the red door

I've always LOVED the look of different colored doors on houses... like a green door on a white house or a red door on a brown house. I've been bugging my sweet, overworked hubby to paint our door red for the past year, but he just never had the time. I finally started hinting that I might just do it myself... and suddenly he decided he might have enough time! So in one day he painted our plain boring white door a beautiful barn red- I'm loving it! we decided to replace the shiny brass hardware while we were painting. The final look is just what I had in mind.

this is the best 'before' picture I could find... it makes me laugh because it was

only taken a year ago and my girls look so different already!

And here is the after picture! It looks a little orange in this photo... in real life
its slightly more red. and of course theres our sweetie pie in the pic, too!

we've had a busy week... school started!! our oldest started on wednesday and our
second starts kindergarten tomorrow... traditional 'first day of school' photos coming soon!
