James and Luke participated in BYU Fathers and Sons basketball camp at the end of May. They have been going to this camp for the last six years but this year was a little different because Matthew was finally old enough to join them. They spend the weekend playing various sports, attending firesides and temple square, and meeting players and coaches. They had a lot of fun together. I heard the ice cream at the Cannon Center was one of Matthew's favorite parts and Luke said he liked spending time with his dad. This experience always falls around James' birthday so it is a nice gift for him to get to spend time with his boys.
When they returned home, we had a surprise party for James' birthday!! That's right, James is now 40 years old. He is handling it like a champ-- no mid-life crisis at all. Then again, why would he have a crisis, he has already accomplished so much. We are proud of you and love you James!
