What light on yonder...
"What light on yonder window break, it is the East" - the sunlight coming through the hole Ray put in our wall. We have been debating for some time how to change things in our house to make it feel bigger, to use the space we have better, et ectra... We've rearranged the couche and computer table and consider changing rooms with the kids to give them the bigger room but the biggest change of all so far has been the big hole Ray cut into our wall today opening up the wall between the dinning room and the livingroom. Amazingly the light from the deck into the livingroom already makes a huge difference and it's evening time. I am looking forward to the sunrise tomorrow morning as that will brighten the livingroom beautifully. Small changes can sure make a place feel different!! (ps. Ray just finished so the livingroom is a bit of a mess so just ignore that part of the photo). The studs will be out by tomorrow and window framed in asap. We planned on painting the kitchen anyway so at least we did this first.

Whoo hoo Ray! You do Cory proud! And if you're starving for a little more sunlight, come on over! We have a 30 ft wall with floor to ceiling south-facing jumbo windows. (Not to brag, by why on earth would someone build a house like this in a hot place so that the a/c doesn't have a chance to cool off the dumb thing?)

Cory did give Ray a lot of confidence in this construction thing that's for sure. Without having the opportunity to build that basement with him I think it would be a lot more intimidating. I am so proud to have a husband that builds/fixes/make holes in walls...I sure would not want to wash your windows as nice looking as they are!!

Nice job, Ray!
Make sure you show us pictures of the completed project!!
Lisa-Joy and John!
Hey. Are you keeping all four studs in the opening?
