HAPPY 32nd BIRTHDAY!!!

Today, my friend, you are 32!

If I could, I’d buy you something new!

I wish I could do lots of fun things for your day,

Or I could fly us somewhere so we could go play.

I’m sorry, I can’t sing a birthday rap,

If I did, it would sound like crap…

If I could write an opera, you’d be the star.

But, sorry, I’m not that skilled, by far.

If I could fly us in a balloon, that would be fun,

But wait, that, you have already done!

If I were there, I could make you a huge birthday cake,

Or I could buy you fun jewelry, but it would have to be fake…

If I could, I would buy us beach homes side by side,

We could sit and talk while we listen to the tide.

I wish for your birthday, I could take you to France,

 Or say that for the rest of your life, you’ll never poop in your pants.

I would love to close down your favorite store,

And tell you to shop ‘til you can’t shop anymore.

If for your birthday, I could grant just one of your wishes…

However, the best I could do is give you one of my dishes? 

If I could arrange for you to be on Broadway for a day,

You better believe I’d try and find a way!

Or, if I could figure out how when you look in a mirror

That you would be able to see yourself clearer.

 

So you could see the outrageously fabulous person staring back at you,

And how people wish they could be as talented and gorgeous as her too.

How lucky those babies are to have their mama,

They’ll be talented and musical with just the right amount of drama. 

My friend, you’re amazing, and if I could,

I’d fly there right now to celebrate your day – I would! 

However, my pockets are very shallow,

And my husband, he’s a poor fellow.

 

Though, I wish I could do all these amazing things for your day,

Just know I love you, and I want everything to go your way!!!!

 

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Memories of Becky by Rachel Connett

The first time I really remember meeting Becky was in the middle of the night I believe, at Parkside, our lovely abode at the time. Becky and Chris were out in the parking lot with the fire department. I don't remember the specifics, but they had to call them for some reason. We chatted for a bit, made sure that they were alright and left them out in the cold. No, it wasn't cold. But I think they were about ready to be let into their apartment again.

Another Parkside parking lot story, which Becky won't want published...Joel and I were coming home and unlocking our door when we hear this yelling and see a blur that was Becky running down the stairs frantically trying to get into her apartment. She was yelling at Chris I think, to help her get the door unlocked and was already undoing her pants by the time she barged into her apartment. When you gotta poop, you gotta poop. She said something along those lines...it was hilarious and Joel and I still reference it today when we are faced with such an emergency.

Of course a lot of favorite memories about Becky involve her Martha Stewart Skills. Personally I prefer Becky to Martha. I always enjoyed going to Becky's apartment.

Becky has a great laugh and a wonderful smile and always makes you feel good and that you are important to her.

I remember staying up too late many times playing games, and we were introduced to Settler's by the Wickstroms (and you and your husband too!)

Becky has a wonderful voice and I treasure a CD she gave us years ago of her singing a few songs.

Fave Becky Memories from the Kings

FAVE BECKY MEMORY FROM WENDY: Oh, there are so many Becky memories I love! But the first thing that comes to mind is Becky laughing... and laughing HARD during the Team Reunion's newlywed game at the phrase, "small pants." I love how she and Chris fit right in to a group they may have only felt kind of a part of initially. They meshed so well and everyone loved them. And when "small pants" came up, Becky's infectious laugh was nonstop, pure joy. She had everyone around her (with a few exceptions) laughing HARD with her. I still crack up just thinking about it.

I LOVE Becky's laugh. Oooh, that reminds me of another memory: Becky and I laughing at the ridiculous Zach Efron movie, 17 Again. I can't think of anyone else who would have made that silly movie so fun. Her sense of humor and FUN spirit is one of the many reasons I love her!! Oh, can I just share one more? I loved when she and Chris sang/be-boxed to me on my birthday, then LIED about their weekend plans so I was shocked when they showed up at my surprise birthday party. And at that birthday party, Becky couldn't have been more charming and fun with my family and friends... letting everyone around her fall in love with her. I especially love the way she bonded with my friends, Nicole and Kelly. Becky is pure fabulous that way.

FAVE BECKY MEMORY FROM HARLEY: When we competed for prizes by cooking dishes and she said my dish was...interesting. AKA ugly, she hated it, but was too nice to say it. I think I made the Great Wall of Tuna.

Mom's Memories of Becky

1. Her name might have been Gus, because Greg was expecting a boy! (He played football and more with Becky growing up, so I guess she was a tomboy)

2. At age 2, she painted her toenails with hobby laquer paint in the middle of the living room carpet. It was less than a year old. The color was fire engine red.

3. She sucked her thumb. It was her best friend

4. She loved to take baths, and so she would stand by the tub and say: bathbathbath, and I want to Hampoo my hair. Her dad still calls her Hampoo at times for a nickname.

5. She learned how to ride a 2 wheel bike at age 3. She loved to ride fast

6. Becky used to make everyone play and dress up for her wedding in preschool. At the time, Brian Vincent was the groom. Of course she was always the bride.

7. Becky loved to hunt for our Christmas tree in the fall with her dad. They would find the perfect tree, mark it, and then never be able to find it again in December! Ask her what happened one time when she had to go "poop" in the woods.

8. Becky had hair bows to match every outfit

9. Becky had a black skirt in 7th grade that she never outgrew. It did get a whole lot shorter, though.

10. Ask Becky about the Grandma panties she got for Christmas during her college years.

11. Becky almost didn't major in communications. Lucky for Intrepid that she did!!!

12. Chris is her best friend and always will be. She has a bunch more best girlfriends too

13. We love watching the old videos of Sunshine Generation

14. She planned her wedding when she was little, and I think it turned out just like she had imagined.

15. She is the most fun to be around! We wish she lived closer!

16. Her friends and family are important to her, so be glad you are a family member or friend!!!!
17. I think I heard about a snow woman during her college years that might have been a tad risque!

18. She asked for pink snowboots from Santa one Christmas, and then was mad that she got them instead of something more fun.

19. She always hung her clothes up on the floor. Ask her about the time I cut up her favorite tee shirt. Hmm. Mean mom

20. When Derrick was born, she wanted to send him back, but my friends all brought baby gifts for Derrick and gifts for Becky too.

21. She didn't cry on her first day of school, but I did.

22. Becky has never been bashful.....at least not much! She knocked on a neighbor's door when she was about 3, and asked if there was a kid she could play with... Jenetta and her became immediate best friends. Does that surprise you?

23. She calls me almost everyday, and I would miss it if she didn't.

24. I loved to read her misadventures on the metro, How about some new ones from Salt Lake, Becky?

25. She was a good sport to have a lot of Halloween Costumes made from BOXES! Thanks, Becky

26. She was ruined for good when her panties didn't match her dress as a toddler. No wonder she has become such an expert shopper!

27. She always buys the best gifts, and makes me feel special

28. She made it fun for Derrick when her Dad and I would have a date night and leave her and Derrick home alone for a few hours. Derrick was so excited to do all the things she had planned. I think he still looks forward to the fun times when we visit Chris and Becky

29. And, my favorite all time memory of Becky is when she asked Chris when the dry cleaning would be ready to pick up from the Cleaners, and he had accidently dropped it off to the Salvation Army box with some discards from a recent apartment clean. Whoops.

Happy Birthday, Becky. You have made being your mom and adventure! Love, MOm

28!!!

Happy Birthday Rebecca Wickstrom!

I hope your day is extra special! Filled with good food, good friends, good fun, and GOOD PRESENTS!!

I think it speaks volumes about you that you stay in touch with so many friends. Obviously, you are an extraordinary person that everyone loves. This year I invited some people you may know to send you a little message on your birthday. I hope know how loved and special you are!! Your friends and family are sending you a lot of love!

I love having you as a friend, and think you need to be on the HOT TAMALE TRAIN for your birthday!! WOO WOO!

I hope all your birthday wishes come true! I love you bunches!

Happy Birthday!!

XOXO,
Holly

28 + Reasons Why I Love Becky Wickstrom

BY: Holly Hamilton

So, you’re turning 28 today,
And I thought I’d let you know,
Just how wonderful I think you are,
And why I love you so.

It’s not your fashion that makes you great
Or your two thousand pairs of shoes.
It’s that you’re willing to listen to me
And cheer me up whenever I have the blues.

It’s that you still love me,
Even if I say something dumb.
And, that you let your husband eat lemonheads,
Until his tongue goes numb.

I love that you let me take you “slumming,”
And that you are often my creative muse.
I love that on all of our shopping trips,
You always find some really great shoes.

I love that you’re my kindred kitchen spirit,
And that you enjoy the same wonderful food.
I love your creativity,
And your positive attitude.

I love your great faith,
And your super cheerful smile.
And the fact that in high heels,
You could totally walk three miles.

I think you are the most gracious person,
And you have such a generous heart.
I really love those things about you,
It kills me that we’re so far apart!

I love how when we play games,
Your singing drives Chris crazy.
And I love that when you come to visit,
We can stay in our PJs and be lazy.

I love laughing with you,
It must be that endearing wheeze.
Why did you move so far away?
Can you come back, please?

I love how you’re so prepared,
With your stash of gifts and bins of toys,
I love that you’re such a great “aunty,”
To so many little girls and boys.

Being thoughtful is one of your greatest traits,
I totally love that about you.
You’re always thinking of others,
And what surprises you can do.

I love the fact that you are “family,”
I wouldn’t have it any other way.
I love chit chatting with you
When our husbands go out to play.

I love that you think my husband’s funny,
And how you ask him to tell his stories, “please.”
It’s fun to hear you laugh at them,
Especially the part where he “bends his knees.”

I love how you take the time
To be such a wonderful friend,
To support and lift us up,
If there were a broken heart, you’d help it mend.

Another thing I love about you
Is that your hair can sport great curls.
I also think it says a lot about you,
That you keep in touch with so many of your girls.

To describe in words how amazing you are
Is really very tough.
The words nice, and sweet, and generous,
Just don’t seem to be enough.

I hope you know how much you are loved,
You are one very special gal.
Have a happy, happy birthday,
And enjoy the words from all your pals!

19 and for keeping track of peoples' likes and dislikes
20 to help them feel comfortable

21 It's easy to love Becky
22 for her beauty

28 Reasons Why I Love Becky Wickstrom

By: Ida Dawn McDonald Zeiler

Reason: Beck is not just gorgeous, she is Glorious!

My Darling Beck -

What can I say? I don't think 28 is a number high enough. You are one of my dearest friends. I think it would be accurate to say that you truly know my soul. I count you as a sister. [plus, my mom counts you - Rebecca Jane]

I love that you can make a short chat or a long chat feel like a warm hug. I love that you are comfortable laughing or crying with me. I love that you are the most selfless person I've ever met. I love your example of womanhood. Becky, you are not just gorgeous, you are glorious!

I was reaching back into my archives of memories with you. I cannot imagine what my BYU life would have been like without. DT would have been flat out boring. Do you remember the fashion shows you would put on with Eileen? I think the hardest I have ever laughed in my life was on the night before your wedding when we had a viewing of the Freshman Video.

Looking back at sophmore year, I realized that I never did make it through the marathon story of how your summer had gone. It was a tale that lasted over 2 or 3 hours. I recall hearing the beginning close to half a dozen times. I believe I ended up asleep on the floor before you were done each time. :) Speaking of floors, I remember you sleeping in the middle of our hallway during finals with the kitchen timer. I hated that kitchen timer and how it would go off every 5 mintues for like an hour. I remember you braiding my hair into some of the coolest styles. I almost peed my pants when you walked into the Honor Code Office with a beard on and requested a "beard waiver" from the Director. I loved the bewildered looks you got as you made me walk home with you during finals because you had on a half man, half woman make up job.

Junior year, first day back from break, I remember you running into my apartment and meeting Christopher for the first time. I loved getting to road trip down to Colorado. I remember watching you walk out of the Denver Temple with the biggest glow [since I wasn't endowed yet I wasn't inside]. I told myself that when I found someone that could make me glow like that I would know he was it for me. I remember sleep overs when Chris was out of town for business.

I remember rushing back into town and meeting up with you before our graduation ceremony. You had pick up my cap and gown, and ironed it for me. I loved getting to celebrate the end of BYU with you.

A year later you were a gorgeous bridesmaid at my wedding. I loved having you in the bride's room as I got ready. About 2 years later it was fun to visit you in DC and have you rub my pregnant belly.

I could literally go on for days. By the way, most of these memories are the ones proper enough for print :)

Becky, I pray that my daughter will have some of your amazingness rub off on her. I also pray that she too will find a friend that is as dear to her as you are to me. Thank you for always making me feel wonderful. I love you!

Love,
Kara
