The McDonald's Happy Meal celebrated it's 30th birthday! (I feel kind of old, now.)

In honor of the 30th Birthday of the Happy Meal, McDonald’s brought back one of its most popular Happy Meal toys ever – Ty® Teenie Beanie Babies® plush toys (I received a set). Through August 13, you can get one of 30 different Anniversary Teenie Beanie Babies with a Happy Meal purchase.

To celebrate this milestone, McDonald’s commissioned a survey to find the Top 10 “Happiest Cities for Families” in America. The Top 10 “Happiest Cities for Families” include:

1. Minneapolis, Minn.
2. Atlanta, Ga.
3. Virginia Beach, Va.
4. Washington, DC
5. Portland, Ore.
6. Denver, Colo.
7. Baltimore, Md.
8. Seattle, Wash.
9. Kansas City, Mo.
10. Austin, Texas

McDonald's Happy Meal has really grown up, because it has it's own Happy Meal Facebook fan page!

No compensation other than the Beanie Babies as described above was received for this post. I just thought it looked like fun. That's all.
