Millie & Michael

We love making memories and making each other laugh. One of the things that we love the most is making memories. We are lucky enough to be able to travel. Since Michael and I met, we have talked about traveling around the world!. While he was in the Marines, he had the opportunity to travel through Asia and the Middle East, but once we started dating, we created our memories traveling together. We have been in several cities and towns around the US, but Montana and Wyoming are some of our favorite states to visit; nature is just all over, and we cannot get enough every time we visit. We have had the opportunity to travel outside the US, to places like London, Amsterdam, Prague, Austria, Budapest, Turkey, Mexico, Argentina, Nicaragua, Canada, etc. We have had so many adventures while visiting those places and met so many great people while traveling that we will have to create one chapter per city to share all our memories. We have been so lucky that some of the trips we have done have been able to be with our parents and families. Having been able to come on our trips has been fun and full of memories that we will never forget. We are looking forward to sharing more trips with our child. We believe that children expand their horizons when they can go to new places and meet fun people from around the world. "LOVE is what really makes an adoptive family. There are not mistakes. You are wanted, loved, and chosen to be in our forever family." -Mardie Caldwell.

Education is a big conversation for Michael and me. We believe that it is the most important issue. We believe that a child needs to be nurtured and guided by the parents all through school and beyond, so they can become a good person. At the beginning of the child’s life, it is important to find what the child’s abilities are so those abilities can be nurtured and developed over time. “Children are little sponges that absorb everything, so it is important to provide them with a good environment where they know they are loved, understood, and challenged.” We are prepared to provide the best opportunities for our child in every way. We are looking forward to being great parents and allowing our child to thrive in life.

This is our home sweet home. A home that we were lucky to purchase just a couple of years ago, and remodeled before we moved in. This home is a long-time dream of ours; a dream to find a ranch home with some acres to eventually have a small farm for our family. In the future, we will be able to have some small animals and a garden so we can plant some veggies and teach our children the small things in life that make life worth living: family, home, and the love for each other. Michael and I purchased this small ranch a couple of years ago. We always wanted to live in a small town surrounded by nature, big oak trees, and wildlife. We enjoyed having a cup of coffee with each other on the weekends outside on our back porch while watching the families white-tailed deer just walking around the fields. We love our home, and we cannot wait to share this home with our future child. We are looking forward to the future and being able to start getting our small farm going; maybe we will start with a couple of chickens and goats, and perhaps a mini donkey and a small garden so we can grow some veggies.

THE LOVE STORY - Our love story is a unique story, full of love and g rea t adven t u re s a l ong the way. Ups and downs, bu t a l ways l ov i ng each other. OUR WEDDING DAY - In June 2004, we eloped to Mexico and got married. Twenty years later, we remarried through the church in a beautiful ceremony. OUR INTEREST - We love traveling and taking road trips every time we have time off work. We have been lucky to be able to visit different places all around the world. We love the outdoors, but the places that we love the most are the ones that are by the ocean; being surrounded by water just makes us feel so relaxed and gives us a sense of peace. One of our favorite places to go and just soak up the sun is the Dominican Republic and Nicaragua. The beaches are just so amazing, and the people are so nice and happy. We are fortunate to be able to travel as much as we do and have Michael’s job flexibility to work remotely when he needs to. We have a lot of friends and family who live in different parts of the world that we visit and would like to continue to do so, but in the future with our child. I hope we can make this dream come true.
