The big celebration was a 5 day trip to Lake Chelan with our good friends the Faders and Carter Stevenson. We left Nate with the grandparents and had a super relaxing and fun weekend with lots of laughs, good food, games, great conversations and amazing memories. The boys golfed 3 days in a row. Heidi and I both being pregnant got to sleep in and lounged in the sun reading our magazines. We did finally join the boys at golf on the last day and helped drive the carts. We only made it through the first 9 holes though and then got too hot and spent the rest of the time in the clubhouse. We made dinner at night and there were tons of games of cribbage and a late night round of Mexican Train dominoes. James and Carter both brought their guitars--such a treat to get serenaded! Some of our favorite highlights were a special birthday dinner for James at Sorrentos at Tsillan Cellars. James' best friend Russ and his wife Tammy were in Chelan at the same time and got to join us for dinner as well as Heidi's dad and his wife Julie. It was an amazing dinner with great food, lots of wine, and just really special interactions with some of our most favorite people. Another major highlight was one evening taking Heidi's dad's boat over to Campbell's resort and visiting the Beach Bar for fun tropical drinks and swimming at the beach. I think James had a really great time and it was a really special way to enter into the forties. Thank you to our dear friends for making it such an incredible weekend!
The birthday celebration continued into last weekend when we had dinner with James' family. Again more wonderful time with loved ones plus ice cream cake!
I don't want to speak for James but I think his 40th birthday turned out to be one of the most fun and memorable birthdays he's had which is great considering it's kind of a scary milestone. Happy birthday my sweet husband and here's to 40 more years!
