Our House: We live in a little town in Kentucky in a small subdivision. We have a three bedroom home with a fenced-in backyard. Our house is only minutes from schools and shopping, but is just on the outskirts of town so it still has a bit of a country feel. There are lots of small children in our neighborhood for our child to play with. We have great neighbors and close friends are just minutes away. We love walking through our neighborhood or going to the park for the day, grilling out on the back deck or working in our garden.
Our Interests: Ryan loves to run, go target shooting, and is a great cook. He's always experimenting in the kitchen with new recipes. Emily likes to read, draw, and write. Her passion is photography. Together, we love traveling to new places (even if it's just going for a drive for the day), working in the garden, and hiking.
Pets: We have a cat named Buddy. He showed up on our back deck the winter before last. He was so cold and pitiful. We took him in, had a visit to the vet, and now he thinks he rules the roost! He's definitely pampered and loved.
Our Work: We are definitely blessed in our work. Fortunately, we both LOVE our jobs. Ryan is a computer programmer with flexible hours, Monday through Friday, for a forty hour work week. Emily is a special education teacher which allows her to choose the best schools for our child to attend. We will both have at least six weeks leave from work when we do adopt in order to bond with our child and develop a routine. Both of us have the flexibility to leave work or ask for time off if our child needs us for any reason (doctor's appointments, illnesses, activities, etc.).
