We cant imagine what you must be going
through at this time. As we write this letter,we hope to ease some of the weight thats resting on
your shoulders, and that through this process you ndexactly what you are looking for.
We want you to know that if you choose us to be your babys
adoptive parents we will give everything that we have. We will
share with this child all the love and care and adventure that he
or she could ever ask for. We also look forward to getting to know
you and your family if that is what you choose, and talking about
what the future may look like together.
Thank you so much for looking through our family portrait,
and we hope that you consider us as adoptive parents for
your child. We would be so blessed to have that honor, and
thankful that you thought that we are the best t. Ifyou have any other questions about us and
who we are, we will be here to answer them
for you.

Kyle is a fantastic father. He
loves to be with his family over
everything else, and has fun
with River whenever they are together. He is a very hard
worker at both work and home. I am always amazed at allthe things he can accomplish when it comes to creating
and xing things. When Kyle sets his mind to somethinghe will do everything he can to make it happen. I admirehis determination and will, and hope that this gets passed
on to our children.
By Kyle:I like to garden and ride my bike in the summer.When it gets cold outside, I like to x up the house andread next to the re. Throughout the entire year I enjoy
being active with River and encouraging his creativity. Iam in the process of applying to Physical Therapy school
to get my doctorate in that eld. I love to travel and haverecently discovered viewing foreign countries from the
seat of a bicycle. There is no better way to meet the
people and see the countryside than from on top of two
wheels!

enjoying dinners out. Kyle and I love going to the zoo together as well as the many

Wyoming) we also do our best to explore elsewhere.As a family we have visited
Disneyworld and Disneyland and have done a bike trip together in France as well
as other areas of Minnesota and neighboring states. We look forward to taking
our children and family around the globe so they can see and experience all the
wonders the world has to offer.

We live in aw o n d e r f u l
community in eastern
Minnesota! It is a smallcollege town with
diversity of mind. Our
house is a beautiful old
house built in 1873 with
everything you could ever need. Our town has a great public
school system, which River will attend after he has completed
Montessori school.
Our town is a lively, close-knit and very active place. In thesummer there are always concerts, community groups and
a full roster of ever-changing activities to take part in. Our
house is very close to downtown and walking distance from
a wonderful new pool. We have a lot of friends in town and
enjoy all there is to enjoy in this fun little town!
Our Family Getaways: Erins parents own two vacation
homesone in Maui, Hawaii, and a old large cabin in the
Adirondacks, New York. We go to each place at least once
a year. Kyles family also has a wonderful second home inWyoming that we enjoy visiting. It is close to their home inColorado and a nice place to relax in the Wyoming Mountains.
We are lucky to be able to take family vacations at these beautiful
places which are all so different!

On Parenting
We want to instill adventure into our childrens souls! Together as a family, we will exploreand seek out all the wonders of the world. We travel often and love to have kids along.Seeing something in a new and exciting place is just so much more fun with your child at your
side! We constantly go places and do things with River. We go to the pool, the zoo, amusementparks as well as play dates with friends and going to the movies.
There are two parks within two blocks of our house so on days
together we go there often. There is always something fun to
do in our town and we rarely miss a chance to enjoy it.
We understand the importance of play and fun, and emphasizekindness and respect for others. Realizing the wonder andbeauty of life and being good to the people around youand
yourselfare the most important things! We love looking at life
through a childs eyes and cant wait to experience that with
our next child.
