Happy Birthday TayKay

This is a picture of my niece Taylor "Teacup"Rose. As strange as it sounds, because of the adoption dynamics in my family, Taylor was the first of the grandkids to join the Kearns Family even though Tyler is actually a few weeks older. She was the first of the nieces and nephews that I ever got to hold. I remember it was the week I was graduating from high school. As busy as I was that week, I was running around like a crazy person, I got a phone call from my brother that said there was an emergency at home and I needed to come home right away. I was kind of sad that week because my sister told me she wouldn't make it to my graduation because Taylor was just born two weeks earlier and she couldn't get away from California. Well after being scared and walking out of a play because I thought there was an emergency at home, I sped home only to find my entire family gathered together to introduce me to my first niece ever. I walked in and just cried as I held my niece for the first time. It was a special moment in my life and I will never forget it. Taylor Katherine Rose. I remember thinking that she was the most beautiful baby I had ever seen. We have always had such a great relationship as Taylor gets so excited to do anything girly and grown up. I took this picture after doing her hair really cute and putting a little make up on her. I miss Taylor when we are not together. I hope your dreams come true this year. I love you Tay Kay.

Oreos made from scratch

I made these tonight and they were really easy and really yummy. Although if anyone has a really good white frosting recipe I want it. This recipe was just alright. But the cookies are made from German Chocolate Cake mix and they are really easy the entire recipe took me about 30 minutes from start to finish. And they cool really fast.
Hopefully I will be blogging more now that finals are done. So stay tuned.

Tyler Man Rose

Happy Birthday. I love my nephew Tyler Marcus Rose so much. He remains my first love forever. The second he came into our family we created a bond that has been six years in the making and it is so strong. This sweetest little boy melts the hearts of all he comes in contact with. He is so funny and so endearing.

...Happy Sixth Birthday Dude. Mame Loves You LOTS!!!

Taylor is Engaged

Taylor Marsden (one of my best friends from high school) was just recently engaged to be married to Drew Thompson. Taylor Thompson...how cute. I am so happy for her now that she has found her Prince Charming. If you know Taylor, you know that she would never settle for anything less than an animated Disney movie ending, Happily Ever After to Taylor. If you have seen Enchanted let me just use that as an example of how this wedding will be. I love you Taylor and I am so glad that we have kept in touch all of these years.

Brother Snoop Dog?

I read this story on my friend Stephanie's blog. Thanks Steph.
I don't even know what to say however if you copy this link into your browser and then read it, you will also see that Snoop Dog has confirmed that he has converted to Mormonism.

Spring Break Part 4: Retail Therapy in Las Vegas

We were on our way home from Anaheim and in one piece. When we arrived Becca informed us that she had never had th opportunity to partake in all that is IN -N-OUT , so naturally where do you think we went for dinner? We stayed at my brother's house in Summerlin while they were still in California for Easter. The next day we headed to Henderson to have lunch with Becca's adorably posh and generous, salt of the earth grandparents. They live in the Anthem district of Henderson and took us out to the country club for a wonderful lunch for which I felt extremely under dressed once again. Then we headed back to their beautiful house to enjoy there pool and casita. It was a wonderful time to relax and talk. After our fun in the sun we headed back to Summerlin to get ready for our night on the town. There were two goals for the night. One was to go to H&M and the other was to go to Sephora. These are mine and Becca's favorite stores which we can't seem stay away from in New York when we are there. So it was only natural that we find them in the city of lights. We got back at about 1:00 in the morning and went to bed. Then we woke up the next day, went to breakfast at Original Pancake House, which is a family favorite of ours, and then drove home. It was so fun to just be with friends and have fun.
