A lot of special things happened this week. First of all, we passed our plumbing rough inspection! That was a huge milestone that we couldn’t have accomplished without our master plumber, who just saw happens to be Katie’s Dad. Once the plumbing passed, we were able to bring in the concrete truck and start filling in everything that we had busted up. As a special tribute, Lindsey’s Dad brought along a bag of vanilla and a bag of sugar for Lindsey and Katie to pour into the concrete while it was still wet. Now the building is officially theirs!

Next up on the agenda is to start framing so that we can run more pipes and get the electricians in. There is a LOT of old wiring in the building, so the electricians will certainly have their hands full. After that, we’ll be able to dry wall and do the HVAC, but we’re getting a little ahead of ourselves. One step at a time!
