actually begins way back in elementary school, in the same Grade 3 classroom. At the time, Mikayla’s hair was a rat’s nest, and Reid was rocking zip-off cargo pants. Life carried them in different directions for a few years when Mikayla switched schools. Despite this, their mutual friend’s msn account kept them connected. They were reintroduced in high school, a little older, vastly more awkward, and very quickly inseparable. From there, the rest is history: years of growing up together, laughing a lot, trudging through living in different provinces, loving our two cats and each other, settling into our neighborhood of Norwood Flats, and building the life we’re so excited to continue as partners.
