We met in college through a mutual friend who insisted we were perfect for each other. He was right! We became best friends and were inseparable from that first moment. We knew marriage and children were in our future and fifteen years later, we’ve built a strong, happy marriage as our love for each other continues to grow every day. We seem to complete each other in wonderful ways. While Pete is more practical and keeps us grounded, Traci is more spontaneous and ensures that we live in the moment. We’re both silly and fun and thoroughly enjoy life.

Adopting Brendan and becoming parents has been a dream come true. We LOVE being parents! It’s the most important role, most work, and most fun in our lives. But we feel there is a special someone missing... another little angel to share all the joy, love and blessings we have found in our life together.

As a family, we enjoy the simple pleasures in life like taking walks and exploring the wonders of nature, having a picnic at our favorite park, playing games, reading books, and just relaxing with lots of friends and family around. We also like to travel and can’t wait to include another little one in our adventures -- to show and teach them about the world as they grow and learn.

We both have flexible jobs which allow us to work from home often and gives us lots of family time. Traci looks forward to taking time off and being home everyday with the arrival of a second child. We want to give our children all the opportunities and fun childhood we had, plus so much more!
