First off, thank you all for your patience. We had our reveal on Saturday but wanted to share with a few people before we posted it online for the world to know.

We had a wonderful party with family and close friends on Saturday. I’ll be honest and say having parties is stressful for me, but it truly was a wonderful time and I am so glad that I did it.

Our parents were able to come up early and help us set things up. It is such a blessing having their help!

However; we were able to keep it a secret from our family and friends for TWO weeks. That is not an easy task!

We found some awesome Powder Cannons to shoot off for our reveal. We wanted to do something a little different. I tried hard to come up with something running related, but couldn’t end up coming up with anything. Overall though, I think they worked perfectly!

 

Enough about all this, let’s get to what you are really here for!
