Drum Roll Please!

Okay, so most of the siding is complete.  There was a minor issue with communication and they need to come back to finish framing in the front window, but other than that it is all done!  These pictures really don't do any justice to how great the house looks now.  Not only were we able to remove the window in the bathroom that went nowhere, but we were able to cover up where the other two windows in the kitchen were so that our house looks complete.  As much as I loved the patched-in-siding look (wink, wink), I am happy that it is gone! We also got all new gutters which really finish off the place.  This place is really starting to look pretty good!!

No, there is not a window there... that is the hole that the old window left!  If you haven't seen our house yet, please know that this is literally half of the first floor...  Needless to say, I was a little concerned with such a large hole in my wall!  

Ignore the fact that there is a little missing siding around the new front window because that will be fixed this week.  Looks pretty good, right?  I LOVE that all of the windows are functioning and properly sealed up!

Our new gutters!  And, to the left of the window on the side of the house was once another window in the kitchen.  Today you would never know!  

The back.  A pretty big difference here!  I can't help but sit in our patio furniture and stare at our "new" house!

The inside of our living room with the new window.  It is incredible how much bigger our room seems now with this new window! 

It was so nice to have my parents here for the weekend.  My Dad and Tom were able to get a TON of stuff done around the house!  This place is really starting to come together and I feel like the end really might be in sight!  We enjoyed a couple of good meals out and a good meal cooked on the grill.  We even managed to find the time for a walk to Dairy Queen.  Considering all the madness... it was a perfect weekend!
