We met at a local show in 2017. One of Jeremy‘s friends literally pushed him into Tyler to start up a conversation and here we are seven years later! During our time together, we have found we are a nerdy, fun-loving, and connection oriented couple. We love getting together with family for any occasion. We also enjoy time with our friends for games (board or video), movie nights, dinner, or general events. Baking, time with our cats, and house projects are home activities we thoroughly enjoy as well.
One of our biggest passions is travel! During our time together, we have visited Mexico, the Caribbean, Virgin Islands, Texas, California, Oregon, Arizona, Iowa, Wisconsin, and (of course) Minnesota. Tyler has significantly more travel experience (both domestic and international), but we are both excited to see where else our family can explore. We also enjoy exploring new places locally and trying out our local small town restaurants.
We have always known we wanted to have children, but as a same-sex couple, our options were limited to adoption or surrogacy. We felt that there are so many children in the world who deserve loving homes. Because of that feeling, coupled with discussions with adoptees that we know and love, adoption felt like the clear path for us. Our family and friends are all supportive of our decision and are excited to have another member of the family!
