First off, I have to just say that I LOVED general conference. There were so many good talks. Many that I felt were answers to my prayers. I really liked Elder Holland's talk about angels. "There are angels both seen and unseen." President Uchtdorf's message of hope was so inspiring! I loved the messages from President Monson. I loved how he urged us to Enjoy the Journey... NOW. And how he said, "the Lord is not asking us to walk across the country, he's asking us to walk across the street." Super good talks. We went and watched the last session at my parents house this afternoon with lots of kiddos running around, so there are a few talks that I want to watch again.
September seems like it is the month filled with birthdays! There are so many, Melani, Grandpa Glauser, Alecia, Dad, Grandma Facer, Travis, Kedric... I'm sure I'm missing several...
My Dad had his 60th this year! I just have to say that he is SO awesome! The only thing he wanted for his birthday was for all of his children to attend a temple session together. We all did, and it was an awesome experience. He has that quiet confidence that was talked about in conference. He is such a good person, and Christlike in so many ways. I love you Dad! This picture was taken when he came to visit us in Germany. This is one of the towns he served his mission in 40 years ago.
And little buddy, Kedric. He turned two. He is such a funny kid. He's so entertaining, loving, and caring. Yet, he does throw tantrums, and gets a mean streak more than I'd like. He gets mad a lot lately. He does get so excited to see his cousins by greeting them with a big hug, and most of the time, it's so big he ends up tackling them to the ground! He's all boy complete with the low, grumbling voice. He loves nursery, coloring, singing, and dancing. He loves to follow Reilyn around doing whatever she is, even if it is dressing up like a princess! Here's so pictures of his birthday...
cousins, Maya and Eva. According to Kedric, they are Maya and Maya.
little Maizyn....
I had to throw in pictures of the sesame street cupcakes. Reilyn helped me decorate them.
Reilyn and Kedric are such good friends. They have such a love-hate relationship, but oh the joy when I catch them playing so well together. If I would've taken this picture two minutes later, they would have been fighting and crying in it! :)

Happy Birthday to everyone!! Cute Kids and cute cupcakes. Enjoy your kids, they grow up fast.
Wow he looks older too. Those cupcakes are cute but look a little time consuming to be eaten up in like two seconds. Hope we get to see you this weeekend.
Kedric is such a cutie! I love the cupcakes! Maddie's birthday is on Nov 1st. Can you tell me how you made the cupcakes actually look like Elmo? lizcarr13 at yahoo dot com
I liked conference too :)
Kedric is such a little James...I can't believe he is two already. Time goes too fast. I can't wait to see you guys!
He looks like he's 2 in these pictures! Why do they grow up so fast?! Dad is kinda looking 60, too! Sad, but true!
Ditto to the conference comments! I loved it too. There were some amazing talks.
I can see why Kedrick would call them Maya and Maya. That is cute.
I look at the pictures of Kedrick and they remind me of pictures of James at that age...you can definately tell he takes after his daddy!
Awesome job on the cute cupcakes!
You're a doll! Thanks for filling me in, I'll let you know how they turn out :)
PS I love the pic of your Dad at the top.
