More windows go in and new toilets!

It was a busy week at the house!  Many new windows were installed and window trim either made or replaced.  The children's rooms were prepped for painting, and their bathrooms have the first coat on the walls.  They also now have baseboard heat in their wing -- all the old radiators have been removed, and they even have toilets!

Look what they discovered!  An old louvered "door"
that slides either to the right or left to cover a
set of the double windows!
