Charles Wesley Taylor made his appearance into the world on Wednesday, July 6, 2011 at Seton Hospital in Austin. “Charlie” was eight pounds, 11 ounces and 21 inches long. He is the son of Franny Vandervoort and Josh Taylor of Austin, formerly of Buda. He is welcomed by a host of family members including Buda grandparents: Patricia Vandervoort, Valerie and Jim Corry and Holly and Terry Taylor. Great grandparents are Anne Collins of San Antonio, Jim and Linda Stavlo of Buda, Ted and Marilyn Swindle of Amarillo and Merle and Dale Taylor of Bastrop. The Buda “grands” would love to have Charlie move his family back to Buda.
