Just Swell...

In the last few weeks, we have had massive amounts of rain. Our yard is a jungle because everytime we get ready to cut the grass, it rains. 

The children have been more wound up than usual because of the rain.  They had all gotten used to playing outside.  We all love it.

But there has been a bigger issue with the rain.

We have a wooden door.  It's not 100% our style to be honest, but was very low on our "to do list." 

Some of the door knob and lock finish is coming off.

And the gold really isn't our thing.

But with the humidity the door is stuck.  Seriously!  It has caused the door to swell making it very hard to open and close.

For now, we are considering it an added security feature and we are hoping that with fall soon approaching and then winter that the door shrinks back.  We are going to try to make it to next summer before replacing it with some other kind of material. 

Just another quirk.  An annoying quirk, but just a quirk.  *slow deep breaths*
