Pink and Green PANDA Party! :)

So yesterday we celebrated Emilynn again with a fun panda party. We decorated with bamboo and pandas and polka-dots! It was a blast. We had some extended family and close friends join us. It has been such a blessing to celebrate Emilynn this week! I want to thank a few people...First, My MOM, OBAA, you were amazing!  Thank you for ALL of your hard work with food preparation and EVERYTHING you do all the time!  You are a blessing.  Thank you Dani for letting me borrow the Cricut!  The pandas and everything were so special and I had a blast learning how to use it!  Thank you to Lori for the black food coloring!  Without it, I wouldn't have such a great panda cake!  It takes a village, y'all!  Thanks to all of our guests who made the day special and celebrated another life in this Kingdom.
