Who’s ready for a little Springtime action?

A brief pause...

So here we are, February.  One of the most strangely spelled months in the year and also the shortest.  You know what’s not the shortest?  Me.  I’m getting bigger and taller, much taller.  My dad once challenged me as he mentioned that he is the tallest member of our family (that we know of anyway) and so I took that as a personal provocation from which I will base my motivation to become the tallest, fastest, most awesomest Spivachaud ever known.  I, of course, plan on being a gentle giant except when it comes to Chris Andersen.  No love for you turdman.

So Winter is here…  Yeah, that’s all.

In an attempt to maintain sanity (which is constantly challenged by the dark, gray, wet outsidy land), my parents have been taking trips all over the place!  We went to Sunriver, just south of Bend.  It was cool, except everything was closed.  Look at our beautiful championship golf course, CLOSED! Perhaps you and your family would like to visit one of the various state parks in the area? CLOSED, CLOSED! Oh, sorry about that, how about a nice little hike to a waterfall? DOESN’T EXIST! Oh, well, sorry, I guess you can just hang out and watch tv then. At least we had a beautiful sunset the first night we got there so that was cool.  We stopped in Bend on the way home and dad convinced mom to eat at an Indian restaurant.  I know right?  An Indian restaurant in the middle of nowhere Oregon.  Actually, it was delicious.  I myself had a Nan-a-thon and it was delightful.

The next weekend we got to get on an airplane and fly to Spokane!!!  It was pretty cool, at least I think, I napped the whole way.  I will certainly be telling my toddling friends about it now that I’m in the mile high club.  What?  That’s where you sleep in an airplane right?  Why are you still laughing?  Anyway my dad spent last weekend with us at Grandma and Grandpa’s house and we all got to celebrate Gaga’s birthday!  We drove to Idaho and hung out in Coeur d’Alene with aunt Shirley.  I spent some time with my cousins Mariah and Jayden playing piano and wearing a cowboy hat.  It was cool.  Then, the next day I got to hang out with a new friend named Avelyn.  She is cool and had awesome shoes.  Other than that, I’m still hangin’ in Spokane waiting to see just how long my hair will grow.  Seriously though, I think I’m a couple inches away from qualifying for locks for love.  Anyhoo, I hope everyone is doing well and getting through the winter and I want to send a special shout out to my auntie Deborah who has just finished up her final chemo treatment today!!!!!  I love you and hope that you’re doing well.  Say hi to my me’mere and don’t party too much you two.  Here are some pictures from the last few weeks:
