The Holidays are coming!

Have you noticed that the stores

have Christmas all mixed up with Halloween

and poor Thanksgiving is hiding 

behind the counters?

We've had several inquiries about dates

for the Barfuss Christmas parties

and since the calendar is filling up fast

we thought we'd better let you know

what we're thinking.

We realize that as our family grows, it is

impossible to avoid conflicts....

We are just happy to have as many as can come

 be with us to celebrate.

SO

The younger Wilfardo/Wilfy Party

will be Saturday December 21, 2013

at 12:00 noon

at Grandpa and Grandma's house

with the traditional lunch,

cousin gift exchange,

program,

and Christmas stocking.

The Adult Wilfardo Party

will be Monday December 30, 2013

at 6:30 p.m.

at Grandpa and Grandma's house

for planned pot luck supper,

White Elephant gift exchange,

and Christmas stockings.

More information will be coming...

Put these dates on your calendar and hope

they will fit in with your holiday schedule!

Val's Shower Location Change

Val's wedding shower will be held at Aunt Julie Beck's home

instead of Grandma and Grandpa's place.

They have a new missionary living with them 

from Brazil and he has to study the language every day

so the missionaries don't leave until 1:00 pm instead of 10:00 am

so.....

Plan to come to Aunt Julie's on 

Saturday Sept. 14, 2013

for brunch, tying the quilt and showering gifts

any time between 11:00 am and 2:00 pm

It will be great to see everyone!

Val's Bridal Shower

Val and Dan are getting married October 4, 2013

We're having a shower for Val with all the ladies

and girls in the Barfuss Family

on 

Saturday September 14, 2013

From 11:00 am to 2:00 pm

at

Grandpa and Grandma's house.

Come when you can, have brunch,

help with the quilt, and shower Val with gifts 

to help her set up housekeeping!

Please let Grandma know if you are coming by 

Sunday September 8, 2013 via e-mail or facebook

  at   jsbarfuss@comcast.net

or call 801-255-3498

Hope to see y'all there!

Barfuss Family History

          Have you ever wanted to know more about your parents, grandparents and other ancestors?
Well, we'd like to start keeping a record for your own children and grandchildren.
          As part of the 2013 Barfuss family reunion, we're creating a Barfuss Family History Book.
We're asking each family to fill out a one-page FAMILY HISTORY sheet telling about your family group.
          Then we'd like to have a one-page PERSONAL HISTORY sheet on each member of our clan (yes, that includes all the spouses and children of the Barfuss Originals)
          We'll gather the pages at the reunion and put them in a binder that will be kept at Grandpa and Grandma Barfuss' home.  You can bring the completed sheets with you to the reunion (great idea for FHE this week) or we'll have blank forms you can fill out during the reunion.  If you won't be able to attend the reunion, we're asking that you please send your completed pages to Grandpa and Grandma in the mail.
           We'll e-mail an attachment giving ideas of what to include in your contribution.  If you have questions give Stacie a call.
          Thanks for your help!  We look forward to seeing you at the reunion!

Thank You!Thank You!

Thank You!  Thank You!  Everyone 

for helping us get our yard ready for summer again!

You are all amazing!

Everyone pitched in and all the "crummy" jobs got done.

The Lawn was mowed and was

 perfectly edged with the help of an edger,

but then all the old sod had to be cut away and hauled off.

The old mulch was cleared off of the flower beds

and hauled to a big pile behind the garage.

The "quack grass" was dug out of the flower beds 

by the north fence by hand....a really nasty job!

New soil pep was spread, the garden beds were

tilled and raked, The apple tree trimmed

and the branches hauled to the street.

Luckily the spring bulk garbage pick up was on Thursday!

The yard looks great and all ready for planting.

We couldn't have done it without you!!!!!

Then we ordered "Papa Johns" Pizza and the

kids happily announced the arrival of the delivery man

as he drove down the street.

We'll be anxious for you to see how good it looks

when you come to breakfast on Memorial day!!!

Thanks again for a job well done.
