We have windows

Why is it that the day the windows are due to be delivered, the street workers rip up our crossover and lay a new concrete gutter. I warned them early in the morning that we would be getting windows delivered today and they said they will ensure they can get access.

The state of the driveway
Due to the road being closed, the truck had to stop up the street and chat to the street workers. It all turned out well though, because the workers actually helped carry the windows down the street and up our sideway. Awesome work fellas!

So here they are in the sideway when they arrived.

Windows for boys rooms uptairs

Small windows for over the bifold doors

The big one for downstairs living room
One quick call to Dave's brother who was close by and we had help to move them undercover. Awesome job Steve!Love your work.

Here are the two that will go up the top facing the street.

And these are the highlights for the retreat.

Oh and one other exciting thing happened today. I received my copy of Young House Love's book. I just love there renovating blog so had to get the book.

So the next job is to start painting the windows so we can install them.Not looking forward to that.

Cheers,
Nat

  1. How exciting! I am a fan of Young House Love as well, and was lucky enough to have a US friend send me the octopus hook from their Target range this year! One of my favourite things..

    1. Thanks for reading Mrs BC. That's cool that you have American friends to send you things like that. They get such nice homewares over there.

  3. It was nice of those workers to help your deliverymen get the windows across your yard. It's good that they kept their word when they ensured you that you will get your windows in time. Hahaha! In any case, the windows look lovely, Natalie! You have such great taste. Thanks for sharing that! All the best! :)
