Seven is the perfect number

There's that over-used line about blood being thicker than water. I don't necessarily agree with it. But I do recognize that blood is powerful enough to span 22 years and 150 miles. Because that's how much separates these seven cousins, and yet they share a connection each time they get together.
 

Baby Zoe is attempting to prove her individuality by showing up with a full head of dark hair. Good luck with that, Zoe. AJ tried it too, but was blonde within six months.
 
I don't think it's blood, or even a particular blonde gene that binds this group together. From my kids' perspective, they simply recognize that their cousins are all pretty special and fun people, and it's always a treat when they get to play with them.
