We Have New Windows!

After much deliberation in the Blachly household, we decided to go for it! Especially with the tax credit, saving energy and getting an updated look, we couldn't go wrong.

It was an exciting day! Joseph was really into the guys working and sawing all over the house (except when it was nap time...) and kept him entertained all day. Luckily the weather was nicely brisk and not too hot or too cold, since we had gaping holes in our house.

Here is the first one all complete. It was a pretty big difference to see the stark white and took me a while to get used to it. From the inside it's a world of difference and makes the house look so much nicer.

The guest room was the first one and took the longest, but then they got rolling, smashing glass and sledge hammering our brick all over the place. Ha. Not really, they were very efficient and very clean - only minimal broken glass.

Little Joey's gaping hole. I love love love our new windows!!

The little helper checking it all out. It passed inspection.

The kitchen was the hardest and they saved it for last. And we had them remove the horribly sorry counter outside the window. It was fairly handy to have around, but it needed to be repaired, so until we can replace it - if we choose to - it looks much cleaner and nice.

Check out that sweet GOLD aluminum frame. Can't beat the 70's. But now we've joined this decade with our new windows and with the triple panes, hope to hear much less of our neighbors too. Take that late night party go-ers next door!
