This giveaway is now closed. Congratulations to Katy who blogs at The Country Blossom for winning the canvas print from UPrinting. 
Yay, another fabulous giveaway from UPrinting.
UPrinting provides quality promotional printing in addition to the lovely canvas print that they are going to be giving away. Our family has several of UPrinting’s products (poster sized prints, business cards, wall stickers and greeting cards) and we have been delighted with the quality of the products and the promptness of the service each and every time we’ve worked with them.
UPrinting is offering one of my readers a 16 x 20 rolled canvas print of their favorite photo. In my opinion, there is nothing nicer to put on the wall than large prints of photos of the children. Spring is coming and with the nice weather come lovely outside photos,
that will make wonderful wall decor.

I am so happy spring is coming because the kids can get outside more and we can go to the park and have tons of picnics. Also, the kids and I are so ready to get our hands in the dirt and plant our vegetable garden. Yay!
[Reply]
I get to pull weeds and plant flowers, my husband get to plant the veggie garden. We hope to share it with grandchildren!

I’m finally able to take my kids on walks everyday again. And we can go to the playground now that the snow has melted and we can see it again.

I’m looking forward to Spring because we will be able to get back outside more often- we’ve even been on several family walks this week! My big girls are anxiously waiting for all the snow to melt so they can play soccer with Daddy in the backyard… in their galoshes most likely!

I’m looking forward to spring, for the season of stomping in puddles with our daughter, rejoicing in new life, and especially the Easter season of the church.

I am thrilled that spring is coming because it means no more gray skies and beautiful flowers. And more time outside for the 4 year old.

I would love this!! I agree family photos are the best way to decorate.
THe reason I love spring… is to watch the rebirth of the earth every year! After being snowed in all winter, it’s wonderful to see the first colors of spring!
I also love the spring settings for wonderful photographs of my family!

I am so excited spring is here. I live in Arizona and we only get a few weeks of that perfect weather in the spring before it really starts getting HOT! So, I enjoy ever moment of it and try to be outside with the kids as much as possible, before we are confined to the air conditioning and swimming pool.

We live in the northwoods of Wisconsin so we won’t be getting spring here for a while. It has been amazingly warm these past few weeks here, though, so it’s given us a taste of what will actually be here to stay around the end of April. I love all the blossoms and new flowers that spring time brings–and a chance for the kids to get outside more!!!

Spring is coming….I have heard the birds the past two days…it has been raining instead of snowing the past 3 days….I am so ready for a fresh new opportunity to embrace life and entertain my family and friends. We are preparing for a new deck off the back of the house that will face the lake….and a firepit for some late night gatherings. After a season of grieving, I am sooo ready!
[Reply]
I can’t wait to watch my little 18-month-old discover all the flowers and leaves and birds of spring… she’s right at that age where she’s able to start appreciating it all.
I’m also dying to go on a picnic!

I love the spring for many reasons, but my favorite is probably the opportunity to grow and harvest flowers to give bouquets to brighten peoples days.
[Reply]
Spring is such an amazing time of the year. It’s a reminder that “old things have passed away and behond all things are becoming new”. It’s a reminder, to me, of the promises that we have in Jesus. My husband and I are both in a graduate program to become chiropractors and so balancing the energy and lifestyle with 5 kids can be challenging. Spring brings with it a time where we as a family get to be more active, take hikes in the mountains, go fishing and picnicing and just enjoy being together as a family.

Spring is a time of cleansing and renewal, both physically and spiritually. We are able to switch to the spring/ summer clothes, we get new animals(pigs, chickens) and Easter! Every drive shows more flowers in peoples yards, and being outdoors is so freeing after the harshness of winter. There are tons more reasons(Spring is my favorite season)but I will stop myself here

I’m happy spring is coming because I can finally get some serious gardening done so that the yard will look like a family lives here instead of the bachelor pad it has been.
[Reply]
Definition of spring- a time when it is OKAY! to play in the mud while looking for rocks and hidden treasures. Also OKAY to remain outside AFTER the skies open up and downpour on our heads
To quote my nine-year old…”It was GREAT to get dirty today!”
That was our adventure for today.

Our 1 year old already fell headfirst into a muddy, scum covered pond this spring. Spring is a great time for dirt!

I have tons of reasons to happy it’s spring: no more SNOW, I’ll get peace while working in my garden (a rare thing with so many children), watching my 18 mo discover flowers and bugs, today my bil will be coming home for spring break from USMA, the birds are making their music/songs and my absolute favorite: by the end of spring I’ll be holding my new daughter in my arms (that makes 5 boys & 5 girls!).

Oh I wish spring were coming, but here in Australia it’s autumn (fall) we have to look forward to, and we don’t even get the awesome red leaves everywhere like you americans seem to. Still, it will be good to actually be able to use my sheets when I go to bed, and not find myself sweating after a day in front of the computer!
