Frankie & Kelli

Hello! We are grateful for your consideration in being parents to your baby. Our family is ready to grow, and we would be honored to be part of your journey. We are happy to share a glimpse into our fun-loving life! We cannot wait to share all the things we love, like the great outdoors and traveling with you and your baby.  Thank you so much for taking the time to get to know us!

About Us

We have been married for almost 10 years after meeting at work.  Together, we love spending time with our dog Ziggy, playing card/board games, cooking, spending time with family and friends, and watching a good movie. We also enjoy spending time outside fishing, swimming, boating/camping, and on cruises! We are excited to add our child to these adventures! We look forward to family meals, game nights, and cuddling up on the couch together while watching a movie. We prioritize taking one big vacation every year, and we can not wait to share those memories and create new ones with our child so we can see the world through their eyes.

We always knew we wanted a family soon after getting married, and after struggling with infertility, the Lord opened the door to adoption, and we are so incredibly thankful. Growing our family through adoption is so exciting, and we consider it a gift to be walking this journey. We cannot wait to share our love for Jesus, adventures, learning, reading, the outdoors, and so much more with our child!

About Frankie

Frankie is known as the fun uncle, and kids absolutely adore him. He is truly selfless and will drop whatever he is doing to help! Frankie works as a Correctional Sergeant with a local prison. He enjoys motorcycle riding, fishing, swimming, boating, and traveling. You will often find him outdoors in nature or working on projects.

Our Home in North Carolina

We live in a small community outside of town. Our home is in a family-friendly area surrounded by parks, schools, churches, restaurants, and even a beach. We live in a 4 bedroom 3 bath home that has plenty of room to grow our family. We love that our home is located in the country where it is quiet and peaceful! There is plenty of space to ride four-wheelers, bikes, swim in our secured above-ground pool, play with our chickens, and explore on our 11-acre property.

Our Family

Quality family time and family values are extremely important to both of us. We are not only close residentially to some of our family, but our relationships are very close! We often spend time with both families going on vacations and or having cookouts. Our families and friends are both so excited to welcome our child into their hearts and close-knit circle. All are supportive of our decision to adopt and will provide all the love and support for our child to thrive in.

Just a few traditions that we share with our families are:

• Celebrating every holiday together
• Sunday dinners after church
• Fishing/Camping trips
