Welcome to Makeup, the kids' bedtime rompice.

Tonight's Makeup story is a request from two brothers who are named Ted and Ernie,

and Ted and Ernie live in Australia.

Ted and Ernie asked for us to make up a story about a gorilla and a jewel.

Once upon a time, a long time ago, there were two big boys named Ted and Ernie.

Ted and Ernie lived in a silly house right near the beach. Their house was so silly because there was a tree growing inside their

house and there had to be a hole in the roof so that the top of the tree could grow out of the

roof of the house. And the tree went right through their living room and there were branches on the tree.

So if Ted and Ernie wanted to climb on top of the tree, and there were branches on the tree. So if Ted and Ernie wanted to

climb on top of the tree, they could get out of their house by climbing up the tree and climbing

on top of the attic. When they got in top, they got on top of the roof of their house, and they had

a special slide that went from the roof of their house

all the way to the beach below them, and Ted and Ernie used to take turns going wee and sliding

down the slides. Well, one day, Ted and Ernie brought their digging equipment like shovels and buckets and rakes,

and they brought it down the side with them, and they went with their mama and dad to the beach

next to their silly house with the tree in it. When they got to the beach, Ted and Ernie started to build a big sandcastle.

And as they were building the big sandcastle, Ernie was in charge of digging, and Ted would

pat the castle, and it got bigger and bigger.

It started to look like there were some storm clouds in the sky because the clouds were kind of dark, and it also might have looked like there was a little bit of lightning far away.

So Ted and Ernie told their parents it was probably time for them to go back to their house.

Just as they said that, they saw something flying with butterfly wings that were seethrew, so you could look right through the wings.

And the thing that was flying had long blonde hair, and it was wearing a princess dress, and it looked like a fairy, and it was holding a magic wand.
