Sara and I just returned from the Baumgartner family reunion in Halstead, Kansas. Apparently her mother’s ancestors were Mennonites who settled in Kansas around the turn of the century. While her mother and her uncles had never been to Halstead, there was a large contingent of second or third x-removed cousins that grew up there. They were kind enough to host a reception and share what they knew of the family history.

Photos of the trip and reunion can be seen on my Baumgartner Family Reunion Flickr set.

This site has undergone a major overhaul in preparation for our year in Indonesia. Sara and I thought it would be useful to use this address as a blog to allow our family and friends to keep track of us in our adventure overseas. If you were looking for the old wedding webpage follow this link.
