Park time!

Nov 2nd:

While Grandma was here, we went to Washington Park to play and take some photos. It was a beautiful day and we too full advantage.

Grandma loves her boys! 

And we took a family pic, too. One of my favs! 

And this is a good one, too. :)

Happy Fall, Y'all-

and Happy Blogging!

Halloween with Grandma!

We had a pretty fun Halloween with Grandma Sharp this year. P decided to be a scary skeleton, B was Scream and lil A was the cutest Captain America EVER! :)

The big boys went trick or treating with friends! (holy old!!!) and Lil A went around a few blocks with mom and dad and grandma. It was cold, but we bundled up and got our scare on. 

Lil A had fun trick or treating, but I really think he had just as much fun handing out candy to the trick or treaters later on that night. :) 

All 3 got WAY TOO MUCH candy and the adults did what we could to help that out. :)

Happy Halloween all!

This could help me...

Okay, so I'm late to the game again... As I was with Pinterest, Facebook and gmail..
I just found this Blogger app and I'm pretty excited about it- and let me tell you why! My last post on this blog was in March! Ugh. It is really hard to sit down at  the computer at night, after I've been in front of one all day. However, I don't mind grabbing my ipad and typing! :)

So, since March, a lot has  happened. A few birthdays, trips, fun family outings, etc. 

Here are a few things that I haven't blogged about:

Easter fun

My first 10k race!!

P's 12th birthday!

Our TX road trip, in our new car!

B's Spring Baseball experience

Camping with friends this Summer

My NY trip

Lil A's 4th birthday!

Fall fun in Estes

2013 Monster Dash, the boys first race!

**just to name a few**

Hopefully this app will make it easier to update this blog for our family and friends. Here's hoping! :) 

Fun times in the Sharp house! We are enjoying life- and making the most of what we have! 

Happy Blogging!

First day of Spring Break?!?!

Snow Day!

one busy day for P (and mamma)

A wrestling meet AND a band concert, all in one night. P did them both and had a lot of fun.
He has really enjoyed wrestling this year, as well as playing the alto sax in the school band.
Sixth grade has had it's rough patches, but it's been a good year for the most part.

sunny and 57!

lil A and i took advantage of the beautiful jan day and headed to the zoo with some friends. we both had so much fun!
what a difference it is going to the zoo with ONE child! wow.
we loaded up the wagon with snacks and juice boxes and we were off! we saw a lot of lively animals, had ice cream (i know, i said we packed snacks. oh well) and rode the carousel.

(a few) photos from our day...

P & B decided to stay and play with their friends....big bums. ;) they missed out. when i was showing P all the photos i took, he told me he wished he would have gone. awww, he isn't too big for the zoo! :)

first post of 2013!

monday, jan 21st: family day, everyone is home!
we slept in...a rare treat, and then headed to Evergreen. we stopped at Lookout Mountain on the way. views are amazing there.

we had lunch near Evergreen, at our favorite little cafe, and then drove over to the lake. our plan was to go ice skating there, however, it was SO crowded... we decided to drive down to Louisville and go ice skating there. we go to that one at least once a year...
i'm not sure what was going on, but we got a few pairs of really BAD skates. we need to just buy our own! it was fun anyway, P is getting really good. he even pulled lil A around a bit. we didn't brave skates for lil A just yet. ;)

as if we weren't cold enough from ice skating outside, we decided to walk around Old Town Arvada and get some ice cream at Scrumptious. Yum!

we walked around for a little bit and then headed over to Rock Bottom to meet some friends for dinner. Four adults, SIX kids please. ;) it was a lot of fun- the kids even got their OWN table. sweet!

such a fun day! we can't wait for daddy to get weekends OFF. so.many.plans.
