More About Our Family |
---|
Our Special Interests | We love making new memories and traditions as a family and love being parents. We love traveling and take many family vacations. We enjoy seeing new attractions and experiencing new cultures. We are a family that loves the outdoors--hiking, swimming, ice skating, building snowmen and sand castles, and playing in the backyard to name a few. We enjoy spending time with family and friends and hosting barbecues. Mike loves grilling, smoking meat in his smoker, and making homemade pizza. Brittany enjoys spending time in the wood shop where she makes many neat signs, puzzles, and decor items. She participates in local craft fairs. We always look forward to family movie nights with popcorn and ice cream sandwiches as well as playing board games, reading, and having dance parties.
|
Our Faith | We are a couple that loves Jesus, and our faith is the center of our lives. We believe a strong marriage and stable family comes from a solid foundation in Christ. We attend church regularly and participate in weekly Bible studies. Brittany also volunteers in the nursery and toddler programs. We have a wonderful church family! We will teach our children about Jesus and the wonderful plan he has for their lives.
|
Our Musical Interest | Although we may not be very musically talented, our boys think we are great singers. We enjoy singing loudly in the car and listening to many different genres of music. We are fortunate to live close to Brittany’s brother who plays multiple instruments and writes and records his own songs. He even let us record our own song for our wedding, which all the guests loved!
|
About Our Home | We built our dream home and just moved in! Our five bedroom home is located in the country where we get to experience all four seasons to their fullest. Our boys love playing in their new playroom. We live in the country where there is plenty of room to build forts, ride bikes and 4-wheelers, play on the swing set, and just have fun! We love that our home is within walking distance of multiple family members including Brittany’s dad, brother, sister-in-law, nephews, and aunt and uncle. Our boys love playing with their cousins and we are happy they are all able to grow up together. We are fortunate to have an indoor basketball court where our boys can pursue sports if they choose. Also part of our home is our Golden Retriever Bernie who loves people, chasing tennis balls, and swimming.

Our Children | We have been blessed to adopt both our boys and it has been such a joy to watch them grow and learn new things each day. Tyus is full of energy and gives the best hugs! He loves to play outside, read, ride his 4-wheeler, and build things with his dad. Decklan is a very happy little boy who is always smiling. He loves puppies, going for walks, and bath time. Both boys love being around other kids. We are excited for Tyus and Decklan to be big brothers to a new baby!

Our Neighborhood | Our immediate neighbors are family members. We are blessed to be surrounded by so many people who love and support one another. Living on 80 acres of land allows us to be active and enjoy nature. Located on the property is a fenced in field that is home to two horses and a mini pony who are all very friendly. Located one mile down the road from our home is a beautiful lake where we swim at the beach, build sand castles and go boating. Our neighborhood also has many beautiful nature trails, bike paths, and parks. We enjoy taking bike trips to the ice cream and root beer station in the summer. Our home is a ten-minute drive from town, our church, and school. Our community is very safe and a wonderful place to live.
