Letter

We love our family.
Our Letter to YOU

Adoption may seem scary... but we have learned it is wonderful.


Even though we don’t know you yet, we feel the deepest love and true admiration for you for considering adoption for your precious child. Adoption seemed scary at first, but we have learned it is wonderful through adopting our sons. We love being parents and also love the relationship we have with our boys' birth moms.

About Our Family

We have been married for eleven happy years.


We love each other and our boys.
We have been married for eleven happy years. We met while attending Brigham Young University and were close friends before dating. After a year of dating, we were married on New Year’s Eve 2010 in the Draper, Utah Temple.

Tara is that friend that makes you want to be a better person. She is loyal to and sincerely loving of others. The boys adore their mother.

Scot is a very hard worker. Yet, he knows how to balance the priorities of life and leaves his work at work. He has learned how to build quite the train track since becoming a father.
About Our Boys

Our boys have different personalities, but are both so fun.


Our boys are the best!
Reid is a happy, funny, caring, observant, and patient big brother. He enjoys building with LEGOs, snuggling with his mom, and playing hide and seek.

Noah is a silly, happy, determined, and sweet little brother. He enjoys chasing his brother, reading books, and making us laugh.
Open Adoption

We were blessed to have been chosen by our boys' birth moms.


We love our open adoptions.
We were blessed to have been chosen by our boys' birth moms. Our open adoptions have been more wonderful than any of us could have expected. They are a part of our family and we are so grateful for their influences on our boys. We can't wait to open our hearts to another baby and birth mother!
