Mariah's Alaskan Heritage

The Sweeney family enjoyed their first born and nicknamed him Buddy. Less than two years later, a little girl named Hillary joined the family. As time went on, they had other children and raised them in the outskirts of Fairbanks, Alaska. Raising children in the cold winters in Fairbanks wasn¿t always easy but they never considered returning to the lower forty-eight. They worked hard at teaching the children about the dangers of bears, swift water, moose, and very cold days. They also took advantage of the fun things there was to do in the great state of Alaska.
