an overload of wedding pictures?!!
I love the walk out after the ceremony. Every one excitedly watching and snapping pictures of the new love and the genuine faces of newly weds.
This is what happens when the second youngest of eight kids (Brett) and the youngest of 8 (Shawn) get married. Instant aunts and uncles to over 30 nieces and nephews combined. There are a few (Alli included) not in this picture of chaos, and yes, that is James screaming while being held by a nice niece of Shawns
I caught her, and even with the promise of yellow cotton candy she wouldn't be a part of that.
Can you believe how stinkin cute?!!
James was a little spent too! It was HOT that day.
The fam ( i know, nobody is looking, but it's the only one) 
The gals
The family pic that didn't really happen
The decor, or the decor. It was actually a lot of fun decorating an outdoor reception. And I had fun making a whole bunch of the flower arrangements. (don't look too close Melissa B)
Just about to start!
I think we did pretty good covering the chain link fence.
And can I tell you of my new love for yellow? My wedding had a lot of yellow and daises too, but this THIS was yellow like never before and I LOVED it.

The next day we got to do it all again! And we thought it was hot for the first wedding, we were roasting the next day for Roger and Karie's wedding.
Brett married into a ton of those nieces and nephews, and Karie got to marry into all this. (Plus all the spouses and almost 18 grankids too!) And we couldn't be happier. (I'm pretty she couldn't be happier either.)
Aunt Jeanie giving all the kids gum to keep them under control in the 3pm heat of that day.
I forgot to get someone to take a picture with all the grandkids in it too, I'm crushed.
Both of the days we so fun and everything went perfect! It was exhausting physically and emotionally, but so so fun. I'm so happy for Brett and Shawn and for Derek's dad and Karie.
Ok, so there it is! Another couple of Baldry family weddings! Austin better wait at LEAST 6 years before we do this again.

dearest lindsay,
my mother is a hairdresser with an obsession for our hair looking perfect as children far worse than anyone I may know. I just read your unfortunate story about your precious little girl with beautiful blonde ringlets chopping them off and I have news for you...
in the barfuss household not only did I, but also my sister and yes, my brother too cut his hair. Now I can't say I remember but I'm sure my mom cried on all three occassions. I think mine was the least drastic of the three, I just gave myself a little trim with my best friend at age 3 ...and like your daughter I had thin, thin, whispy blonde hair (it's thick now..that's promising) anyways, my sister on the other hand was a different story... she decided she no longer wanted bangs the day before her birthday. so she chopped them off, right to the scalp, might as well have shaved it and let me remind you..the day before her birthday. no no, mama b was not too pleased about that one either.
and finally my brother, i know you don't want to hear about boys, but this is hilarious. and yeah, my mom cried. my brother decided the best idea for him was to go for the electric razor, so he did. Right down the middle of his head. Reverse mohawk to the extreme, right to the scalp. Then he peaked around the corner with a big grin and said "mama, i gave myself a haircut!" ...she screamed, laughed, cried...it was quite the event. And he looked like a chemo kid for months, so he wore a yellow toque everyday, everywhere.
yes, it's quite alright to be upset about a little haircut. just ask good ol vicki barfuss.
