New Door. New Attitude!

Today I have to tell you about the newest addition to the Scott family home: Our BRAND NEW DOOR! Not as excited as me? I understand, you're jealous. It's cool.

Anywho...I finally convinced the hubs that we desperately needed a new front door. If you knew Nick and I during our complete home redo (speaking of I need to post some more before and afters...maybe another post) you would know that I was the voice of reason during the whole process: "No we shouldn't do that. It will be fine if we just do this. No we should re-use those. We really don't have money for that." so on and so forth. However for some reason Nick did not think the front door was that bad. I honestly think it was because he was just thinking about how many Nikes he could have gotten off EBay. My Dad also didn't think we needed a new door -

Dad: Does your door close?
Me: well yes....
Dad: Does it lock?
Me: ummm yes
Dad: well then you don't need a new door!

In my opinion your front door is like the smile of your home. If you have a beautiful face but crooked yellow teeth you will not be getting a modeling career. So I won and finally got my new doors! We also got a new storm door because let's face it, you can't very well put a crappy old storm door over a beautiful new door! Drum roll please...

I must also say another Thank You to our great friends Callan and Amy whose wedding present to us was a donation to the Scott family door fund. Your plaques are being engraved as we speak ;)
