Hey guys, I'm trying to wind the story on down......I've decided who my next story will feature......Eliza Ambrel Siew.....though she isn't technically a Taylor, I feel that I could create a very interesting, happy, sad, dramatic, funny story for her college and adult years. Especially considering the way her life is shaping up now........visit my site often for new downloads!
Ok so this is the worst picture of me ever but what can I say? My name is Aiden Taylor and you may be wondering why the narrator has changed. My father has been diagnosed with alzheimer's. It's wonderful that we have this log of our family so that on his bad days he can look back over it and it helps him remember. He is doing well so far and loves piddling around in his garden. He has my mother there with him all the time and he isn't really in the bad stages yet. I decided that this was a good time to stop writing about our life and live it! But I didn't want it to end abruptly, my great-grandfather would haunt me every day if I let his work end badly! So I wanted to end with an update of all of the lives of this huge, crazy, Taylor clan.
Remember my cute toddler niece, Christa? Well Christa isn't so little anymore! Kasha and Craig are so proud of their little girl. She was growing up to be beautiful just like my sister.
Speaking of Kasha, her and craig welcomed a baby boy whom they named Tyler. She was hoping for a boy and since she got one, her and Craig decided that was enough for them. Craig had a boy to carry on his name and Kasha had a boy to spoil!
Jayla was still doing her modeling, most of which was for Rochella Jalise's designs. She had also branched out and was getting contracts from other companies. Here she is doing a layout for Le Mystere lingerie.
Kyler Dewayne had graduated and was working as a game developer. He was happily dating but was not tied to anyone exclusively. We all wondered how long that would last!
Rochella Jalise, Donte and Gabriella Elise decided that while they loved their home, it was getting a bit cramped. RJ was doing wonderfully with her store and Donte had been promoted to master architect for Pleasantview. Gabriella Elise was now a Hall of Famer and so they had plenty of money coming in and decided to buy a new house. Kyler Dewayne jumped on the opportunity to move into their old one and turned their party space into a room where he could test out his games.
This is the house that RJ, Gabby, Donte and the kids moved into. Gorgeous, isn't it? There was room for all of them to live comfortably and a huge back yard for the children to play in.
RJ loved the new home and took some time off from the store so that she could spend some time with her daughter Amara. She was looking for someone to manage the store while she was away. Her fashion show was around the corner and she didn't have the time to be at the store like she had before.
The new house had a built in sauna and Gabriella Elise made full use of it daily! She had recently asked her longtime boyfriend, Taj Erikson to move in with her. She wanted him to have a chance to get to really know her children and for them to get to know him. They still asked about their father from time to time and Gabby found this to be very stressful.
Madison had grown into a cute little girl who was very bright and inquisitive. She liked her mother's boyfriend and was happy when Gabby told her that Taj was moving in.
Matthew had some reservations where Taj was concerned. He seemed like a nice guy, but Matt wanted a relationship with his father. He had been bugging Gabby about it for a while and he hoped that he could meet him soon. His mother hadn't told them much about their father other than the fact that he wasn't ready for kids. But Matt knew that once he met them he would be ready.
Amara had grown into a beautiful little toddler and was most definitely daddy's little girl. Donte spoiled little Amara and gave her everything a child could want.
Taj Erikson was happier than he had ever been......at least that's what he told me when KD and I took him out to interrogate him before he moved in with my cousin and KD's sister!
AJ was still enjoying retirement but every now and then he would pull out his guitar and rock out to his old tunes. He is worried about my dad and is even thinking of moving he and Anna in with them. I told him that Christian Taylor would never agree to it and he knew it.
Arlen still had to pinch herself sometimes to believe that her life had come full circle like it had. She was so happy and glad that it all turned out well......she was a bit worried about Eliza Ambrel though.....
Here she is.....Eliza Ambrel.....EXCUSE ME, Ambrel was singing while AJ's old manager was visiting one day and he was knocked out by her voice. He immediately wanted to sign her to a deal and after AJ went over it with a fine tooth comb, Eliza Ambrel was now Ambrel and her first album was on the shelves. Despite her success, Ambrel decided that she wanted to go on to college and do her music and school. This made AJ and Arlen happy, but they worried about her outlook on life.....all of her songs, written by her, were about heartbreak and staying away from love.....seemed Kevin still had an influence on her....here's her first album cover.
Angela was still modeling, although she didn't do much modeling for RJ anymore. RJ understood and there was no bad blood between the two. Angela simply wanted to do more modeling for more well known designers. She still modeled for RJ from time to time though. Here she is in Michael Kors who Kelly tells me is a famous designer

.
Kyoshi was doing a great job at BGMH and was happy to get back to work after he and Angela took time off to celebrate their marriage. Healing the sick had become one of his greatest loves......second only to Angela.....
The two had found a routine that allowed them to both do the things they loved but also make the time for each. They had dinner together almost every night and Kyoshi still took Angela dancing.....there was even talk of a baby in the future. But not all of us were doing so well......
