About Us
We have been married almost 9 years and together for 14. We met through mutual friends at a restaurant shortly after Meagan moved to Dallas. We were both there to watch a football game and Jerry gave up his seat facing the TV so that Meagan could see the TV screen. His kindness immediately sparked Meagan’s attention. We ended the evening playing pool and really hit it off. We dated for 5 years as Jerry went back to school to pursue a second Bachelors degree. As soon as he graduated, he popped the question in the living room of Meagan’s apartment. We got married 7 months later at a bed and breakfast located in downtown Dallas. Our ceremony was small and intimate and Jerry’s best friend since elementary school officiated our wedding.
We welcomed our daughter, Claire Victoria, in 2019 after years of infertility and we thank God every day for her. Watching her grow, hearing her laugh, and teaching her things brings us so much joy. We so look forward to sharing those same experiences with another child one day!
Our relationship has always been fun and easy. We are truly partners and best friends, as cliché as it may sound. We love each others company and just about everything we do, we do together. We have had our share of hardships, like battling infertility, losing our son and Meagan’s brother, but we lean on each other for support and it has made our relationship stronger. We are committed to one another and to our family for a lifetime.
We are looking forward to growing our family through any of the following adoption opportunities:

EXTENDED FAMILY
Jerry's parents are divorced and both are remarried but we have great relationships with both sides. They all live nearby and we see one another a few times a month. They adore Claire and are fantastic babysitters whenever we need a night out! We celebrate holidays, birthdays, and many traditions together - including what we call "Jingle in June" which is Jerry's family's version of Christmas in the summer! We joke that our kids will grow up thinking that is a normal holiday and wonder why their friends don't celebrate it!

ABOUT OUR HOME
We live in a 5 bedroom, 4 bathroom house in the north suburbs of Dallas, Texas. Our home is bright, clean, spacious and in a beautiful community. We have a fenced in backyard and patio which has a lot of room to play! Our front porch has rocking chairs where we like to have sit and enjoy our coffee in the morning. There are 4 parks within walking distance from our house, as well as a city center with shops, restaurants, and a lake just a short stroll away. The elementary school is a few blocks down the street as well. Everyone is so friendly and the sidewalks are often full of people walking their dogs or going for a stroll.
