Our "Little" Family

So far, you've seen why we're adopting and why we are fundraising. Right at this moment I'd like to take a step back and tell you a bit about ourselves.



                                                                                    Rob:
Rob was born in Trenton, New Jersey, at the age of four he came to live in Ohio with the rest of his family as the youngest of four children. His eldest sister Donna and her husband, Jesse live in Virginia with their children and grandchildren. His older brothers Pat and his wife Lucy, and Mike with his wife Gloria and son, all live in Columbus. He has a close bond with his mother, who lives just moments away in Moraine, Ohio. They all live a few hours apart, but see each other throughout the year.

Ashley:
I was born and raised in Ohio as the eldest of four sisters. My family is very close, and we enjoy spending time together regularly. Everyone is anxiously waiting for more grandchildren to join the family. We have many fun family traditions that we can't wait to share with a new little one. We love doing anything together as a family, especially taking trips, having family parties, and spending holidays together. I also have a large extended family that is close, and we like to spend time with them. We get together once a month for a big family dinner at my parents house, and the holidays are full of lots of fun and memories.

After crossing paths over the years, we officially met six years ago at Sycamore State Park while LARPing. Rob proposed a year later in the same park that we met. On May 21, 2011 we married in the very same park. We both come from large families, so we've always wanted children. Family is very important to the both of us, and we wish to add a child to ours.
