00:00One peaceful morning, Shrek was stirring something in a big muddy pot outside his cozy swamp house.
00:06It was Fiona's birthday, and he had a secret surprise planned just for her.
00:11I'm making her the world's squishiest, stinkiest, buggiest mud pie. Shrek grinned.
00:17With crunchy beetle topping and a side of swamp slime tea, Donkey trotted over wide-eyed.
00:23You sure she'll like that, Shrek? Of course. Fiona's an ogre, she'll love it.
00:28Meanwhile, Fiona was planning a surprise of her own.
00:33She had secretly invited all their friends, Donkey, Dragon, Puss in Boots, and even Jingy the Gingerbread Man, for a birthday swamp picnic.
00:42As Shrek hid the muddy pie behind a log, Fiona tiptoed behind him.
00:48Shrek, can you help me pick some, um, lily flowers near the big tree?
00:52Lily flowers? Okay.
00:54Shrek scratched his head, suspicious but followed her anyway.
00:58When they reached the big tree, surprise!
01:01All their friends popped out.
01:04They were wearing funny party hats, and throwing swampy confetti, made from moss and frog kisses.
01:10Shrek blinked.
01:11Wait, this is for me?
01:13Fiona laughed.
01:14Nope.
01:15It's your surprise party too, my big swampy sweetie.
01:18Everyone giggled.
01:19Donkey brought out a cake shaped like a bug, dragon blue fire sparklers, and Puss in Boots gave a dramatic bow.
01:27But then Shrek remembered, his surprise.
01:30Wait right here!
01:32He shouted, running to grab the muddy pie.
01:34It was squishy brown, and wiggled a little.
01:38When he gave it to Fiona, she took a huge bite and smiled.
01:42MMM, crunchy spiders?
01:44My favorite!
01:45She said, hugging him tight.
01:47The whole swamp echoed with laughter as they played ogre games.
01:51They danced in the mud, and sang swampy birthday songs.
01:56As the sun set, Fiona leaned on Shrek's shoulder.
01:59This was the best birthday ever, she whispered.
02:02And the stinkiest, Shrek smiled proudly.
02:06From then on, every year they took turns planning the grossest, most ogretastic birthday parties ever.
02:13Because nothing says love like mud pies, bug toppings, and surprises in the swamp.
