wedding bells

Saturday is the big day. Miss Sarah Sharp will become Mrs. Sarah Smith. I love how Sharpie has always dreamed of a unique and glamorous last name and she is going from Sharp to Smith. But as generic as the name is she is anything but! What a joy it will be to watch her make her vows on October 4th, to the man the Lord ordained she would spend her days with. Sharpie surely the Lord has not withheld his goodness from you, and all your days are written in his book, especially your wedding day! I hope it is all you imagined it to be and more. love you.

Victory!

Jer, Jesse & I got 3 tickets to the Redskins game on Sunday from Uncle Tom! We were new at the whole tailgating things, compared to the people with fancy grills, tents, face paint, etc. It was the perfect day out, and to our surprise Garrett & Elise also got tickets to the game. So we were able to hang out with them in the parking lot before heading in.

I had go to a professional football game on my bucket list, so it was my delight to cross another one off! Football games are quite the expeirence. We were in row 5 on the goal line, with all the people who have season tickets. The guy behind us was the Nick DiMaio die hard fan of D.C. Lets just say he banged his head on all three of our heads before the game even began. This little boy in front of us, at the end of the game when the Redskins had won, said "i'm feeling real good about this win", he was high fiving all of us after each play and teaching us all sorts of dance moves. I still think Philly fans are way more interesting, but Redskin fans are a close runner up. I've decided I can both!

August/September

Since I last posted some of things going on in the newest Bowers' world....


-Sharpie's Shower. The favor was my favorite part, mini sharpies tied to some Mike & Ikes. I loved catching up with lots of ladies that I love.


-Youth Camp 2008 up at Camp Ladore. I did admin with some of my favorite people. We made great memories. Some favorites: "bear" siteings, swimming in the lake, wing competitions, riding in Meg's mini. Two cuties won camper of the week, Alysia & Nick. And despite our attempts Meg and I never saw the shooting star! The Admin Team was participating in our own invented Admin Olympics. Competitions like the Gatorade Toss, Golf Cart racing, ...I actually can't remember that many, we made them up as we went along. Though Christopher's were always pending review. :)


-During YC'08 Jeremy and I spent out first time apart. 8 days is a long time when you were only married for 2 months! But we got through it.


-So far Jer has done all the things he has ever wanted to in the Police Academy. Firearms and Driving. :) He has lots of good stories, be sure to ask him!! My favorite is the cone dance. :)


-I crossed off my Bucket List: Read 7 Jodi Picoult books. That made my heart happy.


-Jer participated in the Police Pace. A 5k to raise money for falled officers families.


-We saw Acts put on by some of the singles. Garrett displayed his secret acting skills. And Moe, Ed & his sister, Justine, Gen, Tommy & Alysia all came down to see it, so we got to spend some time with them!


-We went to the 9:30 club to see Zelos. Gotta love those Grovemans, they have more talent in their pinky finger then I will ever have!


-This past weekend was a trip up to Hanover for a bbq at Aunt Joy's with the Bowers side of the family.

-Then Elise and Garrett came over for the Eagles/Cowboys game. It was a fun game to watch with such good company!

Next update will have some pictures: Jer's birthday! Homecoming at CovLife school and Sharpie's wedding!!!
