Travis & Rachel

Hello,

We are sure that right now you have a lot of emotions going on and are not quite sure how to
feel. We want you to know that we cannot even imagine the thoughts and feelings that are going on in your mind and heart. We know we have never met you, but we pray for you and the baby every day.

Our names are Travis and Rachel and we have been married for almost 10 years. Travis is a chef
and in the Air Force Reserves. In his family he grew up in, he has a sister and both his parents. Travis loves sports, outdoor activities, and wood working. Rachel is a wedding planner at a venue in the mountains. Rachel grew up as an only child with both of her parents. Rachel loves outdoor activities, gardening, cooking, and reading. We have a lot of fun together doing all these activities together. Rachel grew up as a Colorado Native and briefly moved to Kansas, where she met Travis. After falling in love and getting engaged, on a vacation in the Colorado mountains, we moved back to Colorado from Kansas.

We have both been blessed to have 100% support and excitement for our adoption journey. Our family and friends are so excited for us to welcome a child into our family. Both of our families are going to be very involved with the day care plans we have. Although Rachel hopes to stay home for some time while the child is young, both our moms are willing to drop everything to come help care for the child. We also know that this child is going to be so spoiled and fawned over! No one can wait for there to be a little one in our home!

We have learned so much about the benefit of the child knowing their birth family and we hope to keep an open and healthy level of communication throughout the child’s life. They can only be blessed by more love!

We continue to think about and pray for you daily.
