Laura and Lucas met while working and living in the northern Saskatchewan fly-in community, Stony Rapids. On December 23rd 2011, Laura went to the airport to pick up some groceries for a Christmas supper and Lucas (and his puppy Whisky) helped her carry them to the vehicle. Laura invited Lucas to her supper the next night and the rest is history! In 2013, they moved to La Ronge and bought a house together there later that year. On September 1st 2016, their daughter, Ellie, was born. The Covid-19 pandemic forced them to postpone their wedding that was scheduled for August 20th 2020. One year later, their family grew with the arrival of their son, Otis, on August 20th 2021. After all their years together, they're ready to make things official at their wedding at Wapus Lodge this summer.
