SPT- Welcome

If you were to come to our home you would know which of the many townhouse doors to enter because ours is Colonial blue. I felt that since we were in a rich colonial area that we ought to conform and show our colors. David's house has a red door, but ours is blue. There is rarely anything on our door, because of objections from my DH. Obviously screwing something into the door is unthinkable and the over-the-door hangers scratch his wood. After 14 years of marriage, he finally agreed to put some lights outside one Christmas, but used tape instead of putting holes in his wood or scratching it with the hangers. This is what happenedand hence we haven't had lights outside since. I have found a plastic over-the-door hanger and use it occasionally, but all the things hanging on it have to be soft, too and that makes it a little harder to do. My DH has had all the kids practice the statement, "wood on wood always scratches, metal on wood always damages." You might also notice our door being shut several times in a row. This is from said DH teaching the children each time they slam the door how to shut it correctly. Shhh, no one tell him that I don't do it quite the right way!:)

Hello, come in! Welcome! We have a small entry way with a much loved and long sought after deacons bench with storage. That's where all the shoes go. It still needs something else, but decorating has never been my strong suit, especially being military. It's hard to get things just the way you like them to then move and try all over in a different house with a different layout.

People always come in the front door. I would love a beautiful house with a nice front and back door and a yard, but that's not going to happen any time soon. So please come in the front door. And Lellie, if you came in through the garage it would do you no good. Our garage is detached!
