That's AWESOME!! This looks like my house on Monday.
We only had 4 put in... (all we could afford for Phase 1) HAHA!!
and can you believe that EVERY single window was ordered wrong.
So 4 wrong windows are half-in till the correct order comes. Blech.

Good luck for a smooth install and good energy efficient windows!! :)

OMG!! That is horrible! So far, so good here!! They have the front of the house done!!!

We couldn't afford any of the windows but it had to be done. We have 7 windows that had to be replaced ASAP and a few others that weren't too far behind. We thought we had another year or two to replace them but nope. We had to take out a loan because there was no way we could afford them otherwise!! Being a homeowner stinks...sometimes! LOL
 
I bet that is going to look so awesome we they're done! We just ordered five new windows for our house too. Ugh hate paying for stuff like that!
 
oh windows that actually open without hammers and such? they look so fresh and purty!!
 
They look awesome and I know that you will enjoy them. but, I feel your pain on the cost of it all!!
 
Oooh, lovely! I suffered through 35-year-old windows in our first home, and it was a real challenge to get them opened and closed! Now we have a newer home, and I admit I love these windows!

Are you taking before + after pics?
 
I'm sure new windows would make a huge energy efficiency difference in our 18 year old house, but I shudder to think what they would cost. We have 12-foot ceilings, and the windows in the "public" rooms go almost floor to ceiling with arched tops on many of them. Hope the rest of the installation went smoothly!
 
They are almost done..putting in some late hours today to finish up!!! They are beautiful!!!! I am so excited to have windows that open and also lock!!! YAY!!!

Our house is only 17 years old but the windows were trashed. I wish some builders would do it right the first time!!!

Next up is new french doors in our kitchen but that will be a while...the door was EXPENSIVE which is why we didn't have it done right now.
 
Yay, those are some pretty windows!

Our house is 62 years old and the windows are original to the house. I know it won't be long before we have to do the same.
