We love living in Montana because there is always something fun to do outdoors. We live less than an hour's drive to one of the most revered national parks in the U.S. - Glacier National Park. It provides endless opportunities for adventure. Whether it's an afternoon picnic at Lake McDonald, or a day-long trek to a glacial lake that starts at 6 a.m., we love making the most of our proximity to this majestic place.

The adventures don't stop there- we also love exploring new places, learning about history and the culture of the places we visit, tasting the cuisine, marveling at art, listening to music, and sharing in special moments of memory-making. Wherever we travel, we like to find a ferris wheel to ride, it's our tradition!

One of our favorite places to visit year-round is the Garden of One Thousand Buddhas, here in Northwest Montana. It's a beautiful sanctuary tucked in the mountains. While travel and exploration inspire us, we also love to travel to see our favorite music live. Tabor is an avid fan of Phish and has seen them over 80 times! Together, we love to see Sturgill Simpson, Khruangbin, and other live acts perform whenever we get the opportunity.

Near or far, we love adventuring through life together, and can't wait to add another little adventurer to our family.

Chrissy About Tabor: Tabor is a remarkable blend of intelligence, warmth, and commitment. His passion for learning and personal growth is truly inspiring, and he has a unique ability to encourage and guide others, especially as the Big Brother to a local middle schooler, offering support and encouragement in his studies. What stands out most about Tabor is his ability to see the big picture, giving me a profound sense of security, knowing that he will always be there for me, no matter what. He is steadfast in his commitment to me, to our family, and to building a loving, stable home filled with laughter and joy. Tabor's laughter is contagious, and what first captivated me was the way his eyes crinkled when he smiled (even though we met during the COVID times, wearing masks). There is no one else I would rather spend my days with—Tabor makes everything more fun and every moment brighter.

Tabor About Chrissy: Chrissy is unwavering. She's unwavering in what she believes. She's unwavering in her work ethic. She's unwavering in accomplishing what's important to her. She's unwavering in her desire to have family, and to create goodness in the universe through that family. She's unwavering in supporting the goals and dreams of those close to her. And most importantly, she's absolutely unwavering in her love. She loves strong. She loves hard. She loves consistently. Her daily actions speak clearly to that love. And the sum of all this represents a small portion of what will make her an incredible mother. Unwavering love, unwavering passion, and unwavering strength are what make her the rock of our family currently, and will to continue to do so when we are lucky enough to grow our pack.

Our family dreams are rooted in creating a warm, loving environment where laughter echoes through the home, growth is encouraged, and obstacles are faced together. We envision celebrating both the triumphs and the challenges, cherishing the magic of everyday moments and enduring the difficult times side-by-side. We don't hold a rigid vision of what the perfect family looks like, and trust that the universe will bring us together with your child for a reason.

Our greatest hope is to be a source of guidance and support, bearing witness to your child's journey as they grow into the best version of themselves. Our core values of love, respect, and communication inspire all that we are as a family and all that we aim to be as parents. As they express more of their unique personality and evolving interests, we will be there to encourage this child to pursue the things that light them up, whatever that may be! The overarching dream is for this child to feel a deep sense of belonging within our family - a place where they are loved and cherished unconditionally. We strive to nurture their innate talents, support their passions, and to walk alongside them as they navigate life's ups and downs. Above all, we hope to build a foundation of trust that will remain steadfast throughout their life, and if they decide to have a family of their own- we hope our love inspires them.

We are fortunate to call Flathead County, Montana, home, where we're surrounded by breathtaking natural beauty like Glacier National Park, Flathead Lake, and Whitefish Mountain Ski Resort. Our summers are filled with long days of sunlight, lasting until 10 p.m., giving us ample time to enjoy paddleboarding, golfing, hiking, walking our dogs, and grilling out. In the winter, we embrace the snow with skiing and frequent visits to the natural hot springs in the area. We both moved to Montana from different parts of the country in search of adventure, and when the stunning beauty and endless opportunities for exploration became part of our everyday lives, we knew we had found our forever home.

While we live here for the adventure and beauty, we've also found a neighborhood that offers the perfect balance of convenience for our daily lives. Our community is full of walking paths with spectacular mountain views, recreational fields for soccer, baseball, and football, and all the amenities you'd expect from a suburban neighborhood, like Costco and Target. One of our favorite weekly traditions is visiting the local Farmer's Markets on Tuesdays and Saturdays, where we support local farmers and businesses by purchasing fresh bread, vegetables, meats, and treats made from organic, locally sourced ingredients. It's our way of staying connected to the community and nourishing our bodies with the best of what our area offers.

Our neighborhood also provides wonderful communal spaces, including multiple playgrounds, a basketball court, community grills, and workout equipment, all of which contribute to a lively, welcoming atmosphere.

We feel incredibly fortunate to be surrounded by a large, loving, and engaged family. Tabor's roots run deep in Marietta, Georgia, where his mother and stepfather, father, sister and her partner, along with his three grandmothers all live. We make a point of visiting Marietta annually and love the warmth and hospitality of the South. Chrissy's family is more spread out, living in California, New England, and Florida. Her brother, along with their niece and nephew, live in San Diego. We had a memorable trip to the Rose Bowl game between Alabama and Michigan to visit them. Chrissy's brother has such a great sense of humor and is an incredibly loving man, seeing him as a father makes us excited for him to be the best Uncle to our future child. Chrissy's mom, Genie, lives in Florida, and we make sure to visit her at least once a year. We look forward to the sunny beaches and the warmth of Florida when we need a break from the cold winter months. Genie's humor and fierce love make her one of a kind and we can't wait to see her become a doting grandmother. Chrissy also has extended family in New England, and most summers we enjoy spending time as a family on the beautiful coast of Maine.

Thank you - truly, from the depths of our souls - for even thinking of us as the adoptive family for your baby. We're Tabor and Chrissy, and we're in awe of the courage, love, and selflessness you're showing. Your decision is a gift beyond words, one that's already weaving our lives together in the most beautiful way. We feel humbled and endlessly grateful to be part of your journey, and we promise to honor the trust you place in us every single day.

Here in Montana, we've built a life bursting with love, laughter, and the kind of wide-open wonder that only this place can offer. Picture rugged mountains, endless skies, and trails to be explored - this is the home we're so excited to share with your child. We're an adventurous duo, always seeking fun and exploration outside. In the summer months, you can find us hiking the majestic trails through Glacier National Park, paddle boarding across shimmering lakes, camping beneath a blanket of stars. In the wintertime, Tabor loves skiing at the local ski mountain, the place where we first met. We can't wait to show your little one the magic of skipping rocks across a glassy stream, spotting deer at dawn, or giggling over gooey marshmallows by the fire. But it's not just the big moments - we treasure the small ones, too: stirring up family recipes like Chrissy's soul-warming Moroccan harira, hollering at local baseball games, or curling up with a storybook at bedtime. These are the threads of our life, and we're ready to weave your child into every one, creating a tapestry of memories rooted in this wild, beautiful place we call home.

We can only imagine the whirlwind of emotions you're feeling right now, and we want you to know we see you - your strength, your grace, your heart. Your love is already changing us, lighting up our dreams of parenthood with a joy we've never known. Chrissy's excited to be a stay-at-home mom, to pour her days into every giggle, every milestone, every quiet cuddle. We picture Tabor teaching them to play catch or clapping for their dance recitals, both of us cheering them on as they chase their own path. We're eager to watch them grow - curious, bold, and loved beyond measure - with your spirit always a part of their story, a thread we will never let fade.

Our promise to you is simple but unshakable: your child will grow up safe, adored, and celebrated for exactly who they are. We'll fuel their dreams, spark their wonder, and give them a family that's equal parts adventure and anchor. They'll know where they came from - how brave you are, how much you mean to us, and how your love made us whole. If it's right for you, we'd be thrilled to keep you close - through letters, photos, or whatever feels good - so your child grows up wrapped in love from all sides, always connected to the incredible person who chose this life for them.

Thank you for trusting us with this precious piece of your heart. We're counting the days until we can scoop your little one into our arms, introduce them to Montana's magic, and start this adventure together. You've given us a gift that humbles us - a spark of hope, a bond of love, a future brimming with possibility. We'll cherish your child, honor you, and build a life where they'll thrive, surrounded by the traditions, beauty, and warmth of our world.

With all our gratitude,

Tabor & Chrissy
