Five years ago, my sister and jumped into my car from Fresno and headed to Portland to visit our aunties for a girls weekend right before Labor Day. We had a wonderful time and at the moment we both had the craziest idea to pack up our lives and move there because she had lived there before for several years and loved the city but we both new we would have the time of our life growing old together. In between jobs and with nothing to hold her back, when we got back home — she immediately started packing and looking for work. I started applying for work too but said I’d only move if I found work. As fate would have it, I met a guy... who knew if it was going to lead anywhere then but I had a gut feeling that I couldn’t let this one go and so I let my sister head up by herself as I figured things out. And that guy I met those many September’s ago was... Deth, and life has been so beautiful since for me. As for my sister, if she hadn’t made that impulsive move, she would have never met her husband. Life has a funny way of leading you exactly where you need to go so I just know good things will await us on the other side of this pandemic! 📷 Photo I took at my sisters Hmong Wedding. #hmongwedding #blendedbliss #hmongamerican #lifeisgood #unexpectedblessings #lifeislikeaboxofchocolates #helloseptember #quarantinelife #livetgroughthis #spruitlovevang #pdxweddingphotographer #pnwweddingphotographer #traditionalwedding #culturalweddingphotographer #culturalweddingtraditions #weddinginspiration #loveauthentic #brideandgroom #bridalportraits #hmoobtshoob #tshoob #interacialcouple (at Sherwood, Oregon) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEnXz2hDYUL/?igshid=17uwtuw134u0f
