Fancy isn’t our norm, but we love to dress up every once in a while!
We are mountain bikers in training, although trying to learn something new and adventurous.
Rainbow confetti, for pride and our beautiful wedding.
My best friend would describe me as...
Dependable, strong-willed, loyal and fun.
-Mackenzie
Do you consider yourself religious or spiritual?
Spiritual!
-Robyn
Favorite season and why?
Fall! I love the leaves changing and not sweating so much when I’m outside.
-Robyn
Complete the sentence, “I can’t live without……”
Music and Lucas! Also, friends and family. I love my social outlets.
-Mackenzie
Our engagement!
Our dog Lucas is our pride and joy!
We spend every 4th of July at the lake with Mackenzie’s family!
If I could choose one type of food to eat for the rest of my life, it would be:
chicken tacos!
-Robyn
What scares you?
Uncertainty, and water chestnuts!
-Robyn
What is the best word to describe our family?
Quirky.
-Mackenzie
My philosophy on parenting is...
to create a safe, nurturing atmosphere to encourage a child to become wholly and authentically themselves.
-Robyn
Complete the sentence, “I can’t live without……”
sunshine, our dog Lucas, and adventures to the mountains.
-Robyn
My favorite place in the World is...
home, with Mackenzie and Lucas.
-Robyn
If you had to live on an RV or sailboat for the rest of your life, which would it be?
RV! I’d love to travel to the mountains and drive place to place!
-Robyn
If I could choose one type of food to eat for the rest of my life, it would be:
Tacos.
-Mackenzie
We are the best choice because…
We are in no rush, but we are ready. We are ready for our family to grow, not just by a child, but by a whole new family lineage, traditions and love.
-Robyn
Dogs or cats?
Dog! We adore our baby Lucas.
-Robyn
I'm super competitive when it comes to...
Everything.
-Mackenzie
When we argue, what’s it about?
We don’t argue really, but when we disagree, it’s usually about me wanting a relaxing day and Robyn considering “a short 4 mile walk” relaxing!
-Mackenzie
What’s the first thing that comes to mind when you look at the night sky?
Peace! I’m an early bird, and I love the quiet and peace of early mornings and dark starry skies!
-Robyn
What is the best word to describe our family?
Loving. Second best - light-hearted!
-Robyn
In five years, our relationship with our birth mother will...
familial. Our dream is that adoption can grow our family, not just by a child, but also by the family and history they bring with them.
-Robyn
Dogs or cats?
Dogs! Robyn had convinced me to get a cat when we first moved in together, but then a friend found Lucas and was looking for a home for him. Thank goodness we returned the cat litter for Lucas!!
