Thank you so much for taking the time to read a little about us and for considering us as adoptive parents.

While we can’t imagine what you are going through and all of the emotions that you may be feeling, we admire the love you have for your child and your strength in considering an adoption plan. It takes a lot of courage to trust another family to provide a life filled with everything you wish for your little one.

Whether or not you decide for us to be your...

Steven and his dad both love racing and working on cars. Steven races their drag car, and they travel around to different tracks on several weekends throughout the year. Usually, the rest of the family will come out to some races, and we spend the day cheering Steven on and BBQing at the track.

During the fall, we love watching NFL and college football games. We try to go to one NFL game a year and will travel to wherever our team is playing. Over the years, we’ve made our way to several new cities for a...

We spend a lot of time with Steven’s side of the family and enjoy visiting them out in the country. Our trips always include some fishing, hunting, and adventures out in the woods. Steven’s sister and her husband just had their first child in the summer of 2021 and we’ve already had a lot of fun experiences with the newest family member! Their little bundle of joy is the first grandchild for Steven’s parents, who have taken on their role of grandparents with pride. We all love cooking and enjoy being in the kitchen together, but most...

Our three-bedroom house is in a small subdivision in central Alabama. If we’re at home, most of the time you will find us outside, either working on the yard, gardening, decorating for the season, grilling outback, or throwing the frisbee for the dogs.

We enjoy entertaining during the holidays and have hosted several Thanksgiving and Christmas celebrations here with friends and family. Even though our neighborhood is quiet, there’s always a soft hum of family activity. There are always families...

Throughout my childhood, it seemed my family was constantly traveling. We usually did most of our traveling in the summer, but we always took a few weeks in the winter to visit my grandparents in Florida. One summer, we took a two-week road trip to visit several different states and national parks - it was an adventure I will never forget.

As a young adult, I traveled around Europe with a couple of my close friends. During that trip, I got to see many things I had only read about in history books and gained a...

My fondest childhood memories were made while tagging along with my parents as they pursued their passions of auto and horse racing. We had a blast cheering for my parents and watching them dedicate themselves to their interests and hobbies.

When we weren't attending racing events, my dad would always take our family out to eat on Saturday nights. It was a treat I looked forward to every week and is a tradition I imagine will be passed along to the next generation. Growing up, my grandparents lived close to...

Hello, we are Steven and Lisa. Thank you for considering us as adoptive parents. As you review our profile, we hope you can envision what your child’s life might be like if placed with us.

Our story is similar to many these days as we met on an online dating site. At the time (2011), Lisa was in the military and stationed in Alabama and Steven was only a few towns away, working long hours with little time for socializing. We were a little apprehensive about online dating and exchanged messages for about two...
