Meet our

"we have so much love to give and a great support system." - Sarah

Dogs or cats?

"Dogs." - Javier

Favorite season and why?

"Caroline and I both love the fall. The way the air smells in the evening, sitting around a fire pit with friends, days at the local apple orchard or pumpkin patch. We love the colors of fall and the excitment felt of the upcoming holiday season where we decorate and celebrate and spend time with loved ones. We also love fall because our favorite "holiday" takes place... HALLOWEEN! Every year for Halloween, we host a big party for our friends and their families. Children of all ages attend and everyone must wear a costume! There are activities for children such as scavenger hunts, pumpkin decorating, and a pinata! Our friends tell us every year how their children look forward to this party. Caroline and I spend weeks planning a theme and decorating, as well as coming up with new activities for the guests. This is by far our favorite party of the year." - Jacquelyn

If I could change one thing about the World, it would be...

"How we all treat each other." - Elliot

Dogs or cats?

"Dogs, but only because our dog Melvin would be very upset to hear me mention cats! I grew up with both and love dogs and cats so much. When I was little I wanted to be a veterinarian and told my parents that I would be a better person if I had a cat. I was only 5 at the time, but they both swear that I was indeed a better, nicer person when I got a cat!" - Stephen

My neighborhood is a good place to raise a family because…

"There are a lot of young families. Our neighborhood has two great playgrounds, three pools, and a lot of open space for running around." - Aaron

My best friend would describe me as...

"Nerdy, someone that puts others before himself, and way too nice." - Carlos

What scares you?

"Not accomplishing what I want out of life. There are so many things to achieve and so many places to go. The future may be scary, but it is also exciting." - Kevin

My neighborhood is a good place to raise a family because…

"We live in a small but vibrant town. There is a robust downtown with lots of shops and restaurants balanced with a large park network, green spaces, and an incredible community pool. Our home is in a peaceful neighborhood on a dead-end street that feeds into a playground, community garden, and a lake with a hiking trail." - Joey
