So, last fall, dad gave J a little project to mull over in regards to replacing a large window at the lake house. Not such a big deal for my extremely handy boyfriend, he could do it in a weekend he said, no problem. So this past weekend that's exactly what we headed up to the lake with the intention of accomplishing. I was so excited when we drove up to see that the camellias were in bloom! So pretty!!

Now, I had just gotten off work that morning so I was a little sleepy and J decided he would take the door down and do some other things while I took a little nap. However, after I had jumped in the shower, I walked into the living room and see this...

He then informed me that the other two windows needing replacing as well and we needed to go buy more windows and more supplies at Home Depot. Long story/day short: 3 separate trips to the Home Depot in Alex City and a trip to the one in Auburn with a very patient and level-headed when it comes to any sticky situation boyfriend, and no sleep for Ashley who had been up for around 30 hours (which surprisingly was do-able)! The project as you can imagine lasted until late in the night...but I was just hopeful that I wouldn't have to go to sleep that night with nothing but a big hole for a wall in the living room!

Thankfully there were walls before bedtime, I told him he's like Bob Villa (except cuter)!!! :)

Good thing I had started this vegetable beef soup earlier in a crock pot, it was delicious at about 9 pm when we finally had a chance to eat it.

Amazingly, even though the task grew exponentially over the course of the weekend, it was finished and all it needs now is a little paint! He did an absolutely wonderful job and I know my parents appreciate it so much and will absolutely love it!
