Arielle Haban 2011

Happy Birthday beautiful Arielle!
I love you more than words can tell!
I loved you when Mecham was how your name was read,
I love you now that Haban is more commonly said.
Sometimes I really just want to see your face
But then I remember… you’re in a different place.
Dan and Texas are what took you so far away.
Then to Utah you’ll go so “I’m a nurse” you’ll be able to say.
The Thatcher times have come and gone…
Fortunately, many good times were had with memories fond!
That’s simply because you’re always ready to have a good time!
Going on THE WALK with you was worth more than a dime!
A genuine woman I’ve always seen in you,
And also a fierce crawdad fisher, you’ve caught a great slew!
Arielle, you’re awesome and that’s a fact!
If anyone thinks otherwise, they’re obviously wack!
Have a wonderful day, partake of some cake!
Blow out the candles and wish something all for your sake!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY ARIELLE!!!

Kelsey Brown 2011

Kelsey Kae, hmm what should I say?
It appears to be your birthday today!
The big 2-0 you have become
And I am quite proud to call you my chum!
Party hard and celebrate lots
Maybe even try pounding on pots!
Let the world know what day it is,
So they can be merry & happy and drink pop with the fizz.

It’s not every day we get to commemorate this mademoiselle
Who is wonderfully awesome – that’s easy to tell.
There’s always a smile genuinely upon your face
Down in the dumps? NO! That’s never the case!
You’re the sweetest chica I ever did meet!
Always kind and sincere, now that’s a great feat!             
To Idaho, in the future we’ll probably go…
To have the time of our lives and freeze in the snow.
It will be a grand adventure for sure
Although our most-used word will turn into “Burrrrrrrrr!!!!”

Now today when you get out of bed,
It’s off to Mexico to honor the sister recently wed.
But we must not forget about you
The one that is twenty now, it’s true
While off you go to that homey homeland,
We’ll be thinking of you…the really great fraaaaaand.

Love you Kelsey! Happy Birthday!! :)

Shelby Sherwood 2011

Shelby dear Shelby! Its birthday time!
Now you will find yourself reading this rhyme.
Woman, you’re awesome and that’s no lie
If I was in snowflake I’d bake you a pie!
The birthday kind, filled with lots of love;
Made from yours truly, not a flying dove.
But alas, in Mesa I do remain
So this little ode will have to accomplish the same.
Expressing my birthday wishes to a lass muy delightful and oh so witty:
When story time comes, laughter explodes… and not in spite of pity
You’re a little comedian with colorful tales
Hmmm maybe we should go swimming with whales!
That could be our next adventure,
But maybe not till we’re old and wearing dentures.
Remember how you were going to teach me how to rope?
But probably I’ll just end up looking like a dope!
That talent is all yours my friend
Along with many others…. You don’t have to pretend!
Shelby, have a wonderful day!
Party hardy and sculpt in some clay!
You’re simply great and that’s easy to see
Don’t forget about me when you’re in Vegas baby!

Happy Birthday Shelbs!

Raegan Elmer 2011

·         Raegan oh Raegan, you're birthday has come
Now it's time to go get some! :)
That's always a fun thing to do...
It's WAY better than being stuck in goo!
I miss you a lot times a lot...
Without you I just want to sit here and rot.
I love you a lot and that’s a fact!
Seeing you is something I have lately greatly lacked!
Let’s fix this soon
And maybe sing a tune.
Because Raegan is twenty
And just a little bit runty!

April Pollock 2011

 Your birthday: at last it has finally come,
How many have you had? It seems to be a great sum.
In other words, i'm saying you're old..
but that is something you dont have to be told!
You can figure that one out all by yourself...
20 is old... even if you are an elf!
But alas, that is something you are not
Unless you’re in hiding, trying not to be caught!
That would be funny... and I would still be your friend
To your rescue, myself I would send!
The moment of truth, it needs to be now!
Are you really an elf? Or maybe a cow?!
Haha just kidding, those things I don’t think!
But what I do know is that you love PINK!
April, you’re awesome and really smart!
Something that’s big is definitely your heart!!
Dang gorgeous is something you ALWAYS are..
And I love dancing with you in the car!
Happy Birthday, girl! I love you lots!
Even more than Sonic’s tater tots!
Have a good day, eat lots of cake..
Celebrate with lots of people, jump in a lake!
Or don't... because you can do whatever you want!
If it's your desire, be a debutant!
That could be funny,
You could make some money..
But whatever, just have a great day!
Let nothing stand in the way!

Cori Thomas 2011

Cori my beautiful, your birthday has come
Now that you're 16, GO GET SOME!
Just kidding, I don't approve of that advice
I don't want you to end up living with mice!
That didn't make any sense, but that's okay...
BECAUSE IT’S YOUR BIRTHDAY TODAY!!!   

Don’t forget to party hard and live it up

Eat lots of cakes and drink from a cup...

Make it fun and keep it real.

I’ll even let you know how I feel     

You’re the prettiest girl I’ve ever seen

When it comes to talents, you’re the queen

I miss you lots and that’s a fact

It’s being in your presence I feel lately I have lacked

You’re the best and always make me smile

You’re closer to my heart than stomach bile

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO AN AMAZING COUSIN

I LOVE YOU A LOT... TIMES FOUR DOZEN! 

Tara Allen 2009

Tara Velate! Oh Tara Velate!

I bet you didn't think your birthday rhyme would come this late!

So, now at the time when you're least expecting

Gather all your roommates round and and start to sing

For it is not everyday that you turn 19 and 2 months!

If you were in Arizona I would buy you a package of runts

But in Utah you are with all it’s cold glory                                                                     I want to fly to you.. but no.. I'm stuck on the Arizona floory

 Tara. I love you and that’s no lie   

I love it when we go to Thanksgiving and eat lots of pie                                             

 Reunions and cousins weekends are great                                                                          

 And I just can’t wait to take pictures on that graffitied freight  

 Now happy 19 and 2 month anniversary of birth                                                                         

To my wonderful cousin of great worth!
