I'm in between two sisters that I have a crazy connection to. Sister #1 (darker hair) is Kristi Prior. I knew her my first year of college, we were roommates. One weekend, Kristi's little sister Alison (in the black) - came to visit. School ended and we all lost touch. 6 years later when I moved to Canada - I ran into someone who looked familiar. It was Alison. Jon Lee, one of Darren's good friends married her and immigrated her to the North as well. She's reigns supreme on the throne of my "Tier One" friends here. This weekend, Kristi came to visit with her husband and adorable kids and we all got to catch up over brunch at the Banff Springs. It was great catching up! And yes, Kristi looks exactly the same - still beautiful. And it's been.... wait for it... 16 years.

June in review
Yeah - school is finally out. June 26th was the last day of school and we celebrated. We took the girls out for sushi and to Kung Foo Panda. We had a fun night and the girls were very excited about their date. They love sushi and spending time with dad. Both girls did well in school but, we are happy it's finally summer. School year is painfully long and the summer break is painfully short here. We go back in only 6 more weeks.This is the best first grade teacher in Canada. Ms. Campbell (now a married Mrs. Frye) was Cala's teacher this year and she couldn't have been better. She was one of those fantastic teachers you hope your children get. We're crossing our fingers she sticks around for the other two Taylors to hit Grade One. Thanks Mrs. Frye.
The mistro plays on. The end of the school year
also brought the end of the piano lessons. Cala had a recital and wow - did she ever rock on those ivorys. She played 4 songs and was only a little bit nervous. We got there in plenty of time for her to warm up and relax a little. She was great! I loved actually attending a recital I didn't have to play in.
Happy Father's day. Here is a 3 generation family photo. Darren, his dad and our Connor. We had a great Father's day. Darren got lots of attention... probably too much. Both girls said the most fun thing about dad is wrestling with him. They all love a good beating.
