Building Zone: Installing Windows

We waited through the cold winter months still grateful that no matter how much snow came to us this year, the house had a roof and plastic over the window bays to protect it. During this time we planned the soon purchase of windows. Winter being the "off-season" for building supplies and materials, you can often save even more money buying during those months. We had already found where to buy good quality windows at a good price. We were soon again blessed with another gift from a family which would allow us to purchase all of the windows for the house! This was cause for another jumping for joy party with our kids! David was soon able to order them and they were delivered in February so we just sat them in the house to be installed once the temperatures were warm enough.
As soon as the temps were warm for a few days, David went out to prepare the window bays and install the first window. He chose to install Rebekah's bedroom window first. She was so excited!

Beka anxiously watching David as he installed her bedroom window.

Over several days David and I were able to install most of them ourselves. There were a few which were too heavy for me to lift, move around, and carry upstairs. So we waited on those until we could get another man to help do the lifting.
