December 25, 2010: The Day we told our parents and my sister Mony

Chris and I hosted Christmas dinner with his parents, Pam and Lar, my mom, Cristina, and my sister, Mony.  Our final present to them was the news of the pregnancy. None of them had suspected because Chris and I had been pretty sneaky up until that point. While they were congregating in our living room awaiting the champagne toast Chris and I were pouring, we kept giggling to each other in anticipation of their reaction. 

We handed them the below card and sure enough, they each had the reaction we had talked about.  It was priceless and we couldn’t have been happier. It was the best Christmas ever!
