THE LIFE WE CAN’T WAIT TO SHARE
Adoption is already a meaningful part of our family story, as Tia’s brother was adopted. Seeing adoption woven into our own family has made this journey even more special to us.
We dream of sharing a life filled with love, laughter, faith, and everyday adventures. Whether we are cooking dinner together, spending time with family, going to church, traveling, or enjoying a quiet night at home, we try to make the most of the simple moments.
We cannot wait to welcome a child into our home and include them in the traditions, routines, and memories we already cherish. More than anything, we hope they always feel safe, loved, supported, and free to be exactly who God created them to be.

Have some Questions?
We love hiking during the summer and spending time outside whenever we can. Whether we are exploring a trail, going camping, or enjoying time with family and friends, we love making memories together and look forward to sharing those adventures with a child someday.
Christmas is one of our favorite times of year. Tia loves decorating the inside of the house, while Austin decorates the outside. We love spending the month of December with different family members and soaking in all the traditions that make the season feel special.
One Christmas tradition that means a lot to us is giving back. Tia’s side of the family does not buy gifts for each other, and instead donates to a local charity that helps children in foster care receive Christmas gifts and items they need. This is something we would love to share with a child because we believe it is important to help others.
Our favorite vacation spot has been Hawaii. We loved being near the beach while also having places to hike and explore. It is somewhere we would love to go back to someday, especially when our future children are old enough to enjoy it too.
