Even more attractive from the street...

View from the street...Y-I-K-E-S !

I came home from work today, and saw the front of my house a complete disaster. It's all good though, because the new windows are being put in, and siding is going up! It's pretty UN-attractive from the street, but give it a few more days/weeks...and it'll be a totally different story.

The front two windows (on the bottom level) are a larger size than the ones we had before on the house. John chose this because when the front porch is built on, it won't look so awkward. Larger windows meant cutting into the sheet rock- a.k.a. big mess. All of the other new windows going in are the size, which makes for no mess, and still a beautiful improvement on what was there.

I'm really looking forward to seeing the end product: new windows in every room, new custom trim around each window, new front porch off the house, new front door, new french door going to the back deck, new garage door (already done), new roof (already done), and new chimney (already done).
