Feeding Ducks at the Park with Amanda

Visiting with the Great Grandparents in Columbia

Great Grandad is helping Luke with a shave! Luke was quite hairy!

Vacation with the Bare Family in the Mountains

It is beautiful in the mountains! Luke loved playing in the stream with his dad!

We celebrated Gregory's promotion/move with his job. We treasure the time we get to spend with Gregory and Amanda.
Here's Luke and his "Gamaw" (Luke's version of Grandma- quite southern sounding!)

Ostendorff Vacation in Arkansas

We were able to stop in Nashville on the way to Arkansas and visit with great friends George and Laurie and their 6 month old, Nate.

Here's Luke and Nate.

In Arkansas, Papa O and Shosho took us to the Little Rock Zoo.





This was a particularly special time together as a family as Sara and Allen will be going overseas this October for several years. We will miss them but are excited for the new adventures that God has in store for them!



It was great to be with Great Gr.ma as well. What a special treat for she and Hamilton to spend time together as Hamilton was only 6 weeks old.

Bare (ha! ha!) with me as I figure this blogging thing out. The pictures are out of order and I am unable to post a lot of good pictures because they post sideways. Apparently, other Mac users are having the same problem.

Here's a recent family photo. It was taken at a friend's wedding here in Winston.

Wow! I am going from cave-woman to high tech mommy all in one week! From tape-player walkman to Ipod and now a blog site! Can the world handle this?!!!
