Your child will be raised in a loving and supportive family and extended family. We promise to keep your child as safe as possible, happy, healthy and most of all, we will provide constant unconditional love.

They will be raised to know about you and your family if that is your wish and we would welcome that!! The love between your family and ours will be unconditional. We will share photos and milestones of your child with you and your family on a regular basis if you choose.

Krista's testimony

I was raised in a Catholic family. I would attend Catechism classes on Wednesday nights. Sundays I would go to church with my grandparents. As I got older and life happened if not able to make it to church prayer is still very much apart of my life. I practice in my own personal way. God is a big part of my life and look for his guidance daily.

about our home

We live in a small town with lots of parks, a beach, and a few small shops and an ice cream shop downtown all in walking distance from our home. Our home has three bedrooms, one bath, three season porch and a large fenced in backyard. We live close to our families. We fell in love with our home the very minute we stepped foot inside. The open floor plan makes everything so cozy. Our house is not just a house but our home. Krista's favorite thing to do is decorate the outside of our home. Between the antique tricycles, wagons and pedal car to the windmills that have paintings on the blades. Holiday decorating is one of our favorite things to do. Christmas is one of our favorites. All the twinkling lights and inflatable decore.

We love to decorate our house at Christmas time.

We have a lot of wildlife that comes to visit our yard even living in town.

We have a bird feeder on our front window for the birds to give our cats some entertainment.

We have a pumpkin patch in our back yard. We plan to try and grow other things too.

about our world

We love spending time together but look forward to adding a little one to all of our adventures. We like to travel to different states and seeing God's wonders of the world. Spending time with family is very important to us. We both have lost grandparents lately and don't want to miss out on spending time with family. We have traditions of going to Door County for each season, camping with family, Holidays and just being together.
