More information about us from our adoption profile

We meet through mutual friends in 1999, and be came instant friends. During Marians mission we manage to keep in touch with each other and when Marian returned home we were inseparable. We truly love being married. We support each other in the things we both enjoy doing, and most of the time we share our interest together. Some of the things we enjoy doing together are: traveling, visiting with friends and family, fitness, walks with our dogs, sports, and teaching our primary class. We trust and relay on each other in all aspects of life and our marriage. With Christ at the head of our relationship our trust, love, loyalty, honesty, support, and friendship has keep our marriage strong. Aaron comes from a large family with five sisters and three brothers. Marian has two sisters one of which is her twin. We are very close to our parents and siblings, and they are extremely excited with our decision to adopt. As children we were able to spend a significant amount of time with our extended family. We believe that the good times shared with our childhood playmates was a huge part of our development and influenced our strong family values. To help our children develop close family ties we will encourage play and quality time with their many cousins. We are both fortunate enough to be able to work from home. Marian with her Childcare Business and Aaron with as a Loan Officer. As such, any child that comes into our family will have the benefit of both parents actively involved and around on a daily basis. Once we have a child of our own Marian's assistant will be working full-time so Marian can devote more of her time to our own family. Since we have lots of family members close by we will always be able to find a sitter during times of necessity such as temple attendance and date night.


My husband is a wonderful man. He is affectionate, loving, supportive, and playful. One of the things I love the more about Aaron is that he loves to teach others, especially children. It amazing to see him interact with children, he can relate to them in a way that is exciting. All of our nieces and nephews love being around him. He is a Christ-like man, and works hard at all that he undertakes. He enjoys sports, traveling, camping, staying fit, and spending time with family. He works as a Loan Officer, and because of recent changes within his company he is working from home. Aaron is going to be a wonderful father. His patience, love, exciting personality, and understanding of children is going to help him develop a beautiful relationship with our child(ren).

My wife is a caring and brave person. When Marian was eighteen she decided to join the church. Although she is the only member in her family, they have always been supportive of her decisions regarding the church. In 2002 Marian served a mission at the Salt Lake City Temple Square Mission and returned home a year and a half later. Marian loved being a missionary and she is excited to share her mission experiences with our child(ren). She has also been able, in just a short time, to create a thriving day care business which she operates from our home. It amazes me how she is able to balance the needs of several children at once while giving each the attention and love they need. Marian enjoys talking with her sisters and parents, rock climbing, music, dancing, and spending time with friends and family.
