Today we got up bright and early to complete everything on our to do list before it got too hot outside. We ventured to the farmers’ market where we picked up some fresh granola and fruits for the week before heading to breakfast. After breakfast we headed to the bookstore for some birthday presents. While wandering through the children’s section, Wyatt came across this book and insisted that we bring it home. He remembers reading this book over and over again at bedtime growing up and it is one of his favorites. We both strongly believe in instilling a love of reading at a very young age and have been steadily adding to your library every time we go to the bookstore. We can not wait until we get to share all of our favorite stories at story time.

Swimming in Wyatt’s parents’ backyard pool.
We are huge Harry Potter nerds. I have read all the books and Wyatt is finally working through the books after falling in love with the movies.
Grilling out in the backyard with friends and their kiddos.
We love to sit outside on our patio while drinking a cup of coffee and listening to music. As you can tell from our mugs we’re big nerds!
We love going to old school arcades and challenging each other to get the highest scores.
Always learning. While on vacation to the beach, we took some time to learn about sea turtles.

Sarah F, Sister in law
" I am Amanda's sister and law and have known Amanda for 15 years. She is not only my sister, but one of my closest friends. Amanda and Wyatt have been praying for a little one to complete their family for years. They are the only ones we trust to watch our two children, N and J, for date nights or for weekend trips because we know that they are safe, well taken care of and loved. They will provide a wonderful loving home, and already have their nursery ready for the little one they are awaiting. Wyatt and Amanda will make amazing parents and have a tremendous support system on both sides of the family and we all cannot wait until they are able to finally complete their family. "
