Goodbye Party at Panera's

So a really good friend of mine Alex in our ward was moving to Texas so what better way to send her off then to throw her good bye party. Well any excuse to throw a party, and my name is written all over it! Jessica and I decided to twist things up a little bit, and do it at Panera instead of a house, and it was a hit! EVERYONE who was invited showed up, and the party lasted all night! Alex is such a good friend, and her and her Family will surely be missed. I will never forget that one day when Alex called me in a panic, she was in pain, 9 months pregnant, and needed someone to take her to the hospital, so I quickly left the park, and we were at the hospital in no time! She had never experienced contractions before and this was only her second labor, but being induced with her first one, she had no idea what they felt like! So when we arrived, and the nurses got her all situated, she was at a 3, and in labor. Her husband was in Sacramento, and was doing his best to get back before his child was born! I was there for her when she needed someone, when she was going through labor, when she got her epidural, and when it was time, husband made it and was there to take over! I was at the hospital until 2 a.m. and sweet kyle was born, healthy and happy! The bond I had with Alex set our friendship to a different level. She will truly be missed! Good luck in Texas girl, and don't forget to call us ''hot tamales'' every once in a while! :)
We meet up at Panera and chatted, and ate yummy cookies, and yummy cake pops all night! Thank you to everyone who came, you all made it very special for Alex, and she felt the love!


All of us fantastic girls


The yummy cake pops and cookies



We wanted to get her something, so I came up with this idea to go old school and make her a candy gram! It was so fun and cute!


The back side


It was kind of chili outside, and we could not get the heater on, so we had asked for some help after many attempts of trying on our own, but the funny thing is no one could get it to work, not even the guy who works there! It was pretty funny!


Me, Alex, Jessica
