We met on a dating website in June of 2010 after many emails, texts and phone calls. It didn't take long for us to know we wanted to spend the rest of their lives together. After just 5 short months, we were engaged and less than a year later we were married. In our 10 years of marriage, God has blessed us with 2 children of our own that we were never able to hold this side of the womb. We have never given up hope to someday raise a child and give them a loving family.
We are blessed to have a son (from adoption through foster care) from Scott's first marraige. Jonathan James, aka JJ, is excited to have a sibling. He feels he could help them understand any feelings they may have about adoption when the time is right. Our extended family is VERY excited for this next step in our marriage and can not wait to be a part on this child's life.
Heather grew up in a small town in Michigan. She is the youngest of 5 siblings. She lived in the country and raised all kinds of animals. Her parents owned a business in the local town; therefore, she has always been very active in her community. She has always been involved in anything artistic, like playing the violin, singing, decorating, painting and crafts. Family has always been very important to Heather and she never misses the annual family reunion.
Scott also grew up in a small town in Michigan. He is the oldest of 3 children. His parents divorced when he was young, so he lived with his dad and oldest sister. He was a 3 sport athlete in school playing cross country, track and basketball. A year after high school, Scott enlisted in the Navy. He was stationed in Norfolk, Virginia and served as a Chef on a submarine.
