Happy Birthday David Archuleta
Posted by Abrra on Saturday, December 27, 2014
Dear David,
We first met you when you were just 16 and on our TV screens every week for months. We feel like we have watched you grow from a child to a man over these last eight years. There were times when we worried that you had too much going on that might be overwhelming for you. At other times we experienced a David drought while you worked on writing or charity work.
It’s been a joy to follow you in your career because you gave us so much beyond the music. You gave us new friendships and the fun of visiting new cities to catch a concert. Being a fan gave us a chance to meet up with fan friends who shared the same excitement of seeing you for the first time in person. These may seem like small things, but they mean so much to us.
In honor of your 24th birthday, we would like to give something back to you. It has no tangible value nor is it something new but you could say it’s the gift that keeps on giving. We give to you our fan loyalty and support. We understand that it will take some time to get back on track with music and concerts. If you ever wonder if your fans will be there for your new music, the answer is YES!
Happy Birthday, David! From everyone at The Voice.

This is off topic but still relevant to David as I can see him having a set up like this for writing music if he stays with an indie career. If an artist has the vocal skills, anything is possible 🙂 Kurt Bestor has worked many times with David on CFTH Tour and the BEGIN album.

Perfect video for David’s birthday, Marcella! Nice work.
Abrra, perfect puzzle for his birthday too! Very colorful and festive.
On a side note, the thought for Dec. 28th in my positive thinking book is “Set aside a few minutes every day to say aloud such words as “exciting,” dynamic,” “marvelous,” “fabulous,” “terrific.” I think we do pretty well in that aspect, since we say that every day about David! A perfect saying for his birthday! 🙂

Las lágrimas no son siempre signos de tristeza. También sirven para demostrar alegría, como en la Navidad y el Año Nuevo; cuando triunfa un familiar, un amigo, el equipo deportivo favorito o el candidato electo de nuestras preferencias políticas. Pero este domingo, experimentamos lágrimas de emoción incontenibles, al escuchar la disertación de nuestra nieta KRYSTAL CAULEY que partirá a misión de la Iglesia SUD, y cómo la inspiró en esa decisión al escuchar a su primo David Archuleta cuando cantó a su regreso (también de misión) un Himno contentivo de estas frases “Con el Salvador al lado, ¿qué haría yo?”. Otra vez pañuelos al rostro, al aparecer David, en persona, interpretando la canción…..A propósito, en este 28 de diciembre: ¡FELIZ CUMPLEAÑOS, DAVID ARCHULETA!
Tears are not always a sign of sadness. Also serve to demonstrate joy, as in Christmas and New Year ; when wins a family, a friend, the team Sports favorite or the candidate – elect of our political preferences. However, this Sunday, we are going through tears of excitement incontenibles, to listen to the dissertation of our granddaughter Krystal cauley I will build a mission of the church Sud, and how the inspired in the decision to listen Your cousin David Archuleta when he sang to her back ( also a mission ) a song contentivo these phrases ‘ with the Savior of the other hand, what would I do?’. Once again tissues in the face, to appear David in person, interpreting the song….. A purpose in this 28 December: Happy Birthday, David Archuleta!

Dear Djafan
I am sending prayers your way, and sympathy, and love. Both of my parents have made that passage and it is a passing that some part of all of us makes with them. There is no way to hold them back, and we can feel torn as part of us goes along on that journey.
But also, some part of them stays with us. I have been so very blessed by my parents. I pray that the blessings you may feel as you gather together as loved ones, will cloak you with warmth and love and sustaining strength. Not just for now, but for always.

La acompaño y mi hombro siempre estará disponible para una amiga de tantos años y aventuras. Que Dios le de serenidad a Usted y a su familia. Un beso de su amiga.

Interesting article about former idols from American Idol. David got a mention here:
“13. Archuleta: Mission Accomplished
To the delight of David Archuleta fans, the season-seven runner-up returned from a two-year Mormon mission to Chile in March. Since arriving back in his home state of Utah, the 23-year-old has invited fans to submit their own versions of the song “Glorious” from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints’ feature-length documentary, Meet the Mormons, released in October. More than 400 submissions from eight different countries made the final cut for the three-minute video.”
