Hey there! We are Luke & Samantha!

Thank you for taking the time to get to know us better, we are excited to get to know you too!

While we look forward to sharing more about our life with you, we can't begin to imagine how you must be feeling in this moment. We hope you can find comfort in knowing that making an adoption plan is such an admirable, selfless, and life-giving decision. The weight of this decision is not lost on us and we hope that you feel seen and supported every step of the way.

We have so much love to share and are thrilled for the opportunity to provide a safe, nurturing, and fun environment for your child to grow up in! They will always know your courageous love made us a family. We are so deeply honored to be considered by you and no matter who you choose, we pray that God will guide you and give you peace as you find the perfect family for your baby.

Our Story

We met on our first day of high school! Belly laughs at the lunch table turned into friendship which turned into two kids realizing we wanted all the same things in life. We have been together ever since!

Luke is always up for adventure and trying new things, while Samantha enjoys all things crafting and caring for others. We like to think we balance each other well. Luke makes Samantha brave and Samantha keeps Luke organized! Together we love to travel to new places, go on hikes, host game nights with friends, and make each other laugh every day.

Our marriage is founded on faith, joy, and honest communication. Since we met so young, we have grown up together and have become a great team. We know that no matter what life throws our way, we can fully trust and rely on each other to pick each other up and celebrate the little victories in life.

We love the life we have built so far and are excited for this next chapter of our story as parents. We cannot wait to share our love, laughter, and home with a child!

Home and Family

There is nothing better than a full house and good food!

We love to have friends and family over for dinners, game nights, and holiday parties. One of our favorite things to do together is cook, especially brisket, chicken noodle soup and stir fry!

We live in a small, family friendly neighborhood with lots of parks, walking trails, and pickleball courts. Part of our evening routine is cooking dinner together, followed by a walk through the neighborhood!

We like to say we have the best of both worlds when it comes to family! Luke is the 6th of 7 children, with 18 nieces and nephews, while Samantha is an only child. We enjoy the quiet, laid-back side of Samantha's family and the fun "chaos" that comes with Luke's. Our family is everything to us, so any free time we have, we love to spend it with them at birthday parties, sporting events, and anything in between.
