Telling the Families!

--May 16-21--

So how do you announce to your families that you going through this process? What about when the live overseas and in a total of 9 different states?

You go away on your 5th Anniversary trip and get Mickey Mouse Ears that are custom made with Adopting on them! Then you walk around taking pictures of the ears and getting your picture taken with the ears!

Then you realize that by the time you get the pictures taken you look a hot mess!

And even though some came out really cute we knew we had time to design our announcement.

So when we got home Jeff and I agreed that we didn't want to tell anyone else until we got that famous envelope. Then we would tell our families with a post card we could custom design.

Sorry the pictures aren't clear I will try to update them!

So once we got the envelope we finalized our design and ordered the very special post cards! Once we got them I spent the weekend addressing and stamping them all.

So how do you make sure everyone gets notified around the same time? Timing! First went out the international pile. Small but first to go. Then you wait. And keep waiting. Okay out of states can go out! Finally on Saturday you mail out the Jersey pile because going over the weekend should help with making sure everyone finds out within a day of each other!

We are so excited to share this news with our families. We have waited a long time to be able to get all silly and have some type of announcements and going Disney just fit!
