"Yeah... we're going to call a contractor tomorrow or the day after to come out and start working on it right away. Dad figures it will be a challenge to get it living ready in six months, but he's always been a bit of a party pooper about those kinds of things. People build whole houses in less than six months." He nodded as if to reassure himself, "And mom wants the two of you to talk about interior designers." He rolled his eyes a bit, playfully - he knew Lacey would prefer to do it by herself. "Their wedding gift to us, they said." He had tried, anyways, but the money that he did have himself was money that was ultimately the family's anyways.</font color> -- The Lowell Residence

Lacey scrunched her nose at the mention of Interior designers- the contractors and such she could understand- neither of them new the first thing about building a house or making one safe- but they could at least decorate it themselves. "We don't need interior designers... with your artistic flare and my ... hard work effort... we'll manage the decorating part fine" She grinned a little- she was pretty convinced that she could talk Eliza around to their side- and probably even get a paintbrush in her hand too. Carpenters and builders were plenty enough to pay for. "It doesn;t matter if its not ready right away- we can buy a trailer and live in that until its done" She grinned, tipping her face upto his for a kiss- she had grown up in a trailer so living in one again wouldnt be a big deal.
