National DS Convention: DC

Our summer of traveling continued when, a few weeks ago, we went to our nation's capitol for the annual National Down Syndrome Congress convention. I really needed the positive distraction this provided for me and was looking forward to seeing old, and meeting new, friends. Love the 'family reunion' atmosphere of convention. Oh! And workshops! Lots of great information coming out of the workshops too ... but this post will be all about the wonderful blogging/online friends I was able to see that weekend.

Mutterings and Musings  

(this was our first time meeting and I'm so glad we were able to have dinner together and chat!)

 The Zoromski Chronicles

At the generosity of Trial Run we had a fun party in her hotel room!

It's becoming an annual tradition to hang out with *Results Not Typical family ... fun watching our girls grow year after year!

  Lovin' on the newest addition to their family.

 She was covering his ears because she said it was too loud.

Baxter Sez, Trial Run, *Results Not Typical, Unringing the Bell, and me! 

A family from Roswell, NM that we met through the Buddy Walk when we used to live at Holloman AFB, NM. Now we get to see them every year at convention!

The next two pictures are with the adorable Zoromski girls!
