We want to share with you a little about our journey towards adoption. After getting married we went through two years of infertility treatments and are unable to have children biologically. However, adoption has always been a part of our family tree, and even before we knew we would struggle with infertility, we had expressed our mutual desire to grow our family through adoption some day.

We strongly believe that the universe had a plan for us, and that plan is to grow our family through adoption. In 2021 we adopted our daughter as an infant. It was such a beautiful experience and our lives have been forever changed for the better. We are excited to welcome our next child through adoption as well.

We have an unwavering commitment to creating a secure, affectionate, stable, and supportive household for our children.

Our families have known each other for many years. We both grew up in a small community where many of our friends and family were already acquainted, so it was very easy for us to grow into our relationship. Our fathers worked in the same industry and had much respect for each other. We were married on a beautiful August day surrounded by our closest family and friends. We welcomed our adopted daughter into our family March of 2021. She was adopted as an infant from Texas and is now 2 years old and asking for a little sister or brother!

We live in a cozy shore town and love spending time at the beach with friends and family. Brad is an avid surfer, Chelsea loves running on the beach and enjoy with family in the summer. In the Fall and Winter we love to take our dog Bogey up to the beach too. He loves to run and play in the sand. There is nothing better than having such a beautiful setting available to us anytime we want to go. We believe that growing up near the ocean will provide a peaceful and calming environment for a child. We were both raised blocks from the beach and we want to be able to give our children that same magical childhood we had.

We are both very active people who have many hobbies and interests. We enjoy house projects, entertaining friends and family, spending time on the beach, riding bikes, and traveling.

Our daughter, Melanie, has also started to love going fishing, going to the beach, taking bike rides in the evening, helping out in the kitchen cooking, walking the dog, going on trips and more. We can't wait to grow our family and continue to share all of these wonderful experiences.

Every summer, we travel to Cape Cod for two weeks to relax with family and friends. It is an annual tradition. We then take a ferry to the Hamptons and enjoy a long weekend before heading home.

We want you to know that family is our whole world. Everything we do, work for, believe in is done with our family in mind. Our life is not about us anymore, it is about our children. We want to give them the magical childhood you dream about, the best education, and let the world be their oyster. We'll always help them be the best version of themselves and know that there is nothing they can't do! We have a beautiful home, in an amazing community with family and friends nearby. We want to give that to another child and welcome a little sibling. There is no greater love!
