Anybody tell your extended family at a party about preg?

Just wondering how you told them.  There are a number of our family members that know that we're pregnant - some know everything, some think we're just having one - but it's getting really, really hard to hide now (I'm pretty big already).  So, we're going to tell both sides this Sunday at Easter.  I'd like to make it a little special rather than just saying "hey everyone we're pregnant", but I'm having a hard time figuring out how.  Any suggestions are much appreciated!

  • We put words individually in Joshua's easter eggs that he would have to put the sentence together for that said "You are going to be the big brother of twins!"

  • It was the great-grandparents to-be's 65 wedding anniversary party and their card said on the outside"You have been Mr and Mrs for 65 years. How about some new titles" then inside the card "Great-grandma and Great-grandpa". Then we signed it our names and the twins. It is their first great-grand children so it worked out great for us.

  • We did!  Most of the family there knew we were going through IVF, and it was my Grandmother's birthday party picnic.  I had my DH go around and take some pictures of people, and then went over by him and said (loudly), hey, can someone please take a picture of the four of us?  When people (including my mother, who already knew) looked confused, I gestured back and forth to DH and I and said "You know, the four of us?".  My aunt was the first one to shout out, OMG it's twins!!!  She's saying it's twins!  It was a great moment, and my Grandma was thrilled we announced it at her party (she had insisted,lol).
