Rebekah is 14!

This beautiful, smart, funny, talented girl turned 14 and took another step further into teenagehood.

Rebekah on her birthday.

We were able to celebrate her birthday with a family dinner on her ACTUAL birthday! Rebekah requested egg salad sandwiches, so we had that (along with fixings for other sandwiches).

 Laughing at the present Ana gave her: a half-full bottle of Propel. Bekah had drunk part of it a couple of days prior. Ana thought she should wrap it up and give it to her sister.

The balloon Grandpa Dennis gave her sailing away. Winnie accidentally let go of it. 

The barfing ball that Grandpa Dennis got from the dollar store as a gag present (quite literally). It was a hit with all the kids. Rebekah got cash from both sets of grandparents and her parents. She put it toward a set of 7 recorders she ordered from Amazon.

 Ana trying to light the candles while Seth shelters them from the breeze. I don't know why we even attempt candle lighting when we hold birthday dinners outside.
