Adam just celebrated his 40th birthday! He keeps saying that he is half dead now. I told he him needs to be more optimistic and who knows...the next forty might be the best yet! Adam's dad and step-mom sent a card that seemed to lift his spirits! It read: Don't worry! You will get used to being forty and actually learn to like it...when your 50!
Several months ago I had asked him what he wanted to do for his birthday? He told me that he didn't want a big party and absolutely no surprise parties! He also made the comment that he better start being more cautious now that he is turning forty. What he didn't know was that I had already planned and set up a fun adventure for him! You hear about people having a mid-life crisis when these monumental birthdays come around. After a little thinking, I decided I needed to plan something that would help him feel young again! If not, I might be in trouble and find a new corvette parked in the garage. I can totally hear him trying to convince me that that would keep him feeling young. :) I had a plan in the works! I booked a zip line run down Provo canyon for Adam and I. It was soooo much fun! There were four different couples that we were grouped with. There were five different runs that took over two hours to complete. They took us to the top of the mountain on an ATV, and dropped us off. Our tour guides got us all clipped in, set up, and we were ready to go! We zip lined through pine trees and over the tops of trees( 130 + feet above the ground). Along the route there were a few tree branches that had grown out into the path of the zip line. When Adam made it to the bottom he made the comment that he was sure glad he had his legs closed at that particular part of the course! :) Made me laugh! It's not very often that we get to do fun things like this with just the two of us. It was fun spending the day together and feeling young again! Even if it was only for a few hours! :) Happy 40th birthday Adam!
