We knew we wanted to wait to tell the families until closer to the safe zone. Seeing as we had just suffered a lose we wanted to make sure baby was really sticking around before we got everyone's hopes up. Mother's day was the next big holiday so we decided, as to not leave anybody out, that we would wait and tell everyone as a late Mother's day early Father's day present.
Every step of our wedding we had pictures of our boots together. I knew that I wanted to keep that going with our baby announcement so I order a cute pair from Amazon. We also wanted to include the dogs as well. I used one of the signs from our wedding and created two cute chalkboard signs and we put together a quick photo shoot with the pups.
I put them in a hand painted black frame and dusted it with silver paint to give it a nice shine. I wrapped them up in tissue paper and one by one let our parents and grandparents open them. WARNING: Bring on the tissues and I'm sorry if any one gets embarrassed!

The only thing I wish I could have got with this one was John's reaction, his joy was truly priceless!
