The Otness Family: Home Sweet Home

Well we are back from yet another vacation and settling back into our normal routine. We took a trip to Georgia for the wedding of my brother, Josh, and Misty. It was a beautiful wedding, that took place on a perfect cloudless day, and everything went off without a hitch!! I didn't take a lot of photographs in Georgia because I was trying my hand out at being a single mom (Justin had to stay behind for work) but man were my hands full. Luckily I have a very helpful and willing family that pitched in with Wyatt so I was actually able to lay by the pool and get a tan! My Aunt Kathy however did take the pictures at the wedding and they turned out amazingly! We had the perfect picturesque golf course to take the pictures on, but even so her creative eye and skill made for a ton of great pictures for Josh & Misty.

Here are a couple of my pictures from our trip to Papa's farm.

After roasting in the Georgia sun to a nice crisp, it was off to Oregon to meet up with Justin and his family. I had never been before so I wasn't quite sure what to expect, but I have to say, Oregon, you surpassed my expectations. Aside from weather that was mostly gray, we were able to get out and see what Oregon had to offer. Despite the weather we visited a few great beaches, and I have sand in everything to prove it. Wyatt could have built a house and moved right in. He was in love with the sand! He was crawling in it, rolling, digging, eating =) just having a blast. He also had his cousins Lilli and Haydn there with him and they are the best of friends despite the 6 and 7 year age gap. Wyatt's face lights up when he sees them! When you get a family together in a beach house for a week, it can go one of two ways, a great time, or a disaster, and I'm happy to say that this trip was the first. We hope to make the family trips an every other summer event. Hopefully Justin finds some extra gold at work to pay for these trips =) Here are some pictures of our time in Oregon, enjoy!
