New Windows (Mostly)

Today our new windows were installed!  This is something we have wanted to do since we moved into this house, but the cold winter and the drafty old windows pushed us forward.  They were ordered about a month ago and came in last week.  World of Windows spent 12 hours on them today and got the old ones out and the new ones mostly in.  They still have 3 hours of work tomorrow to finish putting the outside trim and caulk in place.


On another note, Sean taught me a new word the other day: Reggiano.  Apparently real parmesan cheese, from several regions in northern Italy, is called Parmigiano-Reggiano - especially on one of Sean's three favorite shows: Rachel Ray.  Last week Dziadziu broke out a jar of Parmigiano-Reggiano and Sean recognized it, somehow, and called it by its correct name.  No one is really clear where he picked that up.

Missing Master Bedroom Window

Sean using his new emergency exit.  We have told him the new windows are so strong they will keep out the longhorns (which he is afraid of coming in the window at night.)  I know, don't start with me.

Sean peeling off the window sticker (for Aunt Keri, who hates for people to buy new windows and leave the stickers on)

One more sticker left...
