Can you tell?

We love our chalkboard wall. (Have you noticed it shows up in posts from time to time?) Sometimes it's menus. Sometimes it's favorite sayings. Sometimes it's surprise announcements. Many times it's just messy scribbles. Lately, we've been in a countdown mood. First for Max's birthday, and now for our highly anticipated spring vacay. The excitement builds each morning when we tick down another day. For a peek at some more kitchen chalkboard ideas, check out Apartment Therapy's chalkboard roundup.
