New Windows

Yea! We finally got our new windows in our front room! Our old set of five skinny windows was ready to go. Of the five old windows, two had cracks in the glass. They were all so drafty in the winter, and grew great big ice chunks on them on the coldest days. (That's how one of the windows got its crack.) Two of the five were casements that were supposed to crank out, but it took a lot of effort to crank them open, and even more to get them closed. Someone would have to go push on them from the outside while the other person cranked and latched them on the inside. But now, that's all in the past! We opted to change the look of things a bit, with one really big picture window, and two casements on either side. There's so much more to see now!

Here are a few pictures of the giant hole in the wall, and then the new window being installed.
