 Orion got a big huge box of chocolates on Valentine's day from Aunt Macy This is the biggest box of chocolates he has ever gotten.
                       Orion is one happy guy.  I guess Aunt Macy kind of likes Orion a little bit.
                                                                     Peek a boo Orion

                                                     This is great.  Can I eat them all at once?

Addison and Payson and Valentine's Chocolates

 Hey!  You have some chocolates too.  I found some also.  Do you know how to open them?
 Addison says:  My lable looks like this with some chocolate candy on it..  Payson says:  My lable looks the same.
Won't anyone help us get some yummy chocolates today.  It is Valentine's day. 

Payson and Valentines

 Hey!  Look, I found a big huge Valentine.  I think I can open it too!
 I got that outer fold of paper off.  I wonder how to open the rest of it.
Hey!  Can anyone help me?  I want some chocolate!

Addi-Belle and Valentines

 Hey, is this huge box of Chocolates for me?  Hey hey I said!!
 Well, I am just going to try and open it.  I would like to have one right now!
 No Addi-Belle.....it is not for you......
Are you sure this huge box of Chocolates is not for me?

Valentine's Day for Payson and Addison

 Kindercare Learning Centers are where Payson and Addison go during the day.  On Valentine's Day they made Valentine boxes out of kleenex boxes for all the one year olds.  All the one year olds were assigned to bring a Valentine for each person on  the one years old class list.  The big cookies are the Valentine's Addison and Payson brought for the class.  There are about 9-10 in the class.
 Addison looking at her Valentine's box.  The Kindercare Learning Center made all the kids wait to see their Valentine's untill they got home.  No treats in class today except what they had for lunch.
Payson is looking at his Valentine's box.  He is not sure what to even think about it.

cake and presents

 Serving the cake with lited candles.  Orion then Bubba and Michelle are shown.  Pa is holding the cake.
 It took Orion three tries to get all 10 candles out, but he finally did it.
WOW!! This is what Orion has been asking for.  He has wanted it for weeks.  Bubba (Jerry Martin) got it for him.  It is a spy-kit.  Orion also got 2 wii games, some squirt guns, whoppi blowers and a sweat shirt.  He had a good birthday and went to bed very happy.

Orion's Birthday

 Minnie Mouse mylar balloon for Addison
 Payson and Elmo mylar balloon
               Payson really loved the big bouquet of balloons Macy bought at Party City for Orion. 
She bought Payson his own mylar balloon with Elmo from Sesame Street on it.  He loved that balloon too and played with it all day.
Addi-Belle loved the big bouquet of balloons that Macy bought for Orion also.....Macy bought a mylar balloon for Addi with a Minnie Mouse on it....but it wasn't a big huge bouquet like this one, so she did not like it, and did not play with it all day.  She pouted...but by the end of the day when she was able to hold the big bouquet, she was very happy.  She also decided that she likes her princess balloon after all.

Orion's 10th Birthday

           Orion's 10th Birthday on February 12, 2011  It is Abraham Lincoln's Birthday as well.


 Last week while shopping at the grocery, Orion saw a great clown cake that he wanted for his Birthday, but it was Super Bowl weekend and the stores were making a lot of different cakes for that celebration.  I told him that we would have to come back next week and see if they still had a clown cake.  I knew we couldn't save a cake for a week.  Well, it was not there.  Orion was disappointed of course, but he decided to pick this one out.  When the bakery clerk asked what his name was, we told him, and also spelled it for him.  Orion is a bit of an unusual name.  I told the clerk about one time when his summer school bus driver came to pick him up....she asked if this was where onion lived.  Boy I got a big laugh out of that one.  When the clerk came back he said by now seeing Orion's name on the cake...he could see why the bus driver would call him onion
