Our Story
Hello! We are Nathan and Samuel. We are a family-first couple who enjoy spending time with our daughter and close family connections. We are moviegoers and event-goers (WNBA, concerts) and take trips into the mountains and forests in the surrounding areas for hikes. Some interests our family shares are gardening, building legos, gaming, board games, card games, and, of course, a fun dip in the pool with friends. We each have our own traits we thrive in, in our relationship. Nathan is a charismatic person who tends to reach out to form points of connection with Sam and friends. Samuel is a person with a lot of love and tenderness; he is so selfless and will put everything into each connection formed. Together we refer to ourselves as Yin and Yang, the perfect balance, where we fit into each other and complement each other's strengths and weaknesses.
Our Extended Family
Nathan's side of the family is truly unwavering. He has two brothers, the younger brother being his closest brother. His younger brother works and plays games and is a homebody; he has a tradition of coming to visit us during Christmas. Nathan’s parents reside in Minnesota. His mother’s hobbies are fishing, kayaking, snow shoeing, glass art creation, and hanging out with family. His pops (stepfather) lives at her side, doing everything they can together. Their third life companion is Finn, the most loving blue heeler. Nathan's biological father resides in California. Prior to retirement, he was part of the LAPD for 20+ years.
As a family, they go on vacation every two years. His mother puts it together, and we all go for 7-10 days to a resort. At Christmastime, we always FaceTime while opening gifts. On Thanksgiving, Nathan always cooks, putting on a full spread where all are invited.
Sam’s family is less supportive than Nathan’s. However, we do have one close relation, his mother. She has spent six years helping him raise Mia while Nathan was away with the Navy. She spends a lot of her time gardening, snow skiing, and spending time with family.

Our Home
We live in the beautiful state of Washington. In 2021 we purchased a condo that has an incredible view of the Cascade Mountains. The surrounding area is full of animals. We are walking distance from four parks, and the waterfront in our town is full of shops and green spaces. We love to sit out on our porch and enjoy our view as we talk for hours. Overall, it’s a very nice and friendly community to be a part of.
Our Journey to Adoption
With the inability to have biological children in our marriage, we would love to provide safety, stability, and love for a child that is not biologically connected to us. At first we had settled on surrogacy, but upon a deeper dive into surrogacy, we realized it just wasn’t the right choice for us. We knew we wanted children, no matter where they came from, and we know we are capable of raising them as our own. Ultimately, that is the reason why we chose adoption. Adoption would fulfill lifelong dreams for both of us in creating a family in our own space.
