About Us

Katie T. is a Tennessee native. Katie S. is originally from Illinois but moved to Tennessee when her family relocated to the state. Both of us come from hardworking families that had limited resources but were surrounded by an endless amount of love. Katie T. is an avid runner and loves camping. Tent, firepit, smores—she loves all of it! Katie S. climbs in an indoor climbing gym and rides horses (she’s had her horse, Jackie, for 21 years). We have two nephews and a niece we babysit regularly! Katie T. is a certified public accountant, and Katie S. is a team lead in the region’s leading provider of mental health, substance abuse, and social services. We both completed master’s-level education while working full-time. At our core, we are loyal and dependable, living a life filled with adventure and love.

Our Home & Pets

We live in a subdivision that includes a private pool and playground. It is common to see someone walking their dog, children playing tag, or families working in their yards. While our time in the subdivision has provided us with warm memories, we recently acquired six acres of land about 30 minutes away from our existing home. We will be building a new house, pool, and barn (for one to two horses) on this property. We look forward to chasing future kids around the property and teaching them to ride horses! Our current home and future property are both located close to several outdoor attractions, including the Great Smoky Mountains! Both locations are within ten minutes of several daycares and schools. We have two dogs, named Ripley (Belgian malinois) and Finn (Australian shepherd). We often take our dogs on hikes in the Great Smoky Mountains.

Our Extended Family

Family is an important part of our lives. We see both sides of our families nearly every weekend, so it goes without saying that we spend most holidays, birthdays, and special occasions with our families as well! Whether it is Thanksgiving, the Fourth of July, game night, or football season, there is always a reason for us to get together.

Katie T.’s immediate family consists of her mother, older sister, and brother-in-law. Her sister has one child, who is seven years old. All of her family live within 30 minutes of each other and spend a large amount of time together. They are a major support system for her. She has a large extended family of several aunts, uncles, and cousins who live nearby as well. Every Fourth of July, Katie T.’s extended family has a celebration at Aunt Becky’s pool, and every Easter, the kids have an Easter egg hunt (adult kids often participate too).

Katie S.’s immediate family consists of her mother, father, younger sister, and older brother. Katie’s parents and older brother live close by, while her sister resides in SC. Her younger sister and older brother are both married. Her brother has one son, who is one and a half years old, and has another one on the way. We enjoy spending time at each other’s homes. There is never a dull moment. A typical family get-together includes watching the Packers play football, cooking, and lots of laughter!

What Led Us To Adoption

We have been blessed with a great life filled with three nephews and a niece. We get an incredible amount of fulfillment from attending sporting events, climbing sessions, or movie nights with our nephews and niece, but something is missing. We have always longed to be parents ourselves. We desire to create memories and traditions with our own children. After struggling with fertility treatments, we decided adoption offered a beautiful opportunity for us to become parents. Adoption allows us to work with a birthmother to ensure her child is loved and supported. We believe adoption will fill our hearts with love and the missing piece to our journey.
