Saving My Life

Meeting the Anderson Family

"Ok, so how did you find Taylor and Mackenzie?" "Well, I was at a store next to an adoption agency and when I came out, there was a bunch of fans waiting for me. It was Taylor's birthday and she was taking a walk at the park."

"She saw all the fans across the street and wondered what was happening. She came over and tried to get through the crown but someone didn't want that and they punched her in the face."

"Her nose started bleeding and by the time she got up there, I saw her with blood on her face. I called security on the phone and they came to help me. I grabbed her and ran to the range rover."

"I closed and locked the door and asked her what happened and she told me. I decided I wanted to adopted her and we went inside. She got her stuff and I signed the papers. When she came back down, I was officially her sister and we walked out together."

"Great. That's an awesome story. How did you find Zach, Skai, and Peyton, Taylor?" "I found Zach when I went to the park. I gave him my number and went back home." "I met Skai and Peyton when we went to the park for a "family day" and I saw them by the swings."

"I loved them on Jessie so I went to say hi. They said I looked perfect for their 3rd friend and we became friends from then on." "Another great story. Ari how'd you meet Sean and Alexa? Just kidding."

"So, how about a movie and the zoo?" "That sounds great. It's great weather outside. For 10:00 am." "Ok, I'll find a movie that's after lunch so we can get lunch after the zoo. The zoo until 12 lunch until 1 and a movie after lunch."

"Everyone go get ready and meet us outside." All the kids go upstairs to our room and get ready to have fun. We all go downstairs and outside. I put Kenzie in her stroller and we walk the couple miles to the zoo.

We decide to see Hotel Transylvania 2 after we eat at Subway. We go through the zoo, eating, and the movie before going home to prepare to chill for a while. "So we're flying to Detroit tomorrow to see Sean's family."

"Great. I haven't seen my family in a long time." "Ok, everyone get some wash up before dinner. It'll be ready in about an hour. It's going to be a huge feast for your going away." "Ok thanks." We all go upstairs to get ready and watch TV.

"Kids, breakfast is ready." "Ok." We go downstairs and to the dining room. Once again, breakfast is piled onto the table as we sit and enjoy the meal. We talk and laugh as we eat our last breakfast together.

After breakfast, everyone goes to repack their bags so we can be ready for tomorrow. We are leaving before breakfast and Alexa isn't coming because she lives across the street and she hasnt been home for nearly 3 1/2 months.

When everyone is done packing their bags, we go to the science museum, to eat lunch at Chipotle, and to the park before we go back home to swim. After everyone has gotten their swimsuits on, we all go to the pool.

Mackenzie has one of those 2-pieces with a skirt as the bottom. It's hot pink and like green. I think it is so adorable. After we are done swimming we go inside and wash up before dinner.

After dinner, everyone goes into the living room to watch TV and play games. We spend the rest of the night in the living room and mom goes up to bed after making sure everyone was comfortable where they fell asleep.

"Kids, wake up. We have a flight to catch." I wake up and find I am sleeping with half my body hanging off the couch. That was really comfortable. Surprisingly. We all wake up and say our goodbyes before leaving and going to the airport.

We arrive at the slow moving airport and check in. We walk down the long hallway, stopping at Starbucks to get coffee and juice for Kenzie. We sit and wait by the terminal for such a long time that Kenzie falls back asleep.

When the plane is finally ready, I pick up Mackenzie who was sleeping in a chair next to me and pull my suitcase with her little backpack on my back. We board the plane and I fall back asleep before the attendant even says instructions.

"Taylor, wake up we're going down!" "What?!" "The plane. It's going down. We're over a lake." "What do we do?" "Just get your little floatie thingy on and put Kenzie's on too." "Ok."

I calmly as I can take the floatie from the back of the seat in front of me and slide it over my head following the written instructions before doing the same to Kenzie. Right as I tighten the strip, the plane crashes down and I awake, panting.

Kenzie is looking at me like I'm crazy with her little 1 year old attitude. "Taylor are you ok?" Ariana asks, worried. "Yea. It was just a bad dream." "Oh ok. Were almost there. About 5 more minutes till we can get off." "Ok."

The plane has finally landed and we are getting off in cold Detroit. Sean has a light jacket on like the cold is nothing but it's like 48 degrees. All the girls are wearing ugg boots. Mine, Skai's, Peyton's, and Mackenzie's are black. Ariana's are brown.

Sean drives to his childhood home as we are all drinking hot chocolate from Starbucks. We finally arrive at his modern looking home. All white and black. (A/N I don't know what his house looks like either.)

We go up the sidewalk and Sean unlocks the door. We walk inside as Sean yells "I'm home." "Sean I've missed you. How are you?" "I'm good, ma." "How are you Ariana?" "I'm good Mrs.Anderson. How are you?" "I'm great. Thanks for asking."

"Who are these wonderful looking children?" Ariana introduces us and tells Mrs. Anderson how we all met. "Such wonderful stories all around. How would you like some breakfast?" "That would be nice." "Lets go to iHop." "Sounds great. Get the limo."

The limo arrives and we all hop in. The chauffeur drives us to iHop as we all talk in the back. We finally arrive at iHop and see that not a lot of people have decided to eat here. We get our table with no waiting and order. The food comes and we eat.
