Spring means painting, gardening, and being outside. I've been getting carried away with chalkboard paint - the red is the back of our front metal door, green in the kitchen, & black around my pots to label the plants. (not my idea - Pottery Barn & Martha Stewart). The kids have been playing lots of b-ball. I started seeds for our veg garden (egg cartons) & have been planting herbs indoors. I'm trying to make my dream kitchen come true. I also put up signs around the house - the one with the mirror is in our entry, Erika's "B" is in the living room, & the garden is in the kitchen. These pix have taken so long to download that I need to go to bed - 5:00 comes awfully early. Love, Shauna

The reunion this year was great, as always. It was so relaxing not to be in charge! Jan and Kent were our leaders and they did a great job...

It looks like Spring is a busy time in the Nathan and Shauna Biggs house. It is in the Tom and Susan Biggs house, too. (See our new blog). We are starting with a new roof and will, one by one, make other improvements. I love chalkboard paint, by the way.
wow -- you did good with such straight clean lines. Looks good!

I am usually skeptical, but Shauna's creativity always proves me wrong. She has been doing so much springtime stuff, it has been fun to watch. I guess that is what happens when you go through a cold winter like we did. Warm sunshine can do wonders.
Shauna, I painted my garage door to my house(that was always dirty with finger prints)with the black chalk board paint and ellie loves it and i put lists for Jer on it. It is the garage side, so you see it when you come in from the garage. I love it. I love the colors- when I bought my paint i saw that they now make the tintable chalk board paint. It looks great in your house.

I love it, too! And I forgot to say that I love it even more because Hannah painted all the cupboards by herself (3 coats!) last week during her spring break. All I did was tape. Go Hannah, go Hannah! - S
Hannah, my kitchen is next. I will have everything ready in Nov. including the taping all done. Deal? No, I'm just kidding. You did a great job though. Way to go. Love Connie
She seriously would do it. She loves organizing and everything like that. She's going to be a great homemaker.
