Big Lake, Alaska holds a very special place in my heart. Growing up we spent many summer days at my grandpas cabin, swimming, painting piggie banks, and roasting marshmallows. As you’d imagine I was thrilled to hear that Raeanna and Jordan had chosen the beautiful sunset view resort in Big Lake for their wedding.

Sometimes it amazes me how large and how small our world can be and I don’t think I’m alone. That’s why shows like “This is us” are so popular. The way our lives crisscross, intersect, and part is fascinating.

Cierra and I go so far back you’d have to squint to see it, and even then you may not see the beginning of this story. I’m talking excessive amounts of glitter eye shadow, Backstreet Boys bumpin’, stick straight bangs, and more bathroom mirror selfies than I’d ever like to admit. I’d share a few […]
