It was a happy day in Alaska, as Sarah Palin's oldest son recently married his high school sweetheart. Track Palin, 22, said "I do" to Britta Hanson, 21, in a small ceremony in the state's Hatcher Pass.
"Our families couldn't be happier!" the Hansons and Palins said in a joint statement. "These are two hard working, humble, active, studious young adults who grew up together. We're tickled that after two decades of friendship we proudly witnessed their marriage, knowing their new life together will be blessed."
Track is an Army Reservist who spent a year deployed in Iraq with a Ft. Wainwright Stryker Brigade. He will study at the University of Alaska after the commercial fishing season ends. His new wife is currently a nursing student at the University of Alaska and plans to work in a local hospital upon graduating.
The newlyweds, who have been dating for years, plan to have a bigger celebration this winter at Alaska's Alyeska Ski Resort "when extended family and friends from the Lower 48 can travel north for a long ski weekend."
