Granville Leithauser's Holiday 2023 Card

 



Wishing you a Happy New Year as we wrap up 2023 and welcome 2024!

For Life on Newark-Granville Road, 2023 has been a productive year! The card notes highlights all covered in earlier posts on the blog, thanks for reading and visiting the site. We hope you'll return for updates for the Derby 2024 party and join us! We use our card to serve as our invite!!

Other things to share, and expand on, including photos of Susan and Peter, I should have marked (not pictured in the fine print like Paula did- well done!):

Joe's election! He was indeed sworn in to embark on this journey to serve, learn, and work at this important time in our history.  December 20th's meeting will have a celebratory feel as it is his first meeting, the kids will join- this is documented on the Post about his campaign, election and concludes with installation!

Clare in DC- yes our working girl- she has a great apartment, walks to work, or rides the metro, she didn't want a car and I don't blame her.  https://www.linkedin.com/in/clare-leithauser/    She also had a great summer with important responsibilities with Junior Camp at Camp Alleghany.  (Update- full time offer accepted she starts in January with same organization!

Peter- Wabash senior! A highlight of our fall was Peter's return to Granville with fellow Wallies for the break and Wabash DU Soccer and Football games.  Yes, he is thinking about his career search...after comps! His summer internship at Denison was special and we're grateful to all who made it happen.






Sally-Blue Ace to DePauw Tiger! She's made the adjustment well and found her school. We loved traveling to see her play and catching up on her DePauw experiences. The trip to Lexington a delight. She too had a great summer at Camp Alleghany as a full counselor.

Susan and Joe are enjoying the new status of an empty nest, open nest- we've seen the kids a fair amount in their new habitats and for Fall Break or gatherings like at DePauw v Wooster weekend! Susan's routine has changed as she isn't studying every weekend, the degree was completed in August! No formal graduation but the degree is framed and see the picture below showcasing a short hoodding ceremony conducted at Denison. Wahoo! Denison's travel and work with families continues to be very rewarding. Joe enjoys Infoverity's colleagues and clients!




Life on Newark-Granville was productive in 2023. We valued every visit with friends and family in Granville. It is one of the reasons we love living here. Trips and travels are part of what we love and we're grateful for hospitality and time together!
