Barfuss Banana Split Bash

It's good to be together and get caught up on things

The Handsome Barfuss men

With General Conference coming up
next week-end October 2nd and 3rd---
The Semi-annual Barfuss Banana Split bash
will be held Saturday evening
after the Priesthood session
at Grandpa and Grandma Barfuss'

Everyone is invited to come enjoy ice cream
and good company.
Grandpa loves to have his family members
with him for Priesthood meeting
but he realizes that many of you
have leadership responsibilities that take you elsewhere---
so come if you can.
The ladies and kids are invited to come early
and enjoy getting together too.

PICNIC CANCELLED!

With a family as big as ours
there are many conflicting activities
vying for our time....
We just seem to want to do it all...
but it's impossible to be in two places at once
SO...
with scheduled baptisms, moves to Arizona, temple sealings
and a hundred other things
we're having to cancel the Farmington Picnic
which was scheduled for Saturday July 31,2010.

Thanks to Andy and Julie for inviting us to come
to their lovely backyard...maybe next year.
In the meantime we look forward to seeing everyone
at the upcoming weddings.

Picnic in Farmington!

Andy and Julie would like to invite
everyone in the Barfuss Clan
to come to their backyard for a picnic
on Saturday July 31st
10:00 a.m. for Breakfast
(call Julie if you will be coming for breakfast)
Bring your own picnic lunch,
blankets for lounging on the lawn
lawn chairs, a favorite game,
and swimming suits for water fun!
There will be volleyball, and croquet set up.
Come and enjoy visiting together

APRICOTS! APRICOTS! APRICOTS!

The Andy Barfuss family have
an abundance of Apricots on the trees
in their backyard!
You are invited to help yourself
to as many as you can use.
Just go to their house at
673 Ridgewood Circle
Farmington----
Even if they are not home
just go around the back and pick
as many as you would like.
There are ladders to use
Just be careful and don't hurt yourself.
You need to come before July 26th
because the trees will be "stripped"
on that day.

Wilfardo Wedding Shower!

This is proving to be a busy summer for
the Farmington Barfuss'
with Spencer and Sydney getting married
on the 29th of July
and Todd and Allison getting married
the 4th of September.
We decided to have a combined
Wilfardo Wedding shower
to help them get ready.

So all you Barfuss ladies and girls....
Mark Thursday July 8, 2010 on your calendar
at 6:00 p.m.
in Grandpa and Grandma's Basement

We will have a salad bar supper,
tie a quilt for each of the brides,
Shower them with gifts,
and enjoy visiting with each other.

Please RSVP to Grandma
by Monday July 5th
so we'll know how many to prepare for...
Hope to see everyone then!

Another Great Memorial Day!

The Barfuss Memorial Day Celebration
just gets bigger and better.
New members are joining the clan

There were 47 who joined us today.
Kitt Graciously took the picture.

Alison and Todd will be married in September.

Liz and Duncan Glenn are expecting
a new baby in October.

Nick and Denise were married May 15th
Denise is holding Jenn and Jared's cute little Cory.

Spencer and Sydney will be getting Married July 29th

Can you tell that these guys are related?

Everyone helped prepare a hearty breakfast
of Scrambled eggs, sausages, hash browns, pancakes,
fresh fruit, juice and milk.
Everyone seemed to get enough to eat!
Thanks everyone for preparing a great breakfast.
And a special thanks for cleaning everything
up so well!

The little ones love being together with their cousins
around the little table.

The four square games seem to get more complicated
and exciting and noisy every year.
One thing for sure....the Barfuss' are a competitive bunch
and they sure seem to have FUN!
We missed everyone who couldn't be here.
Maybe next year!
