2 Big Brothers Our sons, Connor and Brayden, are such a blessing to us. They are both very funny, sweet and loving, but they do have different personalities. Connor is very outgoing and a friend to everyone! Brayden is a little shyer, but he is willing to jump into anything as long as his big brother breaks the ice! They are such great friends and really get along so well. They always give hugs and a kiss at bed time, and when Connor is dropped off at school. Connor attends a private Montessori school which he loves, and Brayden misses him the whole time he’s gone! Education is very important to us, and we strive to offer our children the best education possible through private schools. We hope to instill in them a love of learning and a desire to reach their fullest potential in all areas of their life. They both have a college fund already, and hopefully they will choose to take advantage of all the opportunities ahead of them.

Openness in Adoption
Connor and Brayden both know that they are adopted and we keep in touch with their birth parents often. Our relationship with our sons' birth parents didn't end at placement, but rather they just began. Our relationship with each of them is one of love, honor, trust and it is for life. Connor and Brayden's adoptions do have different levels of openness and we enjoy each one differently. We will be happy to discuss what your needs are and what level of openness you desire. We will respect your wishes and always follow through. We know that our sons are blessed by open adoptions. They will always know how much they are loved by everyone involved. And when they have questions about their birth parents, they can ask them directly. We love Connor and Brayden’s birth parents so much that words would only fail to describe it. It is truly a sacred bond we share with them.

Travel and Traditions Now that you know a little about our backgrounds, we’d like to tell you about the things we do together as a family and what kind of life we could offer your child. First of all, we have a strong and loving marriage. We are each other’s best friend and we do so much together. In the evenings, you will find us eating dinner together around the dinner table. On Monday nights, you could find us playing a game of Cootie on the living room floor for family night. We often have family and friends over for barbeques in the summer, or to roast marshmallows in the winter. We also go for weekend getaways and vacations quite often. We love to travel and do activities with our extended family and close friends. We often go to the family home in Colorado for ski trips during the winter, go to the sand dunes in the fall, and in the summer we often spend time on our house boat at Lake Powell or beach house in California. Occasionally we take a more exotic trip. Within the last few months we have gone to Hawaii. The boys had a great time and Connor wanted to live there. We also took Connor and Brayden on their first international trip. We went to Mexico City to visit close friends. It was exciting to watch our children discover a new culture. Within the next year we plan on spending time in Europe with the boys while we visit Jennifer's sister and other friends in Spain, Germany, and Italy.

Our Home
Our home is a favorite destination for our extended family because there is so much to do here. We live in a gated community at the end of a cul-de-sac and have neighbors with lots of children. We chose to build our new home here because of the great yard and the immediate proximity to the park. We have also created a yard that is ideal for kids. Our home is a place where children want to come and can have fun. Our three-year-old niece recently asked us if she could spend the night for five years so she could play a lot in our backyard! Our home is spacious and inviting with a warm atmosphere. In hopes of growing our family through adoption, we have already decorated a beautiful nursery that is ready to welcome a new baby, or even twins!

In Closing
We hope that we have given you enough information to get a little insight into our lives. We realize that you may still have many more questions. We welcome the chance to talk with you and answer all of them; even in person if you wish. Please Send us a message any time. If you should choose to entrust us to adopt your baby, your child will know that you love him or her and that because of you, we received our most cherished gift. Your baby will be loved beyond what words can express and we will be eternally thankful to you for the immeasurable joy that you have given us.

We wish you peace and strength in your decisions and we look forward to hearing from you.



With warmest regards,
Jason and Jennifer
