Ways to Announce to Family and Friends

Ingelly47

I was just wondering how people were planning on announcing the pregnancy to their family and friends.  I of course (this being my first pregnancy) have told my mom and family.

 I am due June 2nd and if all goes well my first trimester will be done on Thanksgiving.  We live abroad and are hosting a big party with all of our friends and co-workers and I cannot think of a better time to plan the announcement!  

 Anyone else have ideas on how they are going to break the news?
