We both have Bachelor’s degrees and are currently working on completing our Master’s degrees. We look forward to sharing our desire to learn with our children. 

We attend our local church and are new to the community. We love to do anything that’s active, and spend a lot of time outdoors playing with our pets and enjoying our large yard. Lisa loves spending time with her 23 year old Arabian horse and Casey loves golfing.”

They share, “Gracie is so perfect and she brings joy to our family each and every day. She was worth the wait and throughout our story a lot of little things happened that helped us to know that God had his hand in every piece of the adoption.

Thanks so much for helping us to add Gracie to our family, we cannot thank you all enough. She has blessed our lives in so many ways!  Thank you, thank you, thank you for the amazing work you do!”
