Happy Birthday Michael!

Today (August 29, 2010) is MJ 52nd Birthday...Yesterday, August 28, 2010,  Joesph "Joe" Jackson, Gary's Mayor Clay and Kellie Patterson held a Birthday Party for Michael at his childhood home in Gary Indiana. 

The 8 foot tall, black marble 'Moonwalking Michael' monolith, stands in the front yard greeting fans from around the world. Happy Birthday Michael Jackson!  

I got there just at the start of the Cake Cutting Ceremony .  Led by Michael's father, Joe Jackson.

Several cakes were cut by Joe and the cakes were enjoyed by the MJ Fans after the cutting.

And thanks MJ's Fans and the people of Gary for their never-ending love and support of the Jackson Family.
