Audrey & Jorge

We love spending time together doing things that bring us joy and keep us connected. Travel is one of our biggest passions—whether it’s a quick weekend trip, exploring new places, or a visit to Disney. We enjoy making memories together wherever we go.

At home, we like keeping active and involved. Jorge trains in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, and Audrey loves playing soccer and joining local community events. Photography is a big part of our lives too—it helps us capture the little everyday moments that mean the most. When we’re not out and about, we love cozy nights at home watching Disney movies, cooking together, and walking our dogs around the neighborhood.

Our days are full of laughter, teamwork, and small adventures. We love finding joy in simple things and spending time with the people and activities that make us feel connected and happy.

Family and friends are the heartbeat of our lives. Most of our extended family lives in Puerto Rico, and although miles separate us, the connection is strong—every visit, video call, or holiday is filled with music, food, laughter, and the kind of joy that makes distance disappear.

Here in Georgia, we are surrounded by friends and neighbors who truly feel like family. Audrey has had the same best friend since middle school—now Matteo’s godmother—who has walked through every season of life by her side. She also shares deep friendships with neighbors who gather for books, crafts, and everyday support. Jorge’s best friend since second grade remains like a brother, and together we both treasure lifelong friendships from work, college, and our community.

These people are more than friends; they are our village—the ones who celebrate our happiest moments, lift us during hard times, and help surround our child with love, laughter, and a strong sense of belonging.

Our cultural heritage is something we hold close and love sharing with our children. From Puerto Rico, we treasure family celebrations filled with music, food, and laughter, and we especially enjoy keeping Three Kings Day alive each year.

Matteo was born in Ukraine, and we weave in stories, food, and traditions from his birth country so he always feels connected to his roots. We also embrace traditions from Haiti, the Dominican Republic, and Korea, which enrich our family with even more diversity—whether it’s trying new foods, learning about holidays, or sharing stories and customs with friends.

Living in the U.S., we balance these influences with American traditions, from community holidays to everyday family moments. Blending all of these cultures together creates a home full of identity, curiosity, and pride, and we are excited to continue passing that richness of heritage and love to our children.
