Fun at Worship Practice





Every Thursday we pack up the kids and all go to church for the band's worship practice. The kids love going and watching daddy play music. Mommy and daddy love exposing them to good music and teaching them that they can be at church more than just on Sunday. This gives us a great chance to keep our children immersed in Christ and around people who love them.

Halloween!





This year for Halloween we attend a Harvest Festival at our church, it was so much fun. The kids got to play games for candy like ring toss on bottles and tossing balls in cups. There was face painting and a cupcake walk too. The best part of the night was the bouncy house and the homemade maze in the sanctuary! The kids walked away with tons of candy and had a great time.

New Apartment!


With God's help we were able to move to a new apartment that is much bigger and spacious than our old place. It has two bathrooms instead of one, a laundry room not in my kitchen, and the best part it has a dishwasher!!!! We have been so blessed to find this place and have God take care of getting us out of our old lease and into this place in less than a week. Amazing! Contact me directly for the new address.

More pictures from apple picking!





Fun Day Apple Picking






Saturday the 17th we all went apple picking with some friends from church. The apples froze for 4 days at night and the orchard was letting you pick them for free because you could now only use them to can and make applesauce. We jumped on the opportunity to make some yummy homemade applesauce. It was so much fun and the boys had a blast because they could eat the apples as they picked them and as many as they could eat. I'll post some pictures of our applesauce making soon!

Daddy's Birthday!



For daddy's 23rd birthday before he got home from school the boys made him a sign for the door and put balloons on the door. We had noise makers and party hats waiting for him when he came in. Then we headed to Spokane to have dinner at Outback Steak house. Daddy got cheese fries, ribs, and Alice springs chicken for dinner. The boys made him big cards that they worked very hard on. He got two CD's, a laser level, and a laser measuring tape! We had a great dinner and then when home for chocolate cake with cream cheese icing!

This is what you get when you have two boys!



So while Landon and I were re-painting the boys room to get rid of Parker's art work from a permanent marker the boys thought it would be really fun to dump a ten pound bag of flour on the flour and cover everything in it!

My ballerina



One of my friends had this tu-tu made for Kenzie and I think it is just adorable. I am going to have to take some really nice pretty pictures of her in it and send them to everyone. She is not sure what to think of it but we think she is darn cute in it!

Sterling started soccer this fall and is having a blast playing. He is amazing and has scored at least 3 goals every game. Landon has worked very hard to instill in him to be supportive of his team mates and has taught him how to help his team mates score goals too. Sterling has done a great job of cheering his team mates on and being just as excited for them when they score a goal as when he does. We are so proud of him and can't wait for him to be able to play more and learn more about the sport.

Mac-a-roo!



Mac-a-roo hass been very busy lately learning how to keep up with her brothers. She has been crawling around everywhere and has been pulling herself up on everything. She is even managing to move a little while holding on to things. Before we know it she will be running around with the boys! Mommy and Daddy are not ready for that.

Pumpkin Patch Adventure






On October 9th the family headed up to Spokane, WA to go to Outback with my Cousin and her family. The next day we went to Waltor Fruit Farms to pick pumpkins and apples. They had a BBQ going and rides to the apple orchard. The kids also got to play in a pea sandbox and ride on a ride called the wiggle worm which was a tractor pulling sideways barrels painted like a worm. The individual barrels wiggled too! The boys favorite part of the day was the corn shooter that they got to do. It was a huge gun that blasted dried corn cobs into a field to targets. I think that was daddy favorite too! I had so much fun picking apples for homemade applesauce and getting fresh apple cider. The kids help with the applesauce this week and it turned out great!!!!

It's the Sharretts

Hey everyone,

Just thought we would make a central place for everyone to see updates of the kids, our family life, and just other randomness! I hope to keep it updated often but who knows what will happen with our crazy life.
