« | June 2007

I'm very happy to promote a sale for all our supporters and future customers, and of course the Summer is bringing some amazing recreational weather. But the overwhelming theme of this summer for myself, family and friends, seems to be marriage.

On Saturday June 30th, 2007, Derek Fernandes and Gabriela Calero will be tying the knot in what's sure to be an amazing event. I wish my "little" brother and his future wife all the best for the day and the future. I'd also welcome Gaby to the family, though it's been long enough that's she's been a part of it for years.

He's he's off to a good start by choosing a spectacular bride and of course the "best" best man money can't buy - yours truly. After all, do you know many people that would make a website for their brother's stag? Complete with online ticket sales and gift processing no less.

I would also like to take this opportunity to announce my own recent engagement to Erin Hawkins, my beautiful fiancée (and recent Facebook addict - I'm sorry I didn't invent it first baby). I'm still getting used to that word, it's been "girlfriend" for the past five years. Coincidentally, this week is also our anniversary. Remind her that all good things take time, and come to those who wait.

We're not done yet... This past weekend we celebrated with friends, Ryan and Julie Marshall, at their beautiful outdoor wedding. And when the summer finally winds down we'll be with other friends Jakub and Khoa for their sunset ceremony.

I'm just thinking aloud here, but I have no doubts that sooner, rather than later, there will probably be a baby-themed season...

So please spread word of the sale around - these weddings are pretty expensive and I'd like to give my brother and his wife more than a $10 gift and maybe buy my fiancée a ring. ;)
