He seemed pretty happy about it:
We were coming off of a weekend filled with region swimming and an overnight scout snow camp, so we kept the celebration very low key with only immediate family members attending. Happily, Bronson was able to join us:
Lately, Jefferson has had little patience for picture taking - hence, the "grimace":
As Jefferson has grown older and Bronson's moved out, these two have grown closer:
Mathison's birthday gift to Jefferson:
This is a toy of Mat's which he picked from his closet for Jeff, and he gave it to him earlier in the day. Later, he wanted me to wrap it so he could give it to his brother again. It too was cute :)Here are some things I admire about Jefferson:
*He is a WIZARD with duct tape - seriously, this kid can make and fix anything with that stuff!!
*He is a history buff, especially about anything to do with wars and warfare.
*Jefferson is a gifted performer.
*He will still give me hugs and tell me he loves me - even in front of his friends!
*He has many leadership skills.
*Jefferson has a strong testimony of the gospel and will make a great missionary someday.
*His endless enthusiasm.
Happy Birthday Jefferson - we feel so lucky to have you as part of our family!!

Can't believe it's been 14 years! Happy Birthday!
Happy birthday Jefferson! Wow, I can't believe he is 14! I remember going to see him right after you had him. Does he still have a blonde patch in his hair? I love Matt's gift to him :)
Jefferson is such a great kid! We sure love him :) Happy Birthday Jeff!
Fourteen???!!! Crazy! He is a great kid and has always been entertaining and fun to be around. I can't believe that he is camera shy though. Doesn't sound like the Jeff we know...
