Easter weekend aka "The Big Reveal"

This weekend we went to Houston for Easter and to tell our family our big news. We arrived late Friday night after a long drive and I was exhausted. My parents kept joking that the only reason we decided to come home for Easter was because they decided to do a big easter egg hunt with money in the eggs! Little did they know that we did not care about the money eggs but that we had a big surprise for them! On Saturday, Allison and Steve showed up around noon and my grandparents came over around 4:00 p.m. Shortly after they arrived, we handed out gifts to my grandparents, my sister, my dad and my mom. We gave my grandparents their souvenier from Africa, gave my sister her birthday present, and then told my parents we did not want them to feel left out so we got them gifts. My parents recently adopted a new dog (Daisy), and we gave my Dad the book "Dog training for dummies." Then, my mom opened her gift--a onesie we had made that said "I love the Gramps!" She definitely did not get it at first, but soon figured out the big news! Frank wisely thought to get the big reveal on video, and the look on my mom's face is priceless!



Everyone was shocked, but so excited for us. We spent the rest of the weekend celebrating Easter, the baby, Allison & Steve's birthdays, and Frank's exciting grad school news. Frank officially accepted his offer to attend Auburn's EMBA program, and we are very excited for him!
