We have SUPER EXCITING news!
We are adopting a child!
We are beyond grateful and doing everything we can to be prepared to welcome a beautiful new life into our home.
As part of our adoption process, we have started a crowdfunding campaign. It may surprise you to hear that adoption-related costs can easily total up to $35,000 or more. This is why we have set a goal of $15,000 with AdoptTogether to help overcome the financial barriers that often overwhelms adoptive parents. Donations are tax deductible.
We hope by inviting you into our process, you will see yourself as part of the community we wish to build around our child as he/she grows up.
Most importantly, we ask that you begin praying for our family as we take this leap of faith.
Follow along for updates.
Thank you for your love and support as we strive to build our family.
Kindest regards,
Chad & Ashley

We completed our homestudy. It was a positive experience. We’re excited to see progress with our journey.
We’ll move to the next step over the next 6 weeks as paperwork is processed.
Thank you for the continued prayers, calls/texts, and overall support.
We greatly appreciate it!
Sincerely,
Chad and Ashley
