Oh Happy Day! a birthday story.

What a HAPPY DAY!! The Gardner castle was a bustle of activity and birthday cheer. The day began with birthday anthems ringing through the house. It continued with a painting party where the little Michaelangeloes created these masterpieces (after which they took brightly colored baths).

After the royal naps the children were taken to magical McDonald's land where they played in the enchanted forest and ate a delectable feast of chicken nuggets, apple slices, and chocolate milk.

After that it was off to the kingdom's royal library where the prince and princess chose some wonderful stories and "divios" (videos) to take back to the castle. That evening Prince Ben had his very first spaghetti dinner which he THOROUGHLY ENJOYED if you can picture that...and he topped it off with a grand birthday cupcake - the pictures say it all.

After a wonderful day of birthday festivities the sweet Prince Ben was carried - totally exhausted - to his royal crib and left to dream sweet dreams of the joys he will have and the things he will learn in the coming year. Happy Birthday SWEET BOY!
