Chapter 48: A Family Affair

Our meetings on Thursday were quick and efficient. We discussed the fireplaces and some small electrical issues and the contractor gave us 'homework.' He asked us to find the flooring we want for the entire house, the lighting fixtures and to look for a front door. Yesterday, we looked at Lowe's for some lighting fixtures and the front door. We made a few decisions and wrote down model numbers for some fans and lights.

Today was a family outing! Mr. and Mrs. Patrick, Joe and I left the house at 9:30 for Pittsburgh. Along the way we stopped at Joe's Grandparents house so that I could meet them. We then continued to our house on Mt. Washington in order for Mr. and Mrs. Patrick to check in on the progress of the construction. We had lunch in the South Side Works and then went to Phipps Conservatory so that they could see our wedding venue. They both liked it! We had planned to go to a flooring store but they were closed when we got there. Lastly, we stopped at Mr. Patrick's warehouse and then headed back to New Castle. It was a busy day!
