Hey you

Welcome to the blog. Here you’ll find daily dispatches and all the musings of our family’s adventures in our small town as we raise our kids, fix up our farm, and renovate houses, all through the lens of Keep & Delete, where we share the best (Keep) and worst (Delete) part of every day. Thanks for stopping by! We’re so glad you’re here.

A Wall of Windows

Here they are in all their glory.

When we drove out to the farm yesterday, we couldn’t get there fast enough. We knew the crew had been working all day the day before on framing and setting the windows, and that they would be in by now. And they were!

I wish I could show you in person how good they look. Pictures don’t do it justice because it’s hard to see the scale in photos. They make the room feel 20 feet tall and so much wider than it is. It just feels bigger all around and like you’re truly outside; one with the hill and the mountain. I can’t wait to see all the walls covered in the vertical boards and the windows trimmed out. It’s all going to look so good!

The view from where the kitchen sink will be is stunning. PJ purposely aligned the living room windows with the kitchen so that. the view from both rooms would be straight on:

The new windows are a bit taller than the old ones, allowing for about a foot more of the mountain view than before. Here’s the view now:

And here’s what the living room side of the house looks like from the outside:

I can’t imagine ever wanting to leave this place.
