Stefan Cowell (EMBA) is almost ‘changed out’ with the crazy year the Cowell household has had. The most important change was the arrival of twins on Jan. 31. Ella Julia emerged at 9:15 a.m. at 5 lbs., 14 oz., followed a minute later by her baby brother, Evan Hudson, at 7 lbs. Brenda did fantastically well and now has three kids to deal with (Stefan being the third, in case you’re wondering). The Cowells are currently in the process of moving from Calgary to Abu Dhabi, UAE. The adventure continues.
