HAPPY BIRTHDAY BEN


Here are a few heartfelt wishes, and some not so heartfelt, for you on your big day turning 30.....


From Addison:


Ben is turning 30

but he still is sturdy.

He likes to play basketball

and makes my older brother fall.

He has a wife and 3 kids who love him very much

and his shots are very clutch


From Nairne:


GAME OVER


Nairne and Ben

Playing b-ball before going to the den

Nairne driving the lane

Breaking Ben's ankles causing him great pain


This time Ben drives into the key

Getting swatted past the fence giving him misery

10-3 is the final score

Ben would've won if Nairne didn't have swats counted up to 4.


From Hollan:


Believer

Excellent

Nifty

Jubilant

Amazing

Mature

Intelligent

Nimble


From Seattle:


My uncle is tall

He is turning 30

He still plays ball

And he is still very dirty ( in a nice way)


From Kim:


There once was a man named Ben

Who was amazing with the pen

He'd write lines and verses

without any curses

And I can say I knew him when....


From Mike:


Thirty years ago on a coast far away

was born a boy with red hair, not gray

An Eagle Scout, returned missionary and Dad

A husband, a provider, Elders Quorom President, not bad

from Hingham to Sandy he's pretty handy

according to Gina, he's a dandy

30 more years and you'll be sixty

he thinks he's the Hulk, well maybe Bill Bixby

with Sara and Evan and Kamri in tow

he's the best Dad they'll ever know.

Go forward Ben, may your best years lie ahead

whatever you do, don't let this poem go to your head.
