how we told our parents

at the time we were training for the bayshore marathon in traverse city, mi. i asked steve and dino if they wanted to see the design for the shirt i would wear to run in; i unzipped my sweatshirt to reveal the news. we continued to train for the marathon, until the following doctor's visit, when we were told that i would be too far along to safely run it.  disappointed at first, i quickly realized it was completely worth it!

then we met up with joe and janell in ft. wayne for a casual dinner.  after we placed our orders, we handed them each a gift to open.  as captured in the picture, they were thrilled at our news.
