Clarissa and I have been sneaking around for the past month working on surprising her family for Thanksgiving!  All of our behind the scenes effort paid off with such a fun day of surprising everyone!<\/p>\n

All of our Pond babies have always loved the Ziemke kids and cuddle with them right off the bat!  No introductions needed!  We ended up telling Cayden two days before I got there because we just had to tell someone else (Clarissa told her grandma Celia too)!<\/p>\n

Cindy was at work when we arrived, so we got to surprise Curt first.  Clarissa walked in with baby Rose on her hip and Curt said he instantly knew it was a Pond girl and was looking over his shoulder for me!<\/p>\n

This is how far back Cindy and I go, and Curt for that matter, because they were high school sweethearts.  I gave Cindy this magnet a few years ago because it has \u201cFriends\u201d misspelled on it and that just made me laugh and reminded me of how goofy we are together!<\/p>\n

Corbin has been begging to meet baby Rose, and he was SO good with her!  This was Cindy getting filled in on the big surprise.  She was so shocked\u2026 she said it was surreal!  <\/p>\n

Rose and Curt instantly bonded.<\/p>\n

It was so incredible to see their little connection unfold before our eyes!<\/p>\n

And this is how our week began, with these two so thankful for some time together!<\/p>\n
