This is a love story of a small town guy meeting a big city girl at the University of Northwestern in St. Paul. Both were in the engineering program and it took a few obvious hints from Katelyn to get Cedric’s attention. Before long he knew he had something special and it was obvious they were in love. Cedric proposed after a romantic dinner while playing All of Me by John Legend on the piano . . . . swoon. These two are getting married on the Fourth of July and I’m excited to share in their “fireworks.”

Minnesota gets plenty of credit for its 10,000 11,842 lakes but not enough credit for its big blue sky.
