The Vance's Adoption Story

What if you could say that Mixbook changed your life?

Sean and Megan Vance can. The couple used a custom family photo book to reflect their personalities, day-to-day lives, hopes and dreams, to connect with their first son's birth mother. Together, the Vances built a personalized family profile that helped Gavin's birth mother choose them from a pool of waiting adopters.

How the Vances Used a Mixbook Adoption Profile Photo Book

And that's when the Vances put together a custom photo book.

Gavin, whose high energy keeps both Mom and Dad on their toes, gets to relive special times with the Mixbooks his parents still create - and one of them is his entire adoption story.

Gavin's little sister, Tessa, also flips through family photo books to relive special family moments. The bouncy toddler had a month to gear up for Tessa's arrival, and could hardly contain his excitement for her to join the family. The family continues to document their adventures and capture milestones in photo books that they'll enjoy for years - and they frame them in stories that one day, Gavin and Tessa will share with their own families.
