We invited the uncles, aunts, grandparents and cousins over for a pizza dinner, goody bag hunt and cake.

Opening presents while surrounded by sisters and cousins.
A framed picture of the Snowflake Arizona Temple. I told Rebekah to pick a temple picture for me to get printed and frame. This is the one she chose.
Grandpa Dennis and Grandma Susan gave her a new hand. (Inside was cash.) Rebekah received a temple picture and some church clothes from us; cash from Grandma Susan and Grandpa Dennis; a water bottle/lantern and mosquito repelling bracelet from Grandma and Grandpa Scott; a Hobby Lobby gift card from Uncle T and Aunt McKall; and the game Telestrations from Mack and Tav.
Eating carrot cake with a broken finger.
The family party was a success, and Seth and I also got to go up to girls' camp for an hour on her birthday to bring yet another carrot cake and eat it with the Young Women and their leaders. (Poor Bekah couldn't catch a break from family even while at camp. Her mom and dad were up one evening, her grandpa was up all one day as a priesthood leader, her grandma was up for an hour visiting with the stake Young Women presidency, and her great aunt was there the whole time as a ward Young Women leader.)

Rebekah is such a mature, responsible, fun, funny, smart, hardworking, talented young lady. She loves softball, the piano, her baritone, Hunger Games, Harry Potter, sketching cartoons and creating posters in photo manipulation software.
