my almost done dutch door

This past weekend, we took the girls to the hardware store and got the tools and parts needed to make my Dutch door. Richie pretty much did the work, but didn't get to finish the entire project because he got called in to work on a rig. so, i guess we know what he'll be doing this weekend!

our plain ol' un-dutch back door

The only things left to do on the door is repaint parts of it, and he's going to add a shelf on the bottom part just under where it opens. it's really nice being able to let some air in, but still be able to keep the baby from wandering out into the back driveway. Richie's the best!!!
