Mama
G! Mama G!!
Happy birthday to you from me!
You deserve a ginormous golden birthday crown,
Because you now have {HALF A CENTURY} down!
Over the hill came and went - now 50 years is nigh!
Do your first graders even know how to count that high?? :)
You’re stinkin old, but that’s okay…
Because I’ll still love you anyway! :)
Happy birthday to the greatest ma of all,
The one who’s been there since I was small.
Your humble example has taught me everything I know,
A couple times you even tried to teach me how to sew -
Unfortunately, that one never faired out so well…
But luckily many others have been plastered into my brain cells!
I hope your day is a joy and a delight!
I wish I was there instead of this freezing cold site!
Happy birthday mama!! :)

But so are you – Because you go to school!

Even when we play games outside and you start to perspire!

Sometimes we go to Haigler to fish, swim & play card
games forever!
Which always leads to telling stories – though they’re rarely clever!

But it’s always good company - & full of laughs
Even when people try to look like giraffes!

Mighty ARIZONA – for all to adorn!
With its natural
beauty, a glorious sight
One of a kind sunsets almost every single night!
Sedona’s red rocks make a worthy companion
To our wonder of the world – the one & only Grand Canyon!
Pine trees up north, saguaros throughout
Help this place stay lovely – even while in a drought!

With dry riverbeds 10
months out of the year,
to us a creek is a river & a REAL river is just weird!
Water sources are dirty & green in this lovely place
except lakes Powell and Mead – Our saving grace (thanks NV & UT)

Oh Arizona: Where
natural disasters are never a concern
but 10 minutes outside leads to a blistery sunburn!
where 5 days a year it not just rains but POURS!
& all the neighborhood kids run quickly outdoors.
If you don’t like dust you should probably move…
because we have dust storms on steroids… called a haboob!

We take pride in being
the wisest state in the nation
recognizing daylight savings time is just an irritation!
Also for making the bolo tie the official state neckwear
& having more boats per capita than any other state – how queer

3 cheers to this
glorious state I love
with towns you’ve probably never heard of…
Pima, Jerome, Kingman, Globe & Bisbee??
But each with hundreds of years of their own history!
We’re home to the legendary shootout at the OK corral
Where Wyatt Earp probably left many with a low morale.
We also host the lost Dutchman mysterious tale
With the whereabouts of the gold mine no one can nail!

I love this state in
it’s scorching hot glory
& that my friends, is definitely a true story!
With history so neat
This state cannot be beat!
This desert landscape is usually a beauty
& with our perfect winters we probably sound snooty!
Arizona sure has a lot to give..
That’s why it’s the NUMBER ONE place to live!

Happy 100th

Ps. There are Native
Americans galore
& mormons there are even more!
We have the suns, Cardinals, and Diamondbacks!
Go to a game and eat some crackerjacks!
The spring training cactus league is grand
& many important people have roamed this land
The dbacks won a championship… that was fun
Ok now I really am done.

Megan & Marcus Engagement 2011
Megs…
Congratulations on your engagement,
I’m sure you’re both thrilled with this arrangement!
You’re as happy as can be,
Something that is a joy to see
Now please don’t go into estrangement! ;)
It all started with a frozen bag of peas…
But led to a kind fellow down on his knees..
I knew the day would come,
That you 2 would succumb,
Now you’ll tell your kids good things come from veggies!
I guess I’ll have to stop making fun of Marcus's head..
Because now you’re all in love & soon you will be wed!
But for real, I’m oh so happy for you!
And Marcus for you I truly am, too!
But fyi, I might not think of anything to make fun of instead :)
I love you guys, have a terrific day!
Enjoy the first one with a new fiancé!
Presidents weekend better come fast!
So I can see your beautiful face AT LAST!
And talk & laugh and maybe have a Disney sceneit replay??!

Rachel Hicks 2011
My dearest Rachel: Today’s the day, it’s finally here!
As of right now… YOU CAN OFFICIALLY DRINK BEER!!
You’re also one year older….and wiser too
So you’ll be staying away from that smelly brew! :)
But we can still party hardy all the day long-
With cake, food, and friends and even a song!
All for you – the lady everyone loves!
Who is even more special than 2 flying doves!!
Such a kind little lass, always thinking of others,
Offering everything you have – as selfless as a mother!
You’ll join in on the crazy, you’re sometimes a goof…
But the moment someone needs you… it’s like a magical *POOOOOF*
You’re ALWAYS there with a listening ear,
Giving great advice until given the “all clear”
Such a beautiful woman in numerous ways,
Also a brilliant student – especially on English Essays!
You’re the best of the best and I love you dearly!
But come April… I’ll be missing you SEVERELY!!
Hawaii will gain what Arizona will lose-
But what the heck?! We’re supposed to come in twos!
Good thing we have had wonderful memories galore!
Probably because living with you is the opposite of a bore!
I love you Rachel, have a fabulous day!!
Maybe consider going to the Chinese Buffet!
Just stay clear of the muscles – we don’t want you sick!
This day is for YOU – the one and only Rachel the Hick! Oh, I mean Hicks! :)

Dallin Brown 2011
Dal Pal!
Another year gone, it’s birthday time again!
You’re getting kinda old… can I get an amen?!
Just kidding, we’ll save that for a later date.
Right now, celebrations are in order for this lad who’s top-rate!
So gather your friends round & round,
They’ll sing together and produce a mighty sound.
They’ll come with balloons & even a cake,
Waitin’ to dance the night away until feel start to ache.
Or maybe you’d rather have a night out on the town?
Just make it complete by wearing a birthday crown!
Any of these things I would definitely promote.
But wait? You say none of them float your boat?…
Everything will be okay, you can do as YOU please
It’s all up to you because you’re seriously the bees knees!

I thought about getting you another potato off the floor,
But luckily for you, I’m not in Thatcher anymore!
So my birthday wish is simply this,
Have an enjoyable year full of good times and bliss!
Because you definitely deserve the best my friend,
Always thinking of others & giving a hand to lend.
With you many good times seem to roll,
& funny things happen – quite the opposite of dull.
Now today on this anniversary of your birth
I’ll shout out loud to my favorite dallin brown on this earth!
