Waiting families

Morgan + Jessie

We are Morgan and Jessie. We live in Northeastern Wyoming, on the edge of the Black Hills. It is a beautiful area with many opportunities for outdoor activities that we enjoy. We started dating in 2015 and were married August of 2018. We enjoyed a beautiful ceremony with our family and friends. We lived at the family ranch for a couple of years before purchasing our own home on the edge of town. We have enjoyed many camping trips, adventures to retrieve Morgan’s next project, visits to Wisconsin, tending our gardens, and growing stronger in our marriage each year.

We intended to grow our family after marriage. In our first year, we suffered a miscarriage and have battled with infertility ever since. After exploring our options, we came to the decision of adoption. We feel a calling from God that this is how we are meant to become parents and grow our family. We have a beautiful home and lots of love to give. We have built a wonderful life together and would feel honored to share it with a child. We hope to teach our child values of integrity, honesty, accountability, and the love of God. Our parents, siblings, nieces and nephews, friends, and our two pups (Trudy & Edith) are excited to welcome a new member of the family as well.

Morgan grew up in Western South Dakota. His family still operates the ranch that his great-grandpa homesteaded over 100 years ago. After high school, he attended trade school for welding and worked in the oil field for a number of years. Now he runs his own mechanic shop located at our home. Morgan is a fisherman, enjoys hosting friends and family for BBQs, working out with his buddy Ty, camping, and hanging out with Jessie. He also likes to work on old vehicles, going to museums, and meeting up with the guys for a beer every once in a while.

Jessie grew up in Wisconsin on her family’s dairy farm before they sold the cows and moved to Wyoming when she was 12. After high school she played college soccer in North Dakota and later worked for the University of Wyoming soccer team. In 2020 she went back to school to become a nurse and has worked at the local nursing home for almost a decade, starting as a nurse aide and is now a registered nurse. In her free time, Jessie loves to garden, hike the hills, camp, fish, paddle board, cook and bake, listen to music, crafting, coach the local high school girls’ soccer team, play cards, solve puzzles, and spend time with family and friends.

We thank you for taking the time to look through our profile and hope that you were able to learn who we are.
