OK, it has been a while since we were up to date here on our blog, so we thought we'd just show a couple before and after shots of our recent projects. We worked on cleaning out the garage one weekend, putting up shelves and cabinets, and just trying to organize and GET RID of stuff!

Then we got brave and started the window project. Our old aluminum-frame windows are moldy, drafty, and nasty, but replacing them is going to be quite the project. Getting them out is one thing, then you discover carpenter ant damage, have to replace a bunch of framing, tear out sheetrock, and destroy the recent paint job in the bathroom. Then, because we have aluminum siding you have to peel that back (hopefully without slicing yourself and going to the ER), maneuver the window in, then try to get the aluminum siding and all the pieces to go back where they were. Not fun... but one down, 5 more (and a door) to go!
