Operation New Windows

Mom and Dad Meendering came down last weekend and helped install new windows in our house. I was really freaked out about just taking out our windows and having a big hole in our house, but jon ensured me that it would go smoothly. It took a full day of hard work, but we got 6 of the 7 windows installed. Our house still had the original single pane windows from when it was built in 1930 with counter weights in the walls. They were difficult to open and many panes had small cracks. We figured it would be a good investment to put in new windows before winter, plus I was not a big fan of the old aluminum storm window from the exterior of our house, so the new windows were a great update. Here are a few pictures of our hard work.
