Fun With Great Grandma & Grandpa Barfuss

When i found out my Grandma has breast cancer i started crying. I love her so much, she is such a great role model to me. I hope someday i will be an awesome grandma like she has been to me. I know she will fight this battle and win! She is so giddy and happy all the time (i think thats where i get it haha) and with Grandpa by here side and all of us Barfuss' i know she will over come it. We love you Grandma and miss you dearly, I wish we could be there to help you through this!

Silly Us!

Patrick and I love to be crazy sometimes. . . me more than him. We are having so much fun here in Texas but we do miss our families like crazy! I want to cry every time i talk to them and patrick surprisingly filled up with tears the other day when he talked to his dad! :( See Patrick usually doesn't get emotional like that so i know for sure we won't live here forever because he misses his family to (as do I) Yeah!

My Little Boy!

This is Jaxston's favorite thing to do:

about our family . . .

Patrick and i were sealed for time and all eternity on march 23 of 2007 in the Salt Lake Temple. We went to California on our honeymoon to DisneyLand and Six Flags. We had so much fun screaming on all of the rides at six flags. I even passed out on the Galiath . . . haha it was kinda funny :) about six months later we found out i was having a baby! I came home from work to tell Patrick and right after i told him there was that little earth quake. . . we thought someone ran into our apartment. haha. Jaxston was born on April 29th of 2008. He was pretty much bald but he was so cute and we were so excited to have him in our lives! On January 1st of 2009 i found out i was pregnant again! We were both shocked. It was not planned and i had a hard time with it. But i figured God must need me to have this child for some good reason so i was ok after a while. Dominic was born on August 21st of 2009. It was a scary delivery. He was in the breech position and had to do a C-section. He had the umbilical cord wrapped around his neck 3 times and had to do CPR on him. Everything was ok and im glad he is here! He had a head full of dark hair and we didn't think he was ours! I wouldn't take him back for the world. Things have been so great, Jaxston loves his little brother. He always wants to give him kisses and pet his hair.
