Saturday Photo Hunt....Doors

This door is part of a 147 year old church in Lexington, Virginia. Mr. Wonderful's dad was the pastor here from 1956 to 1976. Last weekend my Mr. Wonderful preached in this same church.

Doors can be intimidatings and serve as a barrier to keep people out. I think this door is inviting to welcome people in.

Another door with a story. Makes them more special!

Mine is finally up, as I finally rolled out of bed! Went to see the movie "Lake House" last night.
It was really good.

Plus I was dressing someone! LOL!

Have a wonderful Saturday GF!

I am so sad that I did not have a door to post today. All I could think of was to take a picture of the one I use here to measure the kids growth...but with all the pretty ones out there it just did not seem to go very well. I love yours though..GREAT idea...Hope all is well there. Almost time for church here...

Lexington is about an hour from my home town of Stauton. I'm pretty sure I know that church!

That is a beautiful door, the red looks nice against the brick background.

I hope you and Mr. Wonderful had a wonderful anniversary.
