how we told family

 

The Big Reveal

Brian and I wanted to share the news in person with our immediate family, which actually worked out perfect. The Pearson's were in town for Thanksgiving and we went to California to see the Reed's for Christmas.

Pearson Family: When Cathi, Alan, James and John were in town for Thanksgiving, we gave everyone an envelope with one of these pictures inside. They opened it up and were ecstatic, as were we to finally share the news with someone!! We made a call to Kevin, who was out in California and told him he was going to be an uncle as well. They had strict orders to keep this a secret until we shared the news with the Reed's in December.

Reed Family: We put these pictures on coasters and had Bob, Judy, Christopher and Greta all open one when we finally arrived to Indian Wells. My Godparents, Tom and Donna, were also at the house so they heard the news as well. Everyone was very excited and the secret was officially out!!
