4 little cutie pies on the final day... Joey (sorry, I cut you off!), Brennan in the back, Joaquin and John Michael.
John Michael kept bolting... it's like he's saying "No more pictures, I have other things to do..."

Even though we all live in other parts of the country, these are friendships that will last a lifetime because of a common bond. It's awesome to see these young people chatting with older teens and young adults who have Down syndrome. At the dinner, Greta danced with a boy who has Ds and Anna had a nice conversation with a self-advocate and his fiancee sitting at our dinner table. Awesome!
Next year we're in Orlando (think positive!) Well, at least I'm hoping to make it!
love the photos. so wonderful you all had a great time. I look forward to going some day and being able to meet everyone!
