A Fairy Tale

Once upon a time in a land called California, a beautiful girl baby was born. She was destined to be a Princess. All her life she was loved and cared for by her benevolent father, The King and his Queen, her wicked mother (all fairy tales have to have a wicked Queen in them...) The little princess grew and learned many things and was beloved by all who knew her.

One day, when the Princess was 18 her parents told her it was time to further her education and that they were sending her far, far away to another land full of ice and snow and potatoes. "No!" cried the Princess! "No!"

So, much to her dismay, they packed up her little white carriage and drove her off to her new home. The little Princess was not happy, she had a subject in her castle that was mean, and there were certainly a lot of frogs in this frozen place! But she stayed and like all good princesses, made the best of it.

The summer came and she came home to her parent's kingdom. All of a sudden...the far, far away land looked awfully good to her and when the time to go back came, she packed her own little white carriage!!

After a few weeks in her college kingdom, she met a Prince, actually, he was more like the court Jester. He was goofy and funny and made the fair Princess laugh. But he was slow on the uptake.

The holidays came and the fair Princess went home to her family. She found that she missed the goofy guy in the land of snow and potatoes. She was so happy when she would get messages and phone calls from him. She really liked this frog, only he wasn't so froggish, he was more Princely.
He made her laugh and that was a good thing to the Princess.

Time went on and the lovely Princess and the Prince dated. FINALLY he got around to kissing her. "This one's a keeper" thought the Princess. The King and Queen were happy that their little Princess was so happy. After some time listening to the Princess talk about this young Prince, they decided to see for themselves. So they loaded up their other two young Princes and made the journey to the frozen land.

They learned that the Prince was indeed a Prince! He was worthy of their little Princess. They left to travel home knowing their sweet girl was in good hands.

One evening, the Prince called. He wanted to talk to the benevolent King and the wicked Queen. He told them that he loved their daughter and wanted permission to marry her. He promised that he would take care of her and love her always. The King and Queen were happy, the young princes' were happy and they were certain the charming, in love Princess would also be happy.

So, one day, the Prince got down on one knee and proposed marriage to the beautiful Princess.




He gave her a beautiful gift to symbolize his devotion and love. She accepted his gift humbly and happily.

They will be sealed for time and all eternity August 2, 2008 in the beautiful castle on the hill called the Oakland Temple.

And they will live happily ever after.
