Future bedroom! RE-construction - Part 8 - Window Creation! (window #3!) This time with friends!!!

So we're pretty much window experts now! With 2 window removals and installs under our belts we're fellin' pretty good! We happened to have an excellent friend in town. Sir Gabe! We acquired his and our current rommate/friend don's help with the removal/install of our final window.
 
Who could say no to help from those 2!?!?!
Gabe and Don!
 
She's a doozy! That window in the back is actualy 6 feet wide and 4 feet tall.

We thought it might be a bit much for just 2 people. Especially since it's about 8 feet up on the outside. And great company is great!
 
So just like usual, cutting away the old window.

And there's our strong sexy helpers making sure nothing comes crashing down!

While Gabe and Don worked on framing the rough opening.

Once they framed the rough opening, we applied sheathing and attached the sill. Smiles for EVERYONE!

Then it was install time. Put the new guy in his hole and sealed him on up!

It looks to me that the window is sticking out about 2 inches now if you extend it only 6 more inches you can have your very own picture window!!

Seriously Bowbin!  You don't talk to me anymore, it has been AGES since I have gotten a story out of you, and now you think it is acceptable to not post anything on your blog for a MONTH, you know how I need to be kept entertained, and a month long wait, and nothing!  Okay but all joking aside congrats on your new place!
