Welcome to our adoption blog!

Hello! Welcome to our adoption blog! We are Elise and Brandon and we are hoping to adopt again! Thank you for taking the time to look over our blog and for considering us for adoption.

We want you to get to know us, so we’ve put together a few things about how we met, who we are, and more. You can find these different pages by clicking the links below. We also invite you to visit our family blog (see the link in the right hand column) to keep up to date with what is going on in our lives.

Thank you! With Love--

Brandon, Elise and Cadence

All About Cadence: Animals

Cadence LOVES animals. It's kind of nuts, actually. She is always wanting to drive by the dairy or see the cows and horses (we live just outside of town so we see a lot of farm animals when we go out). We've been to the zoo a few times:
And she absolutely loves to feed the ducks:
It's so much fun!!

All About Elise: Baking

Elise LOVES to bake. It's definitely one of her favorite hobbies. She loves to try new recipes and experiment. It's also a great stress reliever. Lately, she's been trying out lots of new cheesecakes (because, of course, cheesecakes are delish!), including this chocolate one:
Yum! And while baking breads or just making new dinner recipes or trying other things are fun, too, dessert really is the most fun, because it tastes the best. Yum--thin mint parfaits!
She's even done a wedding cake for her best friend, Elizabeth, back in Wisconsin, with her mom's help:
(this was pre-Cadence, about 4 years ago now, standing proud by our creation)

All About the Millers

We make it a tradition to go to Fisherman's Breakfast every year, which is a free opening day breakfast in St. Anthony. It's a lot of fun! Brandon's been going almost every year of his life and Elise has gone every year since moving to Idaho. Cadence has gone every year of her life too!
Above it Cadence's first year. Below is her second, just a few weeks ago!

All About Brandon: Racing

Brandon is into NASCAR racing, in addition to all the NCAA sports he watches. It's a tradition in his family (with his grandparents and parents) to go to Vegas every year to see the races in March.
One time we were in Vegas, Brandon even got his picture taken by the car of his favorite driver--but it wasn't the real one, just the model at the M&M store.
