Christopher and Alison
We're looking to adopt a baby
Hi, we are Chris and Alison. Thanks so much for reading our stories. We are excited for you to get to know us better.
Our love story began when we were teenagers. We met through mutual friends when we were in high school and began dating. We loved spending time together. Going to different schools and having separate extra-curricular activities made us appreciate the time we got to spend together. We dated throughout high school and spent as much time as we could together. Eventually, things were put on hold when Chris left for a Latter-Day Saints mission and Alison left for college. We found our way back to one another when Chris returned home. We were sealed for time and all eternity in the Bountiful Temple in December of 2008.
We currently have one child, Bridger. Bridger is our very own Halloween baby, born on October 31, 2016. Having Bridger was a medical miracle. It took us five years to have him due to various medical complications. Now, we are hoping to grow our family through an adoption plan. Ever since Chris was young, he has had a strong desire to adopt a child. We know that there is a child out there for us to love, take care of, and raise as a member of our family.
