The Big 18!

We got Jeff a car for his birthday! He was spending about $90 a week just for gas in the expedition so we decided we would save money on gas and insurance. It was so funny we decorated the car and parked it in front of the house and sat and waited for him to come home from school! I was afraid he was going to run into the garage because he wouldn't take his eyes off the car....he was in total shock...he jumped out of the truck and almost tackled me.



Happy Birthday Jeff!
The things I love about Jeff....
1. The number one thing on my list is his love for people! He loves having lots of FRIENDS and makes them easy!
2. Number two thing and its tied with number one is he hates it when people are mad at him.... it doesn't take him long to APOLOGIZE to those he's hurt.
3. He'll still give his mom a HUG and tells me he loves me:)
4. He stands up for what he BELIEVES!
5. I love his GOOFY SMILE even though I complain at him when we take pictures!
6. He's STRONG!
7. He loves to TALK!
8. He doesn't do it as much anymore but he used to come find me just to sit and talk to me. He's my SON 1st of all but he is also a very GOOD FRIEND!
9. He loves to DRAW cities....he has a HUGE IMAGINATION like his dad!
10. I love that he's learning to play the PIANO....I wish we had one for him to play on:(
These are the words that make Jeffery! I am thankful for all my kids and am so lucky to have them! We love you Jeff you are AWESOME!

That's awesome! I wish we could have seen his excitement too! What a great young man he has grown up to be! What a good kid! And your # 2 will come in pretty handy when he's marries, LOL!

He cracks me up... Glad I was able to come to his party and that he thinks I am still cool enough to hang out with his friends. Ha Ha.
