a crazy time! It's a very exciting time and also a very sad time for me. I have some amazing friends at Turner and have made some amazing memories! I will be starting a new career with BDR Partners in November! Wish us luck as we start a new adventure! I think it will be great for our family!
I have also started leading some classes on Saturday at Higher Purpose Fitness. It's a VERY exciting and rewarding experience for me. It's just FUN TOO!!!!! HPF is a huge part of my life and to get to lead classes there is quite the privilege!

Happy times for the Leonards! Happy and thankful everyday!
