Double Dad Birthday

9/27/2015

Welcome back to Taylor Talks!

Happy birthday to my dad! Wow, today was a fantastic day, and everything really turned out well for our little party!

I made cupcakes and cake pops, both of which were a hit with everyone. I also made roasted potatoes, and my dad grilled dogs and burgers on his new grill. That was actually his big surprise birthday present: a new grill!

Our grill in New York had been really old, so we threw it out before the move. We've been without a grill for over two months, which has been rough for the whole family, but especially for my dad. He loves grilling; he even used to grill in the snow!

Our new neighbors were here for a few hours and they seemed really nice so far. The kids got along wonderfully, and had a great time playing with each other. Everyone enjoyed swimming in our pool before we sat down to eat the amazing bar-be-que feast that my dad had prepared. There were hot dogs and hamburgers, and then he had cooked roasted potatoes that I had prepared. Everything was so delicious!

The dad in the family next door celebrates his birthday the day after my dad, so we ended up celebrating both birthdays. The kids got a kick out of the fact that we put a candle in two cupcakes for each of the birthday boys.
Overall, we had a really nice day with some good company. I feel like we could have a nice neighborly relationship with these people. I guess we'll just have to see what happens.

​Thank you so much for your continued support! I look forward to sharing more stories about my experience with foster care, and hopefully hearing from readers who have questions or similar stories to share. I'm always willing to answer questions and hear about other experiences! Please don't forget to like and share my Facebook author page as well!

I’d greatly appreciate it if you would share this blog with friends and family through your favorite social media sites. If you’re sharing on Twitter, don’t forget to tag me (@TayTayK02) and use the hashtag #TaylorTalks.

Thanks!
Taylor

    My family started doing foster care when I was three years old. We took in nineteen children over the course of eighteen years, with our last placement leaving in December 2014. I'm the only biological child in my family, though my parents adopted five of my siblings.

    I love to share my perspective on the foster care system and share how my unique upbringing shaped my life.

    I'm also a Cast Member at Walt Disney World and lover of all things Disney! My career allows me the opportunity to find a little bit of Magic in life every day.


    I enjoy sharing my journey as a writer as well. Find my children's books on Amazon and keep following my blog for updates on future books that I'll be releasing!
