We are beyond excited at the prospect of becoming parents through adoption and thank you for taking time to read about us. Rodney grew up on a small farm in southern Minnesota and is the only boy in a family of six children with two older and three younger sisters. He is very close to his family and we love spending time with our two nephews and three nieces. We often have gatherings to celebrate birthdays, holidays and meals as a large group since most of his family lives within 30 minutes. Rodney loves his job as a power sports technician, working on four-wheelers, snowmobiles, jet skis and motorcycles. He loves to snowmobile and takes at least one trip every winter with family and friends to the Rocky Mountains. His interests include hunting, car shows, and restoring vintage snowmobiles. Dawna also grew up on a small farm in southern Minnesota where her dad raised horses. She is the middle child in a family of three girls. Her family lives about 30 minutes away. She is also close to her family and likes to go shopping with her mom and sisters and have the whole family over for dinner. Dawna is a registered nurse at a local hospital. She works part-time, dividing time between being a floor nurse and an infusion nurse. She likes working with and caring for people. Her interests include knitting, crocheting, wildlife and bird watching, music and traveling. We were high school sweethearts and began dating in 2002. We were married in 2007 and now live in rural southern Minnesota on our acreage. We attend car shows in the twin cities and travel throughout Minnesota to watch migrating birds. We love camping, traveling and seeing new sights, and look forward to sharing these experiences with our children someday. We also enjoy nights with home cooked meals and good movies at home. Above all, our favorite “hobby” is people. Whether it is family dinners or holidays, shopping or projects, concerts or movies, we enjoy being around those we love. We live on ten acres, about five miles from a town of 1,200 people. The town has a good school system, daycares, parks, a pool and our church. We are excited that our children will have the chance to grow up with space to enjoy the outdoors, playing with our yellow lab, Mayzie. We love living in the country, but are also fortunate to live 30 minutes from a town of 13,000 people where we both work. As we both come from family-oriented backgrounds, we hope to create a family of our own through adoption. We hope to adopt one or two children and do not have gender or nationality preference. We understand that it is hard to get all the information you want from a letter and would be more than happy to answer any questions. Thank you for considering adoption and we wish you the best through this journey in your life! Rodney and Dawna
