Dear Expectant Mother,
We admire your strength in choosing the right family for your child.
We cannot express our gratitude enough for making this difficult choice.
Thank you for taking the time to learn about our family. We hope that you will
see all the love, joy, and fun that fills our home & how excited we are to
grow our family!
With love,
Krystal & Bradley
Our Story
Krystal and Bradley met almost 15 years ago. They dated on
and off through their teenage years, but they both knew that their stories would collide and they would end up together. As fate would have it, Bradley proposed on a helicopter ride above the Chicago skyline in 2017. They married the following September. They had a beautiful daughter, Logyn, 3 years later. Krystal and Bradley can't wait to have a brother or sister for Logyn to grow up and make memories with. They've always dreamt of having a close-knit family.
Krystal is the most loving person I've ever known. She loves her friends and family with an unmatched fierceness. She would do anything for the people she loves. Krystal's been through a lot, and her resilience always shines through. She manages a dental office and runs her own business as a makeup artist. Whatever she's doing, her love of helping people is apparent. I always knew Krystal would make a great mother, but watching her become a mother has been more of an amazing experience than I ever imagined. Her huge heart has so much love to give and she is ready to have another child to share that love with.
A note about Krystal from Bradley
A note about Bradley from Krystal
Brad grounds me and our family. He is excelling in his career within the Union. He is the most driven man I know and will stop at nothing to achieve his goals. He lives to make my dreams come true - and that includes bringing another baby into our home through adoption (something I've always dreamed of). He is devoted to me, his family, and God. He makes those he loves his top priority. With him, there is never a dull moment because he is always trying to make everyone laugh. When they said "dance like no one is watching" - they were talking about him. This is a quality I hope he impresses onto our children; to teach them to seize the moment, be true to themselves, and love with everything they've got.
Our Family & Friends
Our daughter, Logyn, was born in March. We waited for what felt like forever to meet her, and she exceeded ALL of our expectations. She is the center of our world - sweet, easy-going, full of giggles, and we know she'll be an amazing sister when the time comes.
Logyn
Cheryl
Krystal's mom, Cheryl, lives in town. She is close by if we ever need her and she loves spending time with her grandchildren. Cheryl sings and plays the guitar. She can't wait to have another grandchild to serenade with music.
Trisha & Jeff
Bradley's parents, Trisha & Jeff, also live in town. They are very loving grandparents. Trisha watches Logyn twice a week and it is the highlight of her week! She adores Logyn and they both can't wait to have another baby to snuggle and spoil!
Amber & Al
Krystal's sister, Amber and her husband, Al live 30 minutes away. They love to stay connected by Facetiming and getting together for the Holidays. Amber can't wait to have another niece or nephew to shower with love.
Justin & Christa
Krystal's brother, Justin and his wife, Christa, live 30 minutes away with their 2 sons. They love getting together for Holidays and birthdays so their boys can play with their cousin, Logyn. They can't wait to for another child to join the cousin crew!
Julia, Maddie, Meghan & Kari
Krystal's friends are spread out all over Wisconsin and Illinois but it doesn't stop them from getting together often. Birthday celebrations, holidays and baby play dates keep them all in touch. They can't wait to have a new addition to take on adventures to the zoo or museum.
Our Furbabies
Ellie & Zeke
Ellie is the best dog ever. She's always excited to see us when we walk through the door and is very protective of our daughter, Logyn. She can't wait to have another babe to give kisses to.
Zeke is our cat. He's been with us for almost 10 years. He's super friendly and loves to lounge or have his belly rubbed.
We will always have pets in our home and look forward to sharing the joy of animals with our future child.
Our Home & Neighborhood
We live in Southern Wisconsin, where we enjoy hot Summers and snowy Winters. We love spending time outdoors. Our city has many beautiful nature parks to explore and we live near a lake. One of our favorite Summer activities is spending time on the water in our boat - fishing or just soaking in the sun.
What we love about Our Neighborhood
Our home is our comfort zone. It is warm, friendly, and inviting. It is always open to friends and family - for celebrations or just the daily happenings. We have a large fenced-in backyard with a deck that we love to hang out on. We can't wait for Logyn to have a brother or sister to play tag with!
What we love about Our Home
Fun Times Ahead
Our family loves traveling, exploring new places, and spending time outdoors! We will spend lots of time at beaches and on our boat, enjoying the sunshine. We will take day trips to Lake Michigan and as many state parks as possible, where we look forward to fishing, hiking, and camping together. We also love live music and can't wait to share its joy with our little ones.
We have family in Tennessee and plan to start a tradition of visiting once a year. We also look forward to taking our children to Disney World at some point. We've vacationed in tropical places around the world, and can't wait to show our future child all the beauty this world has to offer.
Our Values
We will always teach our children to treat others the way the want to be treated. They will know that all people are equal and deserved to be loved and respected. Our faith is very important to us and we will teach our children that God is always there for them, guiding and supporting them. Our children will know that hard work is necessary in life, but is also rewarded with fun and relaxation. 'Live life to the fullest' is our motto!
Our Promise
We promise to be open with your child about their adoption story and your incredible love for them. We will always be there for them, loving them and encouraging them to follow their dreams.
Thank you for learning about our family and considering us as a match for you and your child!
