Michael & Becca

We are a young family of three that centers ourselves around faith and love. We prioritize time as a family and make a point to make memories from the simple joys in everyday life, while also loving a good adventure. We love to take advantage of Western Washington’s great outdoors! We can’t wait to share our lives with another child, and get to know you and your desires for them as well. Thank you so much for considering us.

¡Estamos deseando compartir nuestras vidas con otro niño o niña, y conocerlos a tú y tus deseos para ellos también! ¡Muchas gracias por considerarnos y Dios lo bendiga!

About Us

We’ve been married for 11 years and together for 15. We have a daughter named Kennedy who is 3 years old; we were blessed to adopt her from birth. We first met in college and were married the summer after we graduated. Our marriage has been one of our greatest joys, constantly learning to love each other deeper and more selflessly. We always wanted to adopt one day, so when we discovered our fertility troubles we didn’t hesitate to pursue adoption.

Together we love to play cornhole, Mario Kart, and do anything that takes us outside. We are members of a non-denominational Christian church and are active in the church community. We host a weekly Bible study group and have a strong support system of friends that have become like family. We love a balance of busy and rest, often enjoying a local adventure and then a day of rest at home to recharge as a family. We are true believers that there is joy to be found in the everyday moments of life, and time at home is just as precious as the exciting moments out exploring the beautiful nature we live near. You’ll often find us at park play dates, strolling our town’s quaint downtown, or snuggling up for a family movie night.

All About Michael... by Becca

Michael is a dedicated husband, father, and leader of our family. Michael has a personal relationship with Jesus Christ and prioritizes growing in his faith. He’s a project manager and estimator for a local home-remodeling construction company. As a dad, Michael is incredibly hands on. From the start, he was involved with diaper changes and the care of our daughter. He goes above and beyond to connect with Kennedy which often includes books, toys, and some giggle-filled games of hide and seek. He’s gentle, loving, and partners with me to meet her needs. He’s looking forward to teaching our next child all about the great outdoors, share his love of music, and teach them how to build things.

Michael has several hobbies, the most notable being music and hunting/fishing. Michael plays acoustic and electric guitar and enjoys writing his own music. He also loves fishing and hunting a few different kinds of game here in Washington. Ultimately, Michael’s kindness, leadership, and love anchor our family. He helps guide us towards deeper connection and provides relentlessly for our family.

All About Becca... by Michael

Becca is a loving wife and nurturing mother who loves God. Becca has one of the biggest hearts for kids and others. She was an elementary school teacher for 9 years before we were blessed to adopt our daughter Kennedy. Becca transitioned to being a stay-at-home-mom, and creates a social and fulfilling schedule for her and Kennedy during the week. She attends and is on leadership for a Mom group at our church, attends weekly Bible study, and coordinates play dates for Kennedy. As a mom, Becca takes care of Kennedy’s needs diligently and loves to teach her new things as she grows. She is patient, nurturing, and warm. She is looking forward to several things with our next child such as reading to them, exploring outside, and fostering creativity.

Becca’s hobbies are diverse, and she loves trying new things! She enjoys crochet, baking, weightlifting, biking, and going for walks. She also opened a small business selling hand-painted Bibles and tumblers three years ago. Becca’s unwavering love and dedication is the heartbeat of our family. I couldn’t ask for a better spouse and friend to help us navigate life as we look to grow our family!

Our Family

We have a 3-year-old daughter named Kennedy, whom we were blessed to adopt at birth! She is joyful and healthy. She loves to be read to, play outside, and is loving Mickey Mouse and Spider-Man! She is also super confident on her balance bike and loves zooming around our cul-de-sac.

We bought a home with Becca’s parents and are loving multi-generational living! Becca’s parents are extra close with Kennedy, and we spend a lot of family time with them during the week. We enjoy playing games, going for walk/bike rides, and having dinner together. Becca’s sister also spends weekends at the house and is an awesome Auntie to Kennedy.

We are also incredibly close with Michael’s family. His parents, and sister with her family, live 45 minutes away. We see them multiple times a month. Kennedy has 4 young cousins that we get together with often. Michael’s parents have a hobby farm, so we enjoy collecting eggs and visiting with their animals.

We spend holidays with our families and each side has special traditions and things we look forward to all year long. For example, the big Fourth of July parties on Michael’s parents’ farm and annual Christmas ornament decorating with Becca’s family. All of our family has been incredibly supportive of our adoption journey, both with Kennedy and of course now! They are just as excited to lovingly welcome our next child into our family.

Home Sweet Home in Western WA

We were both born and raised in Western Washington and love living in the Pacific Northwest! Our large home has two main levels; Becca’s parents occupy the top floor and we occupy the bottom. We each have our own kitchens, living spaces, bedrooms, and entrances. We have a large fenced-in yard with a quaint gazebo and a firepit too. Our neighborhood has a community park and playground that we enjoy walking to and playing on. We live on a quiet cul-de-sac that’s perfect for walking and riding our bikes. We are under 20 minutes to the local hospital, grocery stores, and many amazing restaurants.

Western Washington has an overall mild climate with soft season changes. This means we can take advantage of the outdoors pretty comfortably all year long. We are minutes from ocean beaches and lakes, with a little longer drive to some mountain trails. We have so much to do in our area and we usually take Saturdays to explore and revisit some of our favorite spots.

Our Promise

We have SO MUCH love and joy for the next child that joins our family! We promise to love them unconditionally, support their ever-changing needs, and nurture their desires as they grow and develop. We promise to make sacrifices that will only benefit our family and provide a stable financial upbringing. We will prioritize a strong education and keep both the present and future in mind as they learn and grow. We also promise to honor and respect you as we share their adoption story with them, and share it when they’re young so they will always know about you.

We’d love to talk or answer any of your questions. Please call or text Lifetime at 1.800.923.6784.

In Closing

Thank you for the opportunity to tell you about our life and our hearts to adopt again! We would love to get to know you and the hopes and dreams you have for your child. If you'd like, we're open to creating an open adoption to stay in contact as your child grows up. We may not know each other yet, but we are already praying for you. We are thrilled to be growing our family again and cannot wait to share our lives with them!
