Catherine and Jeoffrey Nathan with their son, Hugh, on Wrightsville’s beach strand near their home at the south end. How did you know it was the right time to start a family? “There is never really a right time,” Catherine says. “We plan on always staying busy. We thought it would be a good time, if not the right time, in 2011. Our business had grown and we felt really lucky.” Does your spouse have a quirk you’ve learned to accept? “My husband is the neat freak of the two of us. I hate complaining about it, but he loves picking up after me and I’m always looking for the things he has put away,” Catherine says. “It’s a good problem.” Where do you see yourselves in another six years? “On the boat, sailing around the world,” Jeoffrey says. New Zealand is his top choice, but he thinks his sons would like the Panama Canal. “Hugh would love to see all the tankers,” Jeoffrey adds. Catherine agrees but suspects those days might be further down the road. “I’d love to be sailing around the world, but I don’t know if that’s going to happen in six years. Maybe 15,” she says. 31 ALLISON POTTER www.wrightsvillebeachmagazine.com WBM
