Bowers Blog: Finishing up Fall 2022

The kids have taken over the use of the main computer every Sunday working on homework or projects, so I'm finally getting a chance to get on it to make a post for the fall. I have under 50 pictures to share from the past 2 months :) aaaaand 5 videos from the girls "Falliday" chorus concert. I remember loving to go back and watch my chorus concerts on video, so I'm saving them here for the girls. I think Ellie's grade performed one other song that isn't posted here, but I had to narrow it to 2 videos for each girls grade and 1 video of the entire middle school chorus together. They did so good!

Other than chorus, there have been tons of activities. Emma made the middle school basketball team and has gotten to play in a couple of games. Halloween was hectic, but we made it happen for 2 Bowers kids. Ellie had dance that night and couldn't participate:( We've made it to 2 UGA games in Athens and had a blast with the Berrymans, and we celebrated Thanksgiving here at our house with the Tifts and the Bowers.

We were all so happy for Emma to make the 6th-7th grade basketball team as a 6th grader!

The kids and I started out at Amos's tailgate for the Auburn game. We took a lovely walk back to our tailgate on the other side of the campus. The weather was beautiful that morning, and it was a delightful 30 minute walk through campus with my kiddos. They may not have enjoyed me pointing out buildings, places where I had classes, rode the campus bus, etc., but I thoroughly enjoyed it.

For the 1st time ever as a family, we were able to get to the Dawg Walk before the UGA vs. Auburn game. Mack got to touch Brock Bowers' hand. Mack was so star struck he wouldn't touch anything for a couple of hours with that hand that had high 5'd Brock.

They also got a hit from Hairy Dawg

Sweating it out in the stands.

This girl cheered her heart out for the Dawgs at the 2 games we went to. She even made it on the Jumbotron with Bo at the UGA vs. Tend game.

Bo and Mack still hold hands when they leave the game together. I wonder how long this will continue.

My pumpkins are getting bigger every year! They even still let me get their picture at the church pumpkin patch.

Mack had a mighty K-Kids choir performance in church.

Mack has gotten a couple of personal pan pizzas for meeting his weekly AR goal at school.

Mack is not a huge fan of pumpkin carving. The pumpkin guts freak him out. Emma was torturing him with them in this picture.

And they're off! Emma and Mack enjoyed trick or treating this year. Ellie had dance so she couldn't participate

The mileage on our Suburban hit 123456 recently - I got a new one shortly after compiling all of the pictures for this fall post.

These pictures are all out of order, but this was from our church Trunk or Treat - we had a UGA themed trunk in which you used a nerf gun to shoot down other SEC teams. I'm pretty sure our trunk was one of the most popular. Worth and I didn't get to sit the entire time we were so busy setting up the targets. Ellie got to wear her costume - the Snow Queen from the Nutcracker.
