Happy Birthday Elder Archuleta!
Posted by djafan on Friday, December 28, 2012
If only there were two of you
One to do what you have to do
The other to stay behind for fans
Your family and all the clan
But that’s too selfish to consider
We’ll have to be content with twitter
And with the fact that there can be
Only one @DavidArchie.

Dear David,
Have a wonderful birthday! We are thinking about you on this very special day!
ktiitk
There will be more birthday cakes and hopefully a Happy Birthday song video of some kind from us to you even if it is just in our thoughts.
We are enjoying the videos of ‘The Prayer’ and other Christmas carols! Missing you on this special day!

Here’s a wonderful tribute to David by Latina magazine, in honor of his 22nd BD! Wouldn’t it be fun to be able to watch all of these videos together today, celebrating the one we ♥ so much? Blessings to you, David, on your special day!

I find myself having time this a.m. Searched for things pertaining to David and his Birthday:
David wears textured vests better than anyone! Seems they were popular the day he was born: http://articles.latimes.com/1990-12-28/news/vw-7315_1_silk-cummerbund
Q: What day of the week was december 28 1990?
A: December 28, 1990 fell on a Friday.
Hmmmm, his double digit year falls on a Friday too!
Dec. 28, 1990 Florida State beats Penn State, 24-17.
Dec. 28, 1990 Vanna White gets married. (lol, don’t know why I found that newsworthy!)

(did you see the Governor of Arkansas has the last name Beebe?)
LOL! I had no idea David shared a birthday with Edgar Winter! Ha, I saw him in the late 70’s. What a contrast to David and his music!

Angelica –
Ha! Richard Chamberlin sang: “Why Can’t I Be Two People!?” in The Slipper and the Rose. (One of my favorite shows.) I’ll bet DA thought that more than once as he was on AI and had to deal with all the demands that were put on his time, etc.
On the other hand, that picture of him on the video is almost overload. Maybe – wishes aside – one of him is enough. (Can you imagine two? One on each end of the stage? *_* Singing to each other!!!!!! Ramping it Up!!!!!!!!
Happy Birthday Mr. D, Elder Archuleta, Oldest son, Singer extraordinaire, Mission companion, David-heart-of-gold, Friend to many, and Almost Angel. Happy, happy birthday. May there be many, many more!!!
(No accident that this spark of life came to earth smack between two celebrations: one, of light; and the other, of new beginnings.)

Remember when he used to ask “Is it anyone’s birthday?” and they would all say yes and he would sing Happy Birthday to “you and you and you and you” etc. (sigh)
Surely today he feels the change in the air currents drifting around the world as we all sing Happy Birthday to him.
Boy that cake is scrumptious!! Please give me a piece with strawberries.
Loved that little video, Bebe. Especially the chickens part. And the Bench part., And the rainbows behind me part. And all the parts that show David.

I was looking around for something to add to this post and came across this interesting “horoscope” type thing. 😉 You can enter a person’s birth date http://www.paulsadowski.com/Birthday.asp and on another link, http://www.paulsadowski.com/Numbers.asp you can enter a person’s full name. Here is some of the info that came up for David’s birthday. I left out some of the more mundane factoids listed. I put my name in and found that if I used my maiden name I got a better reading.

You are a person very much inclined to give help and comfort to those in need. You have a natural penchant for working with the old, the young, the sick, or the underprivileged. Although you may have considerable creative and artistic talents, the chances are that you will devote yourself to an occupation that shows concern for the betterment of the community.
The positive side of the number 6 suggests that you are very loving, friendly, and appreciative of others. You have a depth of understanding that produces much sympathetic, kindness, and generosity. The qualities of the 6 make the finest and most concerned parent and one often deeply involved in domestic activities. Openness and honesty is apparent in your approach to all relationships.
If there is an excess of the number 6 in your makeup, you may exhibit some of the negative traits associated with this number. There may be a tendency for you to be too exacting and demanding of yourself. In this regard, you may at times sacrifice yourself (or your loved ones) for the welfare of others.

The negative aspects of the 8 soul urge are the often dominating and exacting attitude. You may have a tendency to be very rigid, sometimes stubborn.
Your Inner Dream number is: 7
An Inner Dream number of 7 means:
You dream of having the opportunity to read, study, and shut yourself off from worldly distractions. You can see yourself as a teacher, mystic, or ecclesiastic, spending your life in the pursuit of knowledge and learning.

Welcome back Sky! It’s like the dark ages when your internet is out. I love the picture in #13 because he is being so careful to blow the candles ever so gently. His lips and the leaning flame are perfect. 😉
I got a big envelope today in the mail.It had a Utah return address. I was so excited. I thought a fan had sent me the 2013 David calendar. OHH!! When I opened it there was a lovely Utah tourism calendar. It was sent from the Utah tourism office. I wonder why they sent it to me? It’s hanging in my “kitchen” which doubles as the laundry room. ( Long story 🙂 )
I also received a Christmas card and B’day card recently. Both were HAND MADE by Tawna. She puts a lot of effort in her cards. Thanks Tawna!

Thanks for the weather report in Chile, Abrra. I’m freezing my tuchus off.
That pic in #13 is sweet. What struck me is, who blows out candles from that far away? Someone with the lung capacity to force a sufficient volume of air through a vocal chord to hold a note for like a minute and a half, that’s who.
See y’all in unplugged.
