December 2011: Zippy's Birthday

The morning after we returned from our adventures in Guatemala, we woke up well rested and finally got to hug and kiss our sweet kiddos.  We were all so happy to see each other!  After our initial hello's, the kids couldn't wait to see what goodies we had brought for them from Guatemala.

This day also happened to be my birthday--yay!  While J-rod took me out on the quad, the kids make birthday cakes with Grandma S and prepared for a fun family party later that night.  It was a wonderful day and I'm grateful to all the S family for making it such a special day for me!
