About Us…

We met working together at Waterville Valley Resort, Town Square in Waterville Valley, NH. After dating and being great friends for three years, we married and have been married five years. We make each other laugh and over the years we have shared so many fun times together! We have also built a solid foundation for our marriage, which enables us to face difficult challenges together.

Kali was born and raised in New Hampshire, and was excited to find a location to settle by her hometown. She earned her Master’s Degree in International Hospitality Business from Southern New Hampshire University. Working in the hospitality business for years in many aspects, Kali have found my dream job! She is a wedding and events coordinator, which has become a passion of hers to help people for such a special time in their lives! Kali absolutely loves skiing, hiking, and traveling. On days off during the summer, you can surly find her at either the lake or the river!

Angie was born in upstate New York, but grew up in Northern New Hampshire with her Mom, Dad, older brother Rick, and older sister Kristie. She earned her Licensed Nursing Assistant degree from the American Red Cross and worked with many clients both in their homes and at nursing facilities. Angie’smost favorite, yet most heartbreaking, was a 13 year old boy with cerebral palsy. When he passed away from his illness, she decided that she needed a bit of a break from that work, and started working as the head of housekeeping for a local inn. Angie enjoys spending time outside doing yard work or just being at the river, traveling, being creative, cooking and cleaning! On days off she loves to be at the lake or just be at home hanging out with the animals!

Our Home and Pets…

In February, 2017 we bought our home. We chose the area preparing for children with a large yard in a close-knit community, with the school, playground, and all of our favorite activities being in the White Mountains very close to us! We have three pets: Augusta a 9 month old Chocolate Lab, Hazel & Coal our 10 year old brother and sister cats! Our pets are wonderful companions for us. They are patient and gentle with each other as well as any guests we have in our home. We know they will be the best siblings to a child!

Our Family…

After loosing Angie’s Brother & Dad, and many other extended family members passing away as well as Kali’s Mom in the middle of Leukemia treatments, we have realized even more how family is central to our lives. Whether it’s the family we grew up with or the family we’ve built, we are blessed to have such a loving and supportive community around us as we build our family through adoption. Everyone around us, especially our parents are excited about our plans to build our family! They can’t wait to spoil this little child with love, attention, and support.

Our Journey to Adoption…

After a two – year struggle with infertility, we abandoned that path and eagerly answered the call to adoption. We have so much love and light to share with a child, and we know that we will shower any child in our home with unconditional love and support. Whether we’re dancing like fools in our kitchen while cooking or skiing in the mountains, we love to have fun and laugh together. We love to crack jokes with each other, play with the dog and go for walks in the woods. We’re looking forward to sharing these with a child and discovering new passions with him or her. We are looking forward to fostering these interests and helping guiding this child through life to grow to his or her full potential. When we imagine our life with a child, we think of everything we dream of for him or her. We see apple picking while enjoying the New England fall foliage. We imagine the dog romping around a swing set.
