My First Best Friend!

So today I opened a Dove chocolate today and it said "Always remember your first best friend" and since my first best friend's birthday was a week ago I thought I would play a little tribute to her!

So Samantha Jordan Kennelly this is all for you!

We met a zillion years ago or rather 14 or 15 I don't know anymore it seems like forever ago. We lived one block away from each other.  We met because her dog Jack got my dog Lucy pergo... and thank God! 

Sam and I clicked right from the start, we went to daycare and grade school together till I moved to Arizona for the first time! But even with 1640 miles we stayed best friends. I went back every summer, she came out here a couple times, and I went back for many spring breaks. 

Then the most Amazing thing happened and I moved back to my best friend, and not only to the same state but to the same block. It was like time never happened and we were right back to where we left off. 

We then went to High School together, we drove together almost every day, and the last year we did theatre together so we spent lots of time together and I'm so glad for her. 

Last year a lot happened to me, I found out I needed brain surgery and Samantha Kennelly was by my side the whole time from start to finish of the whole thing. Anything I needed she was there for me. And I would do the same for her. 

So in honor of Sam's birthday here are 18 reason's why I love her

1. She always puts other's first 
2. I always feel safe when she is driving (Thank you for always driving me)
3. She is there for me whenever I need her
4. She is a very talented actress
5. She is so smart
6. She has a heart of GOLD
7. She loves her family so much
8. Whatever she deciedes to do in life she is going to be AMAZING at 
9. She loves Milk as much at me
10. She will eat any desert with me, or try any that I make
11. The good way to her heart is a muffin for breakfast
12. I loved having my first "real" job with her it was such a fun summer
13. One of my favorite parts of senior year was watching One Tree Hill with her and Nick
14. She has amazing hair
15. Even with heals on she is still taller then me
16. Most of my first childhood memories are filled with her and I would not want it any other way
17. She understands me
18. She is not only my Best Friend but my SISTER too 

 So Samantha Jordan Kennelly I love you more then words can say and my life would not be the same without you and one day soon we will live near each other or maybe someday in your parents house like we always planned and now we can use the new fancy kitchen to make Mac and Cheese and eat Ice Cream!

Mr. Style

The little man got his first tie on Saturday so we (meaning me!) took lots of pictures on Sunday after church! He looks so big I can't stand it! I'm not ready for him to be a little boy he is suppose to stay my baby :(. I told him today that as long as he still gives me kisses and hugs and lets me call him my baby he can become a toddler (which he already is). But oh how cute does he look?!?!?! So grown up!

We are getting very excited Grammy and Papa will be here on Thursday! Now if someone would only say Grammy it will be perfect!

Homemade Peanut Butter Cups

Here is a step-by-step process to make homemade peanut butter cups! They are so yummy and very easy!

You Need

1. Peanut butter
2. Chocolate (I used a mixture of semi sweet and milk chocolate chips!)
3. Cupcake tins (I used mini ones but you could do big ones)

You kind of just use small bits then add to it because it depends on how many you are making or the size!
But this is so easy and you can take as long or as little bit of time you need!

Using a pastry bag pipe chocolate into tins make sure to go up on the sides but don't fill it all the way. Just about half way or maybe a little less

Freeze till hard

Put some peanut butter into a bowl and microwave just till its soft (about 20 seconds)
If it gets a little to soft add a little more peanut butter

Put small drops of peanut butter on top of chocolate make sure to not go over the chocolate on the sides of the tin
freeze again till hard

Put chocolate on top of the peanut butter
You can now make this as high as you want
Freeze again

ENJOY!
