Family Pictures

So a few weeks ago we had family pictures taken with my moms family. It took a while considering that there are over 40 people that we were trying to get to smile at the same time. It was hard enough to get everyone to look at the camera at the same time. So while we were there we decided to have a few little family pictures taken. Its been over a year since we had professional ones taken with just my little family. So here are my favorites!


I love her big baby blues!



She is so photogenic! I love every little thing about her!



This one is the last family picture we had taken before Brandon left on his mission. And believe it or not, this is the first professional picture with my family with Chris in it.



All in all it was so fun! We were so lucky to have my moms cousin Sherri Beavers take our pictures. Check out her website at www.sweetpeapix.com for more pictures. I would highly recommend her for your next photo session!

New bike!!!

Today we got Madison her very own bike with training wheels. She was so excited! Chris' dad has this boy bike that is really wobbly because the training wheels are bent out, and Maddie always wants to ride it. Once she gets on it though, she freaks out because she almost tips over every time. So went down to the good old Walmart today, and bought her her very own pink girl bike. The one rule with a big girl bike is that she has to wear her helmet and knee and arm pads. She loved to get all decked out in her new bike attire. Hopefully warm weather lasts a little longer so she can get some good riding before it gets too cold.

I am a total idiot!!!

So I just wanted to see how many people would realize that I am an idiot before someone told me.... DING DING DING Nikki is the winner!!! I guess my blog doesn't really have a virus. The background that I had had exceeded its bandwidth limit. I don't even know what that means, but I do know that I went through a lot of unnecessary stress this afternoon to start a new blog, and to let everyone know. So scratch that!! I am going to delete the new blog and we are going to stick with this one! Thanks for staying with me through all he confusion! I'm glad that I get to keep my blog!

FYI!!!

FOR THOSE OF YOUTHAT CAN READ THIS!!!
Hey guys...So apparently I guess I got a virus on my other blog, and it had this photobucket ad all over the blog. Weird thing is that it only showed up on some peoples computers. So I decided to start a new blog, leaving the other one open just in case I can get rid of it. So from now on, please direct yourself to my new blog. Again that web address is chrisandlindseybarfuss.blogspot.com Sorry for all the confusion!

Kids are so funny...

Kids are so funny! the other day I made brownies for our neighbor because it was his 40th birthday!! Last night we were heading to run some errands, and I had just cut a little piece of brownie for Madison. She quickly ate it, and then a few minutes later this is the conversation we had.

Madison: "Hey guys,(talking to Chris and I), I got an idea..."

Me: "What's that Maddie?"

Madison: "I think that when we get home you can get me another little tiny square of brownie..."

Me: "Oh really, you think that is a good idea?"

Madison: "Yeah mom, its the best idea!"

I love it! I love how she is becoming a little person with her own thoughts, and her own opinions. Even thought sometimes her opinions are a little too much for me to handle with the attitude thrown in the mix. She is such a sweetie, and makes us laugh all the time!
