Our Family

 

Our lives are filled with happiness
Our hearts are filled with love
We’re soon to meet the little girl
We’ve been dreaming of


We are Brad and Lorissa Bennett. We were high school sweethearts who tied the knot in our college years. It is hard to believe it has been 19 years since our first date. Since then we have had three very fun beautiful children and we are very excited to be adding a fourth.
 


Brad and Lorissa

Our son Jordan is 15 year’s old. He loves playing football and baseball for his school. Go Knights! In the future he would love to be  a coach for either one, especially the conditioning. He also loves playing his guitar all the time. He plays for the school’s chapel band and for the youth service at church. His other great passion is working out. He is a great kid, always ready to give you a hug, a smile and a joke (he is quick on the comebacks). He is an awesome older brother to the girls.

Our daughter Megan is 12 year’s old. She participates in competition gymnastics, ballet and jazz. She either has her feet in the air or she is dancing around, if she is sitting still then she is asleep. Megan is funny and very creative, she loves designing things and she loves crazy colors and patterns. She has a passion for photography, and loves taking crazy pictures of everything under the sun including herself.

Our daughter Gwendalyn is 4 years old. Gwen shows every thought and every emotion by her facial expressions. As a family we are always saying and doing crazy things just to see the look on her face. She does take tap and ballet, but seems rather bored with it, she would rather play football, ride quads and hang out with all of the older boys in our family and there friends, definitely a tomboy at heart. But Gwen’s big, big, big passion is horses. She has always loved them. If she isn’t playing with the 1 million horses she has then she is pretending to be a horse, or she wants you to be the horses, or she is watching a movie about a horse (even John Wayne movies) or she is riding her giddy up and go pony. The only reason she wants to grow up is so she can ride a horse. She is counting down the days until her fifth birthday when she can finally start horse riding lessons.
