Mi Vida Ocupada: My Busy Life!: Happy Bday, baby bro!

Happy Bday, baby bro!

Its my brother Jeff's birthday today! In his honor, I thought I'd share some old pictures and maybe tell you about Jeff when he was a kid.

It was a happy day when baby Jeffrey Robert was born May 18, 1981. I had just turned 4, and Brian had just turned two.

Jeff was the cutest little kid! He had the curliest blonde hair that stopped strangers in their tracks. (Thats Jeff in the lower left corner, Then Brian, then my aunt Patti and cousin Michael and then me)

My brothers and I were Karate Kids. Karate Kid was one of the 12 movies we saw over and over as kids.

Here we are in the Black Hills with a donkey?!

As cute as these friendly family photos are, don't let us fool you. Brian and I picked on Jeff at just about every opportunity we could get. Man, it would've sucked to be the baby in the family! Jeff got so much crap, I am not even kidding! Hopefully he doesn't hold too much resentment for the sibling torture we put him through.

I could tell you many funny stories about Jeff, but he probably has just as many stories about me. So I definitely won't tell you about the time his World Series Hat fell in the toilet. Or about the songs Brian and I made up and sang to him.

I could make this post really super long listing all of Jeff's accomplishments, but I think today I will just say.....

Happy Birthday Jeff!
