"The desire to create is one of the deepest yearnings of the human soul. No matter our talents, education, backgrounds or abilities, we each have an inherent wish to create something that did not exist before. Everyone can create. You don’t need money, position, or influence in order to create something of substance or beauty. You might say, I am not the creative type. If that is how you feel, think again. Creation is your opportunity in this life….. Start small. Creativity does not require a brush, a pen, or the keys of a piano. Don’t let the voice of critics paralyze you. You will make the World a better place. Improve, beautify, extend, smile, cultivate, develop, create."
~President Dieter F. Uchtdorf

Birthday. Again.

No not mine, silly. My handsome husband, Corey!

Sorry the pics or so bad. Couldn't find the camera so I had to use the video recorder. It's great for videos. Not for still pictures.

Like that fireball on his cake? Corey turned 27 and yes I fit 27 candles on his cake. I think that I will keep doing that until he reaches, *gasp*, 30. I don't know if I can fit, let alone light, that many candles for too much longer! Nathan loves singing Happy Birthday and knows all the words. He's quite the singing machine these days. He had fun singing to me, kept singing it all week, then loved singing to Dad, and kept singing all week. Then we celebrated our friend Natalie's birthday. Now yesterday was pop-in-law's birthday so we'll be singing again on Sunday to Grandpa, which will probably make him sing it again all week.



And who doesn't love some bath time pictures while we're at it??






And this...

Happy birthday, Corey!
You are seriously an amazing wife, Mindi! Can I be you in my next life? I don't even think Josh got a birthday cake for his birthday this year. I should be fired.
