And Now For Some More Good News

As some of you know (well, I think everyone who reads this knows), I proposed a few months back, and she actually said yes (sucker!). I've been slowly telling friends and family as I think of it, and now am ready to tell the world. Jenn and I are getting married next May (the 3rd to be exact), and we're so excited. Now we're just stuck with all the details...who knew a wedding was so much planning? Thankfully the parents are helping out. Couldn't do it without them!

And yes, at some point I'll finally post some pictures of the lovely Ms. Coulas, but for some reason she's a bit camera shy. Or at least when I'm trying to take pics. Something about "let me put some clothes on" or some excuse like that ;)

I'm An Uncle...Twice!

I know this is mostly a travel blog for me, but I've got to post some pics of the new additions to the extended family of sorts.

First is a beautiful baby girl that my good friends Brian and Tamie (they live in Japan), Layla Estey, born at the beginning of June this ye

Congrats Brian and Tamie!

The second addition is a little closer to home (as it were) as it comes from someone I consider one of the brothers I never had. A big congrats to GJ and Heather up in Sioux Lookout, who just gave birth to Hannah Lynn a few weeks ago (and I finally got some pictures!)

Hannah Lynn Ninivirta

Proud (and very tired) GJ with his new girl

All I can say is that I'm super excited for both of you, and I can't wait to meet the kids.
