We believe that to be a good parent takes patience, understanding, guidance, support, unconditional love and the willingness to learn something new every day during that child's life.

Children are our future, they follow by example. We believe that every child should be raised with values, kindness, appreciation for others, compassion, love and laughter.

We, as parents, plan to provide your child with family values, emotional support, and encouragement that will allow him/her to become their own person and find what makes him/her happy with their life. We plan to be good role models, with all the love and emotional support that your child will need to have a happy and fulfilled life.

We live for the outdoors! We are very active people that enjoy being on the go, spending time with friends, family and each other. We enjoy working around the house, biking along the river, barbeques, sledding, sporting events, weekend adventure trips, concerts, swimming, floating down the river, and camping in the beautiful mountains. Jason enjoys a good game of golf, playing horseshoes, fishing, playing pool and softball. Jeri enjoys horseback riding, shopping, early morning gym workouts and photography.

On the more leisure side of life we enjoy watching movies, family game night, dinner with friends, and laying on the couch. Individually, Jason can be found curled up reading a good book, enjoying a good game of on-line golf, or watching sports. When Jeri is not tinkering around the house, she can be found doing arts and crafts, baking goodies, or sitting on the couch doing magazine crosswords.

Kenai and Koa

We have two wonderful dogs, Koa and Kenai, which were both adopted from animal shelters. Koa's litter was found on the side of the road, while Kenai was brought in by his previous owners. We adopted Koa first, he was quiet, lovable, and smart as a whip and the shelter put him just about three months old. He seemed to come with instructions of just take me home, give me love and I will take care of the rest, he began to spoil us. And that he did, he was a breeze to potty train, did not bark, did not chew up our home, nor destroy it, and did not jump on the furniture. Kenai came to live with us a few months later he also had a quiet, loving personality…at first. After a few short weeks, he started digging holes in the yard, chewing on our chair we received as a wedding gift, and wiggled his body so much that he knocked everything off the coffee table any chance he got. Unlike Koa, Kenai had to attend 'doggie' school.

The boys, as we refer to them are excited to go places and run around with our nieces and nephew. Children unlike adults, have tons of energy and can play with the dogs for hours. Generally speaking the kids wear out before the dogs.
