What a Pane! (Window Pane that is!)

This weekend we got another opportunity to go watch my niece play ball. She did really well at this game. She got a really good hit without the help of the t stand! Those kids are so much fun to watch!

As is our new game time tradition, we stopped for lunch at Culver's afterwards. As we sat there, Marc and I discussed what to do with the rest of the afternoon. Do we go home and weed? No, that's been done. Do we go home and watch the Borne series all in a row? No, we'd end up feeling bad about wasting a wonderfully nice afternoon outdoors. What should we do then? How about replace that window that's been sitting in the garage since last September?! :)

As you might have seen from previous posts, we're still working hard at remodeling our home. It needs a lot of TLC and we've been chipping away at it for the last four years (yes - we've owned our house for 4 years now....Man, time flies!) You may have remember the window in question:

Not the best pictures, but you get the idea. Below are pictures of the work that went into getting one step closer to where we want to be with our home!

Trim now needs to be put up and more on the oustide of the house to get it ready for painters. Each project we complete is a step closer! Marc does a fantastic job at doing things around the house - especially since many of the things he's never done before! (Like cut into the side of a house and replace aluminum siding to perfectly frame a new window!) If it makes him neverous to take on new projects - he sure doesn't show it! I'm lucky to have him!


PS - the Little Bug slept through this entire process! How lucky are we to have such a great sleeper!


More to come...
