Rebekah-Elizabeth Noe'lani - Sweet 16th Birthday

Yesterday, Friday June 26th was my granddaughter's 16th birthday. Her full name is Rebekah-Elizabeth Noe'lani. Elizabeth is after me (her first name is hyphenated like mine is) and Noe'lani is my daughter Denise's middle name, her mom. She is lovingly called "Bekah". She is a lovely girl, not only to look at, also to be around. She enjoys reading and is writing at least a couple of books. There may be more that she is working on, I don't remember exactly. We thoroughly enjoyed seeing her on our visit to Enterprise. This picture was taken in Destin, FL where we drove to on the Sunday before we left Alabama. That is the Gulf of Mexico in the background. I will be sharing more pictures of our visit to the Gulf later.

Here are the words to the song "Sixteen Candles" sung by The Crests back in the late '50's. I included this in the birthday card I made for her and edited the words to reflect what I wanted to say to her.

SIXTEEN CANDLES
Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday, Rebekah-Elizabeth Noe'lani
Oh, we love you so!!
Sixteen Candles make a lovely light
But not as bright as your eyes today
Blow out the candles, make your wish come true
For we'll be wishing that you love us too
You're only sixteen
But you're our teenage queen
You're the prettiest, loveliest girl we've ever seen
Sixteen Candles in our heart will glow
For ever and ever for we love you so
You're only sixteen
But you're our teenage queen
Oh, you're the prettiest, loveliest girl we've ever seen
Sixteen Candles in our heart will glow
For ever and ever for we love you so
For we love you so!!!!
I got a FB message from her today and she loved her card! :))

  2. I got to thinking last night after I did this, I probably infringed on copyright laws by doing this! :( Oh well!

  3. In some of my earlier posts of recipes, I would just take a picture of the page in whatever cookbook I got the recipe from and post that. I realized later that doing so is probably a no-no, so I stopped. Now I type the recipe out.
