About Us.
Hello, we are Trent and Ryan from Minnetrista MN. We have been together since 2011 and got married in 2016. We built our forever home in 2015 in a newer neighborhood filled with young families, parks, and miles of trails that we can’t wait to enjoy with our own children someday. We currently do not have any children, but we do enjoy time with our 2 pugs and 1 cat. We also love spending time with both our families and our neighbors, who are all amazing and supportive of us and this journey.
​
We are both very excited to start a family of our own, and something we have dreamed
for many years now. We have 12 nieces and nephews and enjoy spending time with them every moment we can, a couple of them we get to watch and have “uncles” day every week. We feel so lucky for all of our families to live near to us, as for both of us growing up, family has always been everything to us. We have always been close with our family and have the best support system with them. Watching our nieces and nephews over the years has only made us more eager to have our own children. With both of us working from home, having very flexible schedules, and a strong family support system, we feel this will allow us to be the best parents we can be.
Meet Trent.
I’m 31 years old and spent most of my career in the restaurant industry, waiting tables, bartending, and cooking. Ryan and I also owned and operated a coffee shop for a few years until we sold it. Since covid, I have left the industry and started a small reselling business that came about from my love of collecting sneakers. I love that it’s something I can do from home and that it’s flexible with my schedule. I would say I’m pretty easy-going and laid back, I love spending time at home with our two dogs and cat, I also love to travel and looking forward to more adventures as things open up more. I was very fortunate to get to travel with my family from a young age, and it is an experience I’m excited to share with my children someday.
Meet Ryan.
I’m 38 years old and have spent most of my career as a self-employed entrepreneur. I currently run an eCommerce company that deals in email technologies for larger corporations and am fortunate to run day-to-day operations from home. I also have a seasonal lighting company we started after our own homes high-tech light display became very popular for the holidays. The holiday season has always held a special place in my heart as I love to host our families' gatherings at our home each year, and with a very large family, the one time a year we all get together for that special family time. Being our holiday light shows have also become the staple of the neighborhood, I can’t wait to share this special time and tradition with our future children.
