The Gender Party

So ever since I saw a show on TCL where a family announced the gender of their baby through a cake to their family and friends I knew I had to do it too. I love the idea of finding out such news with loved ones instead of being alone in a small room with an ultrasound technician that you hardly know! And we always need a reason to get together and party right? So I would have been happy either way but I must admit I did really want a girl. I posted a little poll on facebook and everyone was predicting a girl. I was preparing myself for it to be a boy, so when I cut into that cake and it was nothing but pink, I was overcome with emotion. I am so grateful that the lord has blessed our family with a daughter. I am also overcome with love and gratitude for all my friends and family who came to celebrate with us. Thank you to my mom, sister, and dad for all their hard working in getting the party planned and setup. I love you all very much and am so excited to welcome
Brighton Kay Polson to the world around December 31!
Our growing family


I asked them to smile...

I love that Keri's family dressed all in yellow to support us if was a boy or a girl! Cute idea!
