ELENA & VINCENT · OUR ADOPTION STORY
A little window
into our world.
Two people. A life full of love.
And a chapter we hope to share.
A LITTLE CLOSER
Every story starts
with getting to know you.
Two people, two dogs, and a life in Phoenix. We’re hoping to grow our family through adoption.
A note to you
Thank you for taking a moment to get to know us. We can’t know exactly what this moment feels like for you, but we hope you feel welcome here. There’s no expectation to have everything figured out. You can take your time, explore our story, and reach out whenever you feel ready.
With warmth, Elena & Vincent
THE EVERYDAY MAGIC
Home is in
the little things.
Something baking. Two dogs underfoot. A whole neighborhood lighting up for the holidays.
Tamales & time together
Making tamales as a family is one of the Mexican traditions Vincent grew up with and that we carry into our life together.
The holidays are a big deal here
We love Christmas, and our neighborhood does too—with holiday light contests! Halloween brings hundreds of kids out trick-or-treating. These are celebrations we can’t wait to share.
Good food. Good company.
We both love cooking, Elena loves baking, and trying new foods is part of the fun whenever we travel.
A little fur.
A lot of personality.
One dainty husky. One delightfully doofy Lab. Our very favorite sidekicks.
PHOENIX, ARIZONA
Our kind of
sunshine.
Little adventures,
close to home.
Big wonder. Little footsteps.
Meeting the animals at the Phoenix Zoo’s Harmony Farm, exploring the farm play areas, and finding something new to be curious about.

A FEW VERY SALGADO DAYDREAMS
A little ahead
of ourselves.
Too many snacks. Dogs in all the good seats. Vince turning a small project into a full construction job.
We’ve imagined the little days, the big milestones, and someone new to share them with.
Nine imagined moments. A whole life to get to know.WHENEVER YOU’RE READY
