9 May 2023 Arlington VA: Here come The 11's

 

Our trip to DC with the 11 year old grand nieces and nephews continues with a new batch of 11's.  Hayden, Jaxon and Zachary are the CC'c, cool cousins.  otherwise they are the XYZ gang.  The X is for Jaxon, the Y is for Hayden and the Z is for Zachary.  This is a thing that we have done now three times, but this time it is three at once.  To help Laura has joined us.  We are so lucky for that and to top it off it is her birthday!  So there is celebration all around.
